Taylor Swift has been attending Travis Kelce's Kansas City Chiefs games quite frequently. On Sunday, October 1, the 33-year-old singer was seen with friends Sabrina Carpenter, Ryan Reynolds, and Blake Lively at Kelce's match against the New York Jets. Accompanying them were Hugh Jackman, director Shawn Levy, and Swift's brother Austin, as they occupied a suite at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. It is worth noting that this was Swift's first visit to the stadium since her three-night Eras Tour in May.

One week after supporting Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, Swift attended the Chiefs vs. Jets game. Sporting a red Chiefs windbreaker, she sat with Kelce's mother in his private suite and showed her excitement by jumping up and down when he scored a touchdown. After the game, Swift and Kelce were seen together for the first time as they left the stadium in a convertible. They reportedly later attended an after party at a local restaurant with Kelce's friends and family.

A source revealed that Taylor Swift and Kelce have been on several dates and Taylor is smitten with him. They were introduced by a mutual friend. The relationship is not serious at the moment and Taylor is enjoying herself. Although they are taking things slow, it is suggested that there is potential for their connection to grow stronger each day.

According to a second source, the two have been in contact for quite some time before Swift attended his game at Arrowhead Stadium. The insider revealed that he was thrilled she came to see him and everything went perfectly. Both of them are not in a rush to progress their relationship. "Taylor had an amazing time and connected well with his mom and friends too."
Kelce initially developed an interest in Swift after attending her Eras Tour concert in Kansas City. Unfortunately, he was unable to personally give her a friendship bracelet with his phone number, as Swift does not engage in conversations before or after her shows to preserve her voice for her extensive performance. Kelce expressed his disappointment about not being able to present the bracelet during his "New Heights" podcast in July.
Prior to Swift attending Kelce's game against the Bears, he had extended an invitation for her to witness him play. Reflecting on this invitation during an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show," Kelce highlighted that he had observed Swift's energetic performance at Arrowhead Stadium and suggested that she should experience his own electrifying stage presence as well. The outcome of this is yet to be seen in the coming days.
After witnessing Swift cheer for Kelce from the stands for the first time, Mahomes revealed that Kelce informed him of her expected attendance in a surprisingly composed manner. This caused the quarterback to doubt whether he could trust the tight end's words.
During a post-game press conference, Mahomes disclosed, "He told me at the very last moment. Trav has a way of casually mentioning things, leaving you uncertain of their veracity. On Friday, he simply stated, 'Oh yeah, I think she's gonna come to the game... this weekend,' and then carried on with his usual activities. That's just Travis."
