Taylor Swift subtly supported boyfriend Travis Kelce breaking a major Kansas City Chiefs touchdown record.
The pop star, 35, dropped a “like” on a Chiefs Instagram post celebrating Kelce, also 35, earning the most receiving touchdowns in KC history.
Kelce and the Chiefs played the Pittsburgh Steelers on Wednesday, December 25, in which the tight end earned his third touchdown of the NFL season. His overall record now surpasses Tony Gonzalez.
“It’s everything to me. Tony’s been a mentor to me, he’s been there right there for me [with] any questions I’ve ever had,” Kelce said in a postgame interview. “I feel like I’m still trying to fill that guy’s shoes. He’s such an unbelievable competitor and I’ve got so much love for him. It’s an honor to be in conversations with him.”
Taylor Swift has loved being the girl in the bleachers amid her blossoming romance with Travis Kelce. Swift made her first appearance at a Kansas City Chiefs game in September 2023, watching them defeat the Chicago Bears from the Kelce family’s private suite. After cheering alongside the tight end’s mom, Donna Kelce, she and Travis […]
Swift, however, was not present at Pennsylvania’s Acrisure Stadium to watch Kelce and the Chiefs win 29-10.
Last year, Taylor brought her parents, Scott and Andrea Swift, and her brother, Austin Swift, with her to Kansas City, Missouri, for Christmas. At the time, the family attended Kelce’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders at Arrowhead Stadium.
Despite a disappointing Christmas Day loss for the Chiefs in 2023, Kelce offered some insight into how he celebrated with Taylor and her family, crediting Austin, 32, with reviving the holiday cheer by dressing up in a Santa suit and handing out personal gifts.
“It was a full commit. He killed it,” Travis recalled on his and brother Jason Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast in December 2023. “He actually made me feel like a child because his gift to me was straight out of the bag.”
He added, “[He] handed me a VHS of my favorite football movie of all time … Little Giants.”
Despite the negativity from the game, Travis expressed gratitude for his loved ones who helped to salvage the holiday.
“It ended well with good Christmas cheer and great people,” he said. “That’s always going to save Christmas no matter if you lose to the Raiders or not.”
Earlier this month, Us Weekly exclusively revealed that Taylor planned to host Christmas with her and Travis’ families this year.
The holiday comes just weeks after Taylor concluded her Eras Tour in Vancouver on December 8. The 149-date tour ran from March 2023 to December 2024, spanned five continents, raked in more than $2 billion and was attended by 10.1 million fans. Now, she is ready to enjoy some much-needed rest.
“Taylor’s exhausted,” a source exclusively told Us earlier this month. “She’s excited for some relaxation and downtime.”
If Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are indeed endgame, she’s seemingly already won over her in-laws. The Grammy winner and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end began dating during summer 2023. That September, Swift started attending Chiefs games, sitting with the athlete’s mother, Donna Kelce, for the first time on October 1, 2024. That same […]
Taylor’s time off will of course include Travis after contending with their busy schedules since the beginning of their relationship in the summer of 2023.
“Taylor plans to stay in and hibernate [with Travis] for a while,” the insider shared. “They want to do ‘normal things’ as a couple.”
As the pair consider the next step in their relationship, the source said their two families are “very intertwined,” adding that it feels “as if they’ve been a part of each other’s [lives] for years.”
