It’s official: Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are dating. It all seemed to start in July when Travis Kelce, tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, hinted that he was interested in Taylor Swift after going to one of her concerts. A tradition at her concerts is for fans to make and trade friendship bracelets with each other. Keeping with the spirit, Travis made a bracelet with his number on it that he wanted to give to her, but was unable to. In September, there were reports that Travis and Taylor were spending time together. On September 24, Taylor was seen at the Chiefs’ game with Travis’ mother, Donna Kelce. The two have been seen going to parties and restaurants together. Two weeks later, Travis and Taylor made a surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live! and were seen being very happy together at the after party. Also, in an interview, Travis said that he was on top of the world after winning the Super Bowl, and now he is even more on top of the world.
An interesting effect of their relationship is the new crossover between Taylor Swift fans and NFL fans. Many Taylor Swift fans, called Swifties, are starting to become football fans as well. They are learning the rules of the game and are normalizing asking questions about football. Maybe some NFL fans will start listening to Taylor Swift too. Also, the couple is becoming a very popular Halloween costume this year.
In addition, Travis purchased a $6 million mansion in Kansas City and many people think that he did this so he and Taylor can have more privacy. Finally, Travis is planning to join Taylor on the international stops of her Eras tour. It will be exciting to see what is next for the new couple.
