Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been the talk of tinseltown since going public with their romance last month. Sources say the pop icon and football star are head over heels, leading fans to wonder – could this really be the one for Swift?
A Budding Romance Takes Off
As first reported by Parade, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift were spotted kissing and cuddling at a Chiefs game in December 2023. Since then, the pair have become social media official, with Kelce gushing that he “can’t stop smiling” whenever he’s with Swift.
Fans immediately began speculating about how the couple met, with many pointing to lyrics from Swift’s recent album Midnights that seems to reference the Chiefs tight end:
“I’m the one he comes to when he can’t sleep at night”
Kelce then revealed that a mutual friend set them up, saying “It was definitely somebody playing Cupid behind the scenes a little bit.”
Since taking their romance public, Kelce and Swift have packed on the PDA, wearing matching friendship bracelets and sharing sweet kisses at Chiefs’ games and on New Year’s Eve.
Were the Signs There All Along?
In a recently resurfaced 2009 Glamour interview, a 19-year-old Swift eerily describes her ideal man in a way that matches Kelce to a tee:
“I like when the guy wears a nice button-up shirt, nice jeans, nice shoes. When the guy takes care of himself, that totally rocks my world!”
At the time, Kelce was a 19-year-old college tight end just starting to make a name for himself at the University of Cincinnati.
Given Swift’s knack for hiding Easter eggs in her music about her love life, many fans believe she hinted at dating Kelce long before going public. Lyrics from her recent album like “Planning my future around you” and “You’re my end game” have set off a flurry of speculation that Swift has finally found her match.
| Taylor’s Ideal Man (2009) | Travis Kelce |
|---|---|
| Nice button-up shirt | Known for snazzy game day fits |
| Nice jeans | Casually rocks jeans |
| Takes care of himself | Pro athlete in peak shape |
“It really seems like she manifested him years ago!” one fan gushed on Twitter.
Others have compared them to iconic Hollywood couples like Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe. But unlike the tumultuous Monroe romance, sources say Travis and Taylor’s relationship is the real deal.
The Future Looks Bright
Travis and Taylor rang in 2024 with sweet kisses at a NYE party in Miami. An insider said “They only had eyes for each other all night. They are clearly crazy about one another.”
With wedding bells already ringing for Swift’s close friends like Katy Perry and Russell Wilson, fans believe Kelce could be the one to finally get Swift to settle down.
As for 2023, the stars already have big plans – Swift will be performing at the Super Bowl halftime show on February 12th, where Kelce and the Chiefs have a strong shot at making it to the big game.
“I’ll be there cheering him on no matter what,” Swift told reporters. “This is the happiest I’ve ever been.”
While a Swift-Kelce Super Bowl pairing seemed unlikely just weeks ago, the universe does seem to have a way of giving Taylor what she wants. As the songstress continues her stadium tour this summer, we wouldn’t be surprised if a certain football star is spotted in the crowd.
This hot new romance shows no signs of cooling down anytime soon. Could wedding bells be in their future? Only time will tell, but we’ll be watching with hearts in our eyes.
