Taylor Swift revealed Travis Kelce mistook Hugh Grant’s wife, Anna Elisabet Eberstein, for Barbie director Greta Gerwig, while in the VIP tent at one of the dates on her Eras Tour.
The record-breaking artist was a guest on Late Night With Seth Meyers on Wednesday (October 8), promoting her latest album ‘The Life Of A Showgirl’. While there, she discussed her fiancée, NFL player Kelce, and one particular moment during an Eras Tour concert in London where the athlete made an embarrassing mix-up.
“I was like, ‘I got to let you know, your favourite director is in the tent’. He loves Greta Gerwig” she recalled. “And so he was like, ‘oh, my God, I really want to tell her how funny I thought Barbie was’. And I’m like, ‘you absolutely should. She’s the sweetest, giggliest person to tell that you like their work. You’re going to love her.’”
She then explained that after the show, Kelce mentioned that he told Gerwig a joke about how much he loved Barbie, but that she gave a muted response. He also talked about how the filmmaker seemed very close to actor Hugh Grant.

Confused, Swift said: “I’m seeing all over the internet is just videos of Travis dancing with Greta all night like they’re best friends. And I’m like, ‘Travis, here’s a video of you with Greta. It feels like she thought the joke was funny.’ And he goes, ‘oh, that’s not Greta.’”

Realising his mistake, she explained to her partner: “Is there any chance at all, baby, that you complimented Hugh Grant’s wife, Anna, on her movie Barbie, said, ‘I’m just Ken too’, and she politely nodded because she didn’t have the heart to tell you she didn’t direct it? And is there any chance that the people that look like soulmates are Hugh Grant and his soulmate?”
Anna Elisabet Eberstein is a television producer, who has been married to Grant since 2018. The couple share three children.
Taylor Swift continues to fly high with her new album, which recently broken a streaming-era record previously held by Adele. Elsewhere, Travis Kelce revealed his reaction to Swift’s innuendo-laden new track ‘Wood’.
