Will this ruin the friendship?
On the heels of Will Compton putting Travis Kelce on blast over being snubbed from the groom’s wedding, Compton’s “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast co-host is doing the same.
Taylor Lewan went on a scathing rant during Tuesday’s episode — while insisting he was “taking the high road” — about not being invited to Friday’s star-studded Madison Square Garden nuptials.
The ex-Tennessee Titans player initially felt “all good” about not going to the “intimate” wedding until he saw the guest list.
“Dude, there’s so many people!” the 34-year-old exclaimed after highlighting the attendees he didn’t recognize, including soccer star Alex Morgan and “Saturday Night Live” alum Bowen Yang.
“I’m not taking away from how amazing this wedding probably was,” he added. “Listen, I’m not taking away from all these people going there.”
However, he asked “how many people … MSG hold[s]” and asked, “So what your’e telling me is I’m not top 9,500 in Travis’ life? He doesn’t have 9,500 [people] in his phone.”
Lewan wondered, “Is this a personal shot that Will and I are taking? Yo, we’re boys, I’ve known you for over 10 years.
“We text and call each other,” he continued. “I’m just thinking, dude, I’m clearly doing something wrong in our friendship, clearly something wrong. … There’s clearly a blind spot I’m not seeing.”
Lewan went on to share their “last two texts to each other,” with Kelce thanking the ex-athlete for sending “congratulations” on tying the knot.
Although Lewan recorded a voice message for insight on what kind of “discussion” went into not inviting himself and Compton, 36, he never sent it.
“I am so happy for you … could not be more excited for you and your beautiful wife,” Lewan said in the since-deleted message. “I just want to know what was the thought process for inviting people because I’m seeing a lot of individuals here and am wondering how it all happened breaking it all down. Hope you’re good.”
At the end of the day, he quipped, “I don’t even know if I would have gone, so it’s all good. I probably could have made it.”
His comments come one day after Compton made headlines for feeling “flabbergasted” over the diss since “everybody else” watched the couple say “I do.”
The retired linebacker, who has been a staple at Kelce’s Tight End University summit over the years, doubled down in a Monday tweet after discussing his “stunning” absence on “Wake Up Barstool.”
“Don’t think I’ve ever seen Dean Blandino at Tight End University,” he wrote via X.
Chase Daniel, who played with Kelce between 2013 and 2015, replied to the tweet, writing, “Don’t think I’ve ever seen @_willcompton throw Kelce his first NFL TD … even in preseason.”
The retired quarterback, 39, later clarified he was being “sarcastic” and wished the newlyweds a “happily ever after.”
