Apparently, Kelly's comments were being spun as bashing Travis and Taylor, so she set the record straight on her Instagram:

"Just a quick public service announcement, everybody, since this seems to be breaking news…" Kelly started.

"Do not fall prey to clickbait, trash reporters twisting the facts again. I did not bash anyone's romance," Kelly continued. "I am pro romance. Yay, romance. Did y'all even watch what I actually said on my show?"
