Taylor Swift, renowned as the top pop icon globally, encountered an unexpected delay on Tuesday evening as she waited for her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, a star in the NFL, who was late for their exclusive flight.
The duo was seen getting ready to board an extravagant Gulfstream jet to the East Coast. However, the departure did not unfold smoothly. Swift and her father, Scott, boarded the aircraft at 6:05 pm, but Kelce arrived nearly an hour later in his Hummer at 7:00 pm.
Once he arrived, Kelce experienced further setbacks as he struggled to get the large vehicle onto the runway due to a locked gate. Fortunately, a member of Swift‘s security team came to help, and the rushed NFL player boarded the luxurious $61 million aircraft. They finally took off just as Kelce’s brother, Jason, was arriving at the Kansas City airport for a flight back to Philadelphia.
Did the flight eventually take off?
Prior to their flight, Swift and Kelce had a full day together at Kelce’s home in Kansas City, celebrating the Chiefs‘ Week 5 win. During this time, they were seen sharing sweet moments, including a kiss after the game, which thrilled fans.
Swift’s absence from Kelce’s birthday festivities the previous Saturday raised some eyebrows. He hosted a “car festival” to mark his 35th birthday, attended by his family and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes with his wife Brittany. Despite missing this celebration, there was great excitement surrounding Swift‘s expected arrival for the Sunday game, particularly after Kelce insinuated she would come to join him soon.
Earlier in the week, there were rumors hinting at Swift planning a pre-birthday event at a popular barbecue restaurant. Yet, her movements have been kept quite secretive, especially after enhanced security protocols were put in place following an incident at her concert in Vienna in August.
While some have speculated that the couple’s relationship is merely a publicity stunt, even suggesting a “leaked” breakup plan, Swift and Kelce have shown their affection publicly. Their recent shared moments at the US Open, marked by playful interactions, continue to dispel these rumors as they navigate their relationship both in public and private settings.
