Author Nancy Brooks // Country Writer, Beasley Media Group

Like the rest of the world, Lainey Wilson has watched the relationship between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. She commented on the couple in a recent interview.

When asked if she thought the romance was being blown out of proportion, she replied, “I think it’s real.” She said that she believes the truth is they’re both “extremely successful at what they do.” Lainey added that she was sure they “have a lot in common.” Wilson said, “The truth is, ya know, even me and Duck (her boyfriend Devlin Hodges’ nickname), he knows what it’s like to work really hard for something and kinda start from the ground up.”

Lainey said she hoped the super couple are “madly in love” and that they can “ride off into the sunset.”

After being prompted with the notion that if they break up, Swift can get some good songs out of it. Wilson said she would be “fine with either.”

Many fans responded to her post, including one who said, “The ULTIMATE Cowgirl!” Another fan commented, “We actually saw her perform at the Grand Ole Opry a few days ago; she has an amazing voice.” One more fan offered, “We Love Lainey!! You Are Killin’ it!!”

4 Lainey Wilson Collaborations That Have People Talking

  • Lainey and Lauren Alaina - "Thick As Thieves" (2023)

    This fun song started a viral trend that had Blake Shelton and Kane Brown among the country stars joining Lauren on social media to dance. Lainey shines on this song, as does Lauren. The lyrics include, “Thelma and Louise and some faded blue denim / Jumpin’ in them Wranglers, barely gettin’ in em / Buttons hangin’ on, thank god they ain’t givin’ / Flauntin’ what we got like we do it for a livin’ / Dressed to kill (Dressed to kill), to the nines (To the nines) / I got her back (She got my back), and she got mine.”

    The chorus includes the lyrics, “We’re thicker than our accents, thicker than our hair / Thicker than the Georgia and Louisiana air / Thicker than molasses from the patches to the seams / Stealin’ hearts is in our jeans / Us southern girls, we’re thick as thieves, we’re thick as thieves / We’re thick as thieves, we’re thick as thieves.”

  • Lainey and Jelly Roll - "Save Me" (2023)

    This collaboration came as a surprise when Lainey joined Jelly to sign it at the 58th ACM Awards in May. The song will be released as a single for these two label mates. Lainey said of Jelly in a recent interview, “I was an extra in a music video of his in, like, 2013. It was one that he did with Uncle Kracker. I was a drunk girl, passed out on the ground.” She said it was her first interaction with Jelly, and even then, she could tell he was a “good dude.”

  • Lainey and Cole Swindell - "Never Say Never" (2022)

    A powerful duet with Cole Swindell that topped Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. Cole said of the song when it came out, “I wrote ‘Never Say Never’ with Jessi Alexander and Chase McGill in 2018 about a relationship you just can’t stay away from; I have been a fan of Lainey Wilson’s for a while now and what she brings to this song is everything it needed.”

  • Lainey and HARDY - "Wait In The Truck" (2022)

    “Wait In The Truck” is one of country music’s best murder songs. She and HARDY show off some impressive acting chops in the dramatic video for the song that won Collaborative Music Video of the Year at the 2023 CMT Music Awards. “Wait In The Truck” also won ACM awards in 2023 for Visual Media of the Year (video) and Musical Event of the Year. When HARDY and Wilson won their ACM awards, HARDY said on the stage, “Man, thank you, Lainey. You absolutely killed it. There was never a doubt that you were always the one to make people believe this song.”
