Swift was asked if the song ‘Paper Rings’ on her ‘Lover’ album was about Purdy, whose team lost to Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl with the superstar musician in the stands.

‘I don’t mind Brock Purdy.” Swift said in video shared by a parent. “He put me through a lot last February but it all went better.’

Purdy and the 49ers took a lead late in the fourth quarter, but Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes rallied his team to tie the game before the end of regulation and win in overtime for Kansas City’s third Super Bowl title in five seasons.

“I like Travis now,’ the girl said.

Swift responded: “Me too. That’s an absolute yes on that one.”

Before the Super Bowl, Purdy joked that he was prepared to potentially disappoint Swift by winning the game.
