It comes after pop star Taylor Swift recently insisted speculation that the duo had got married in secret was wide of the mark.
Last week, it was claimed that Kelce would be debuting a 'slimmer look' this season, with an ESPN journalist saying the tight end had lost 25 pounds.
However, Kelce has now insisted that isn't the case - with the Chiefs star shutting down the rumours at a press conference.

He said: “First of all, I never said that. Don't believe all you read on the internet, guys, alright.”
Kelce then added: “I'm down some weight, yeah, from the end of the season last year.
"Each year is different man. You got to rebuild it. This year, got some time to really focus on some form running and some things early on in the offseason that I just didn't have time for last year.
"Certainly, feeling good and I think it will pay off."

Back in February, the Chiefs' season ended in disaster after they lost the Super Bowl in New Orleans to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Kelce was widely tipped to retire from the sport after that crushing setback but has since insisted he will play on.
Before that loss, there was talk that the 35-year-old would ask Swift to marry him.
Then, more recently, there were rumours that the duo had secretly got hitched. Swift, however, has since denied that's the case.
