Everything Taylor Swift Said About Marriage Before Travis Kelce Wedding

It's arguably been a cruel summer for New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel and his wife Jen Vrabel.

But the married duo was apparently able to shake off any drama to attend Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's July 3 wedding. 

The NFL coach, 50, and his bride of 27 years were spotted leaving New York City's Langham Hotel clearly ready for a white veil occasion in a sleek tux and an embellished light blue dress, respectively—their first joint public appearance since Mike was photographed getting close with reporter Dianna Russini while vacationing in Arizona.

From there, the two climbed into a getaway car, presumably bound for the festivities at Madison Square Garden

While Dianna, who shares two sons with husband Kevin Goldschmidtresigned from her position at The Athletic, saying in an April 14 statement she had "no interest in submitting to a public inquiry that has already caused far more damage than I am willing to accept," Mike simply took a brief time out

In April, Mike, a former linebacker who became head coach of his former squad in 2025, announced that he'd be skipping part of the upcoming NFL draft to seek counseling

"I promised my family, this organization and this team that I was going to give them the best version of me that I can possibly give them," he said in a statement obtained by ESPN April 22. "In order to do so, I have committed to seeking counseling, starting this weekend." 

Having put a great deal of thought into his game plan, he noted it was "something I would advise a player to do if I was counseling them. I have always wanted to lead by example, and I believe this is what I have to do to be the best husband, father and coach that I possibly can be."

And his team didn't throw a flag on the play, even after new images surfaced April 23 of him and Dianna sitting together inside the Tribeca Tavern in March 2020, including one that showed him appearing to lean in for a kiss. 

"Mike has been open with us about his commitment to being the best version of himself for his family, this team and our fans, and we respect the steps he is taking to follow through on that commitment," the Patriots organization told E! News in an April 23 statement. "We are confident in the leadership and communication Mike has established with our personnel staff throughout this pre-draft process."

His team was huddled around him as well. 

"We're here for Coach," starting quarterback Drake Maye told 7News in an April 29 interview. "We love Coach. What he does for us and has done for us this past year, you can't speak it into words. Thankfully, he's our head coach." 

Continued the QB, "We know he's dealing with some stuff off the field and out of the coaching world, but we're here for him and I know he's gonna come back."

And with a blank space in his schedule ahead of NFL training camps, Mike decided to show his wife some incredible things at Taylor and Travis' NYC nuptials. 

Of course, they weren't the only ones taking in the magic, madness, heaven, sin inside Madison Square Garden. Check out which other celebrities suited up for the big day.
