Travis Kelce revealed when his and Taylor Swift’s love story began!
According to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, the two had already been dating for weeks before she attended his game against the Chicago Bears on September 24, 2023.
“We had known each other for almost a month until that moment,” said Kelce (34) during a visit to The Pat McAfee Show Wednesday.
Three days before Swift attended the Chiefs-Bears game, Kelce told The Pat McAfee Show that he “threw the ball in her court” and invited her to see him play. He revealed on Wednesday that he already knew she was going to see him play when he said so on the show.
“It wasn’t just out of the blue, ‘Hey, come to the game,'” Kelce said. Since that first appearance, Swift, 34, has attended 12 of Kelce’s games.
“I love when Taylor comes out and supports me and enjoys the game with family and friends. It’s just been a great year, man,” he told McAfee.
Although the attention their relationship has brought him is “brand new,” he said it’s something he’s having fun with.
“You know, it’s been a crazy, crazy ride that I couldn’t have predicted,” he continued. “But I’m having fun with it. Most of the world is having fun with it, except for all the grumpy NFL fans who just don’t want to see the Chiefs win.”

Rumors of a romance between the two began after the jock attended the singer’s Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium and tried to give her his number.
“If you go to Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets, and I got a bunch of them there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it,” he recalled to his brother Jason at their New heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast in July.
Kelce said he was “a little sad” that he didn’t get a chance to give her a personalized bracelet because she was busy preparing for the show.
“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her performances because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs she sings,” he told his older brother.
Her work ethic is something he values and that they have in common, he revealed during an interview with WSJ. Magazine December/January issue. His own work ethic is why he won’t be at the Grammys on Sunday. he told McAfee.
“I wish I could go support Taylor at the Grammys and watch her win every award she’s nominated for, but I think I got practice on Sunday,” Kelce said.
