Travis Kelce/Instagram Andrews and Thompson kept their trip with the superstar couple under wraps before Kelce posted the photo, which Thompson said was because they wanted to respect their privacy. "Their lives are so public, so it was very important for Erin and I not to say anything, not because we don't like to share stuff with you, but it's important for us to let them dictate the narrative on things they do in their personal life," Thompson explained. "She's a dream and I adore her and I'm so happy that they make each other happy," she concluded. Andrews added that she and Thompson are both "protective of" Kelce and Swift. "We're so protective of them and their privacy and what they deserve, so that's why we never said anything or planned on saying anything."
