A longtime TV personality came painfully close to attending one of Hollywood’s most exclusive celebrations before a scheduling conflict derailed his plans.<\/p>\n

Ryan Seacrest revealed he reluctantly skipped Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding after a scheduling conflict left him with “no choice.”<\/p>\n

“I RSVP\u2019d to go, and then Disney hired me to do the Fourth of July 250 special on the 3rd and the 4th,” the radio host confessed Monday during his show, “On Air With Ryan Seacrest.” “So I had to cancel.”<\/p>\n

His co-hosts, Sisanie and Tanya Rad, were shocked to hear about Seacrest’s invite after the 51-year-old kept it a secret. Sisanie even joked it was a “waste of an invite.”<\/p>\n

Seacrest defended himself, saying, “I was actually really excited. I was kind of torn.”<\/p>\n

“I’m like how \u2013 I tried to do both … I tried to go to the wedding and prepare for that show, but we started live on the third so I couldn’t.”<\/p>\n

The “American Idol” host said he even mapped out the logistics before throwing in the towel.<\/p>\n

“Trust me, Tanya. I went through the minutes,” Seacrest explained. “I couldn’t have done both. And the actual wedding was in the afternoon. I went through the minutes.”<\/p>\n

Although he couldn’t make it, Seacrest recalled one conversation with the bride that made canceling even harder.<\/p>\n

“But I was so honored and thrilled to be invited,” he said. “And you know the irony was, after I RSVP’d to the wedding, I saw them at dinner at a restaurant, and we talked about the ‘event’ \u2013 because we didn’t say it out loud \u2013 the ‘event’ and she said ‘Oh, It’s going to be so much fun. We’re going to have the best time. It’s going to go late.’ I’m like, ‘I cannot wait. I’m so excited.'”<\/p>\n

Looking back, Seacrest said he was all in from the beginning.<\/p>\n

“I RSVP’d yes. I saw them a couple of weeks later to confirm,” he clarified. “Then I had to cancel. But I had no choice.”<\/p>\n

She revealed in an interview with Time magazine that they actually began dating long before she appeared in the stands.<\/p>\n

“This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell,” she said. “We started hanging out right after that. So, we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I\u2019m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other.”<\/p>\n

“By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple.”<\/p>\n
