Taylor Swift is said to be dating Travis Kelce, with Olivia Wilde unimpressed

Olivia Wilde has seemingly thrown some major shade at Taylor Swift's new romance with Travis Kelce, with the Don't Worry Darling director even suggesting a new boyfriend for the hitmaker.

Taking to Instagram on Thursday, October 5, Olivia shared a tweet that read: "I wish Taylor Swift was in love with a climate scientist," which appeared to make a veiled dig at the way in which NFL has seen a huge boom since Taylor was rumoured to be dating the Kansas City Chiefs' tight end, with his jersey sales even seeing a spike.

Although the actress and director, 39, didn't write anything else to accompany the post, the person who first tweeted the message added more on their page. The original page said: "Taylor would join her scientist at an end fossil fuels rally and the world would be saved."

Commenting under the original tweet, posted by Katja Herbers, social media users were quick to weigh in. One person penned: "I hope you were this crazy about actual climate change which is majorly affected by large corporations rather than fixating your whole attention on a popstar."

"If you understand the amount of power she has, why not have a conversation with Taylor and come up with some plans. After all, women should support women. These keyboard warrior tactics are old and lame," penned a second.

A third then added: "I wish people would stop expecting Taylor Swift to be able to change the world this is such a weirdo thing to say." While a fourth echoed: "I wish losers on Twitter would stop trying to make Taylor Swift responsible for a cause they deem important. I also wish these losers would get out of her dating life."

But some people were seemingly in agreement with Katja. One person said: "Tweet of the year." While another added: "Taylor has a real chance to save the world here."

Meanwhile someone else said: "Hot take: I think Taylor is dating a Jets player so that when you google her name and 'Jet', it comes up with articles about her love life instead of her excessive use of private jets," despite Taylor dating a Chiefs player, no a Jets player.
