Former “Real Housewives of New York City” star Bethenny Frankel took to TikTok to throw some major shade at Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce.
The controversial remarks came in the wake of Kelce’s newfound fame, largely attributed to his rumored romance with pop sensation Taylor Swift.
Frankel did not mince words as she unleashed a scathing tirade against Kelce.
“I’ve never heard the man’s name in my life,” she declared in a TikTok video, as reported by Page Six.
“It’s not only that she put him on the map – she drew the map, she charted the course that we’re gonna take when we utilize the map, and she took him like a claw in the arcade as a toy and put him on the map,” Frankel continued.
The reality TV alum emphasized her lack of familiarity with Kelce, saying,
“When I look at him, he looks like a guy who would be in like a crime movie, like a tough Russian Albanian, just has like two lines in a scene, like, ‘it’s done, looks tough,'” she added.
Frankel’s outburst comes in the wake of Taylor Swift’s attendance at the Kansas City Chiefs game on September 24, where she was spotted in a suite next to Kelce’s mom Donna, celebrating and jumping with joy after Kelce scored a remarkable touchdown.
All thanks to Taylor Swift, the NFL game attracted a staggering 24.3 million viewers.
Sunday night’s NFL telecast drew a total audience of 24.32 MILLION viewers following Taylor Swift’s appearance at the Kansas City Chiefs game.
The program scored the highest audience among female demographics ages 12-17 and 18-49 this week.

In a recent episode of his podcast, “New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce,” the tight end, reflected on the game and the star-studded company of Taylor Swift:
“I just thought it was awesome that everybody in the suite had nothing but good things to say about her,” he said. “The friends and family … she looked amazing and everybody was talking about her in great light and on top of that the day went perfect for Chiefs fans, of course.”
