NEED TO KNOW
Graham Norton is on the guest list for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding — but when it comes to the details, mum’s the word!
The British talk show host, 62, is keeping his lips sealed surrounding the pop superstar’s nuptials to the football star, he revealed on the Jan. 26 episode of his Wanging On podcast. After co-host Maria McErlane brought up the wedding of her “favorite,” Swift, Norton immediately shut down the topic, citing “NDAs” as his reasoning.
“Ah, lovely Taylor Swift,” said the talk show host, as McErlane interjected, “Who invited you to her wedding!”
“I can say nothing,” Norton said, drawing a gasp from his co-host. “I’ve signed so many NDAs.”
McErlane also jokingly invited herself to the seemingly star-studded nuptials as her podcast co-host’s plus-one — but the spot’s already been filled, Norton said.

“That is very, very exciting, and I’m very much looking forward to coming with you,” she joked, as Norton fired back, “Over my husband’s dead body.”

Swift, 36, first hinted that Norton would witness her say “I do” to Kelce, 36, while discussing engagement details with the host on The Graham Norton Show in October 2025 — her first TV appearance after the Kansas City Chiefs tight end proposed to her over the summer.
“He really crushed it when it came to surprising me,” the singer-songwriter told Norton about Kelce. “We had actually filmed a podcast episode — he has a podcast called New Heights — so we filmed the podcast for about three or four hours … and meanwhile behind his house, he was having the whole back garden turned into this.”
“And one of the things that he put in there, very strategically, was a wall of hedges that weren’t there before. And inside the hedges was my tour photographer hiding in bushes that had not previously been there,” Swift said. “He went all out — 10 out of 10.”
Asked if she would reveal more about their wedding plans, Swift slyly told Norton, “You’ll know.”

As for when she and Kelce will turn their attention to wedding planning, the “Opalite” singer — who was promoting her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, at the time — said, “I want to do the album stuff first, and the wedding is what happens after in terms of planning.”
“I think it will be fun to plan,” she added of the nuptials.
Norton has long been a vocal supporter of Swift, even referring to himself as an “out-in-the-open Swiftie.”
The talk show host made the comments after Sherri Shepherd brought up his previous remark that Swift is “so close to normal person” who could “change the economy of the country just by showing up” on a January 2025 episode of Sherri. “It was so nice,” Shepherd said of Norton’s praise for the singer. “I was like, are you an undercover Swiftie?”
“Oh, I’m not undercover, I’m an out-in-the-open Swiftie. I love her,” he said in return. “What’s extraordinary about Taylor Swift, because here’s a woman — she could change the economy of a country just by showing up. And yet she seems so grounded, so normal. It’s fascinating.”
