A Catholic priest went viral for his sermon about \u201cThe Fate of Ophelia<\/a>,\u201d a song Taylor Swift wrote for her fianc\u00e9, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce.<\/p>\n

Rev. Eric Mah pointed to the ballad as a lesson on feeling rejected, finding love, and having God by your side.<\/p>\n

He posted his homily \u2014 which he preached at his parish, St. James in Colgan, Ontario \u2014 on his TikTok and Instagram handle\u00a0Catholic Latte<\/a>, and racked up 4.4 million views.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s definitely been my most-viewed homily,\u201d Mah, 48, told The Post.<\/p>\n

Mah explained how Swift used Ophelia, the tragic Shakespearean character who likely drowned herself as a result of being rejected by Hamlet, \u201cas an analogy for her past dating life before she met her current fianc\u00e9, Travis Kelce.\u201d<\/p>\n
