Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are one of the most powerful couples in sports and entertainment, with the global music superstar and the iconic NFL player enjoying success in the last years.
Media outlets have been paying close attention to their every move, as the rumours of their possible engagement circulate on a regular basis.
Many fans thought Kelce would call it quits on his very impressive career with the Kansas City Chiefs, especially after his team got blown out by the Philadelphia Eagles 40-22. The former Cincinnati Bearcat generated four catches on six targets for 39 yards, a forgettable performance.
Taylor Swift roots for a football player that’s not Travis Kelce
Taylor Swift is one of Kelce‘s biggest fans, with the multi-platinum singer being a regular at the Chiefs home games at Arrowhead Stadium, and of course, at playoff games and Super Bowls. There’s no doubt she’s one of her boyfriend’s biggest supporters.
That was a different story 16 years ago, when Swift was rooting for another football player that was not Travis Kelce…. it was part of a music video, though, specifically “You Belong With Me“, the third single from Swift’s second studio album, Fearless (2008).
The music video of the song portrays Taylor as both the protagonist and antagonist, a “nerd, who is pining away for this guy that she can’t have” and “the popular girl.” Her love interest is portrayed by American actor Lucas Till, who happens to be a high school football player.
In regards to his acting on the video, Swift said about Till, “He’s absolutely perfect for the part and really fun to be around, too.”According to her, the video’s plot is “charming”; she also said that, “the whole video, I’m just sitting there pining away, wishing I could be in her position.”
Swift and Kelce’s relationship reaches new heights
While the world hasn’t seen much of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce in recent weeks, sources close to the couple say their love story is only getting stronger. According to a new report from People, the pop icon and the NFL star have been “traveling nonstop” and soaking up as much time together as possible before their hectic schedules pull them in different directions again.
With Kelce gearing up for another intense NFL season and Swift’s fans anxiously awaiting her next album cycle, the couple has been focused on making the most of this rare moment of calm. “They know this time is special and won’t last forever,” the insider shared.
Despite their celebrity status, Swift and Kelce have been prioritizing their relationship quietly and intentionally. “They’re very serious and in sync,” the source added, emphasizing how aligned they are when it comes to values and goals. For now, the focus is not on stadium lights or red carpets, it’s on real connection and downtime, something both have worked hard to protect.
