Tom Hanks Criticized Ryan Fitzpatrick at Taylor Swift Wedding
Former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick thought he was about to have a moment with Tom Hanks, but instead, the legendary actor Big-timed him at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding.
“Tom Hanks knows who I am and he’s approaching me to talk to me,” Fitzpatrick, 43, said he was thinking on the Thursday, August 20 episode of the “Fitz and Whit” podcast. “I make eye contact…Tom’s gotta know who I am. Makes eye contact, points at me… so I’m feeling really good, I’m like, ‘Holy crap, how cool is this? Tom Hanks knows who I am and he’s approaching me to talk to me.’”
It turns out, that was not the case.
“He looks at me and he says, ‘Just so you know that’s a huge faux pas,” Fitzpatrick admitted. “You’re not supposed to wear a top hat at a wedding. That’s saved for the groom.’ And then [he] just keeps walking.”
Tony Romo scored an invite to Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s wedding after making multiple viral comments about the newlyweds’ relationship. Romo, 46, and his CBS Sports broadcast partner, Jim Nantz, were in attendance at Swift and Kelce’s nuptials at Madison Square Garden on Friday, July 3, according to Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio.

Fitzpatrick continued, “It was like 50 percent that he was serious, 50 percent that it was a joke. I’m not sure which. But he has no idea who I am. I’m the guy that wore the top hat that was a huge faux pas at the wedding ‘cause it’s reserved for the groom.”
Fitzpatrick is a long-time friend of Kelce’s, having told Adam Schefter in 2022 that the pair met over a game of beer pong at a party. Despite his fashion error, the ex-quarterback has talked glowingly about his friend’s Madison Square Garden wedding, which took place on July 3.
“I may have cried,” he told at the ACC Golf Championship. “It was very emotional and also very fun and funny, too. It had all the feels.”
Fitzpatrick was also asked about the rumors that Kelce, 36, cried at the wedding.
Adam Sandler officiating Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s star-studded wedding felt a bit unbelievable to the lucky 1,000 in attendance. “Adam Sandler … came down [the aisle], everybody laughed and thought it was a joke at first,” American Century Investments CEO Jonathan Thomas said on the Thursday, July 17, episode of “The Compound” podcast. “He […]
“You know, it was kind of far away,” he said. “It might have been sweat that got in his eyes. I’m not sure. It was kind of far away, so I can’t tell you 100 percent.”
He added in an interview with People the week after the wedding that he was “floored” when he realized Adam Sandler would officiate the ceremony.
Afterward, FItzpatrick said he and his wife, Liza, tore it up on the dance floor.
“There was a lot of dancing, hours and hours, we’re still kind of recovering from being out on that dance floor for six-plus hours,” he said. “My favorite moment was just [when] I got to spend the night with my wife just on the dance floor, being around and being in it, so that was pretty magical for us.”
