Teresa, 51, revealed that her husband, Luis Ruelas, 49, encouraged her to ask the pop star for a photo when Taylor, 34, and Travis Kelce, 34, ended up next to them in the VIP area.
“All of a sudden, Taylor and her boyfriend started walking by… they walk past us, they get right next to us, and my husband says, ‘Honey, that’s Taylor Swift,’” the reality star recalled.
She then said she was hesitant to ask for a photo because she didn’t want to “upset” the multi-Grammy award winner.
Teresa said she thought of her co-star, Jennifer Aydin, 47, a huge fan of Taylor – or as they were nicknamed, Swifty – which gave her the final push to get closer to the superstar.
