Travis Kelce is set to begin his 12th season with the Kansas City Chiefs, while his girlfriend, pop superstar Taylor Swift, continues her record-breaking Eras Tour.
The couple, who began dating last summer, have been publicly supportive of each other’s careers, with Swift attending numerous NFL games and Kelce cheering her on at her concerts.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s supportive relationship
Since their relationship began, Swift has attended 13 of Kelce’s NFL games, showing her support for the tight end. In return, Kelce has made appearances at several of Swift’s concerts. As the new NFL season kicks off, Swift is wrapping up the European leg of her tour and preparing for her final performances in the United States.
As Swift’s tour and the NFL season overlap, there is only one game Kelce is sure to play without Swift in attendance-the December 8 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers at Arrowhead Stadium. On that night, Swift is scheduled to perform her final show of the tour in Vancouver, Canada. Additionally, Swift may have to rush to make it to other games. For instance, the Chiefs play the Buffalo Bills on November 17, just one day after Swift’s concert at the Rogers Center in Toronto.
Another potential scheduling conflict arises on November 18, when the Chiefs face the Carolina Panthers, one day after Swift’s show in Toronto. Despite these tight schedules, Swift appears to have most of the season free to attend the majority of the Chiefs’ games. Kelce’s schedule also aligns well with Swift’s, with the Chiefs set to play the Cleveland Browns on December 15, just two days after Swift’s 35th birthday.
Football has been a significant aspect of Kelce and Swift‘s relationship. The couple made their relationship public at a Chiefs-Bears game last September, marking the moment as a “hard launch” of their romance.
In an interview with TIME Magazine, Swift reflected on the early days of their relationship, noting that they had time to get to know each other privately before their public debut. She clarified that their first public appearance wasn’t their first date, dispelling some misconceptions about the timing of their relationship.
