Taylor Swift and Donna Kelce are teaming up again to cheer on Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs as the team takes on the Buffalo Bills Sunday. Swift, 34, and Kelce, also 34, announced their relationship in 2023 before the start of this NFL season, and since then the “Love Story” singer has regularly come to watch him play, sitting alongside his mother Donna, father Ed Kelce and family members and friends of other players.
At Highmark Stadium on January 21st, Donna’s other son, Jason Kelce, and his wife, Kylie Kelce, showed up to support Travis, now that Jason’s Philadelphia Eagles have been eliminated from the playoffs on January 15th.

Donna, who was named one of PEOPLE’s 25 Most Intriguing People of the Year in December, said it was surreal to meet Swift.
“It was a ride. That’s for sure,” said Donna (71) in November. “Sometimes I feel like I’m on another planet. I ask myself: ‘What has my life turned into?’ ”

Timeline of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship
Last week, Swift and Donna braved sub-zero temperatures to watch Kelce help Kansas City lead the way against the Miami Dolphins with seven catches for 71 yards.
Kelce led the Chiefs receiving corps throughout the regular season with 984 yards and 93 catches. But it wasn’t Kelce’s performance on the court that had fans talking this season, as his budding romance with Swift became the talk of the league.

Kelce admitted that he had “never dated anyone with that aura” during an interview with WSJ magazine.
“But at the same time, I’m not running away from anything,” he told the newspaper. “The scrutiny she gets, how many magnifying glasses she has on her, every day, the paparazzi in front of her house, in front of every restaurant she goes to, after every flight she gets off, and she’s just living, enjoying life.”
The Chiefs tight end and his NFL brother, Jason Kelce, were on the cover of this week’s PEOPLE magazine, and a source told the magazine that Kelce and Swift are “really happy and having a lot of fun together, but they’re still seeing where it goes going.”
