The 14-time Grammy winner, Taylor Swift, is going to be present at the Kansas City Chiefs’ season-opening game against the Baltimore Ravens in Kansas City.
Reports from The Athletic confirm that Swift will be cheering on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, on Thursday night as the NFL kicks off.
Swift was a regular attendee at Kelce’s games last season, including the entire playoff journey that culminated in the Chiefs’ Super Bowl triumph.
The couple marked Kansas City’s 25-22 overtime victory against the San Francisco 49ers in the championship game by sharing a kiss on the field at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Swift’s Debut at Chiefs Game Sparks Online Excitement
Taylor Swift made waves in September 2023 when she made her first appearance at a Chiefs game, watching from a suite at Arrowhead Stadium alongside Kelce’s mother, Donna Kelce, as the team triumphed over Chicago in Week 3 with a score of 41-10. Her presence at the game generated a buzz on social media.
During the season, Swift forged a friendship with Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. They even came up with a playful game-day handshake and were spotted sporting matching jackets during the playoffs.
Kelce initially expressed interest in Swift in July 2023, disclosing on his “New Heights” podcast that he tried to give her a friendship bracelet with his number during her Eras Tour performance in Kansas City. Although unsuccessful then, their bond grew over time.
The couple officially started dating in September 2023. Reflecting on their relationship, Swift mentioned in her TIME Person of the Year feature that they had been spending time together before her first game attendance, allowing them to privately get to know each other.
As Kelce embarks on his 12th NFL season with the Chiefs eyeing a historic Super Bowl three-peat, Swift by his side ensures they remain a prominent fixture in NFL news and pop culture.
