The Surprising Connection between Travis Kelce's Sister-In-Law Kylie Kelce and Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce may have expressed his desire for the NFL to reduce the Taylor Swift talk, but his family isn't shying away from joining in. His sister-in-law, Kylie Kelce, subtly joined the conversation in the comments section of a TikTok video that was posted on Tuesday, October 3. The video featured a fan attempting to connect an invisible string to the 33-year-old Swift. The caption read, "POV: I am delusional."

In the video, the content creator discusses Swift's inner circle, beginning with her developing relationship with Travis, 33, and her close friendship with Selena Gomez. The next individuals mentioned are Kylie, 31, and her husband, Jason Kelce.

The video further explains, "Jason Kelce, who is Travis Kelce's brother, is married to Kylie Kelce. Both Selena Gomez and Kylie Kelce follow me on TikTok. Therefore, Taylor Swift and I are best friends."

Swifties and Kylie both proudly supported the theory, with Kylie commenting, "Mathematically speaking...this math." Kylie and Jason, who are both 35, got married in 2018 and have three daughters: Wyatt, who is 4, Elliotte, who is 2, and Bennett, who is 7 months old. (Kylie was 38 weeks pregnant with their third child when Jason and Travis competed against each other in this year's Super Bowl.)

Sports fans have developed a fondness for both Jason and his brother throughout the years. However, Kylie has also become a prominent figure in NFL culture. Recently, she candidly discussed the realities of being married to a professional football player. In a joint interview with Jason on Today, she acknowledged that there are women who are in relationships with NFL or other professional sports players who derive satisfaction from living luxuriously. This, however, is not consistent with Kylie's upbringing or personal preferences. Therefore, she emphasizes the importance of remaining true to herself and maintaining authenticity.

Kylie and her brother-in-law share a strong bond, but she has yet to directly address his connection with Swift. This comes after Swift was seen supporting Travis at multiple Kansas City Chiefs games. On the other hand, Jason has not hesitated to express his opinions. During their "New Heights" podcast episode on Wednesday, October 4th, Jason and Travis discussed whether the NFL is overly focused on Swift in the stadiums, with Jason believing that the NFL is not accustomed to celebrities attending games. He shared that basketball has a better approach, where celebrities are seen courtside and shown briefly before the game returns to focus.

Travis acknowledged that the overwhelming attention has been slightly excessive, but speculated that the league is simply aiming to inject some fun into the broadcasts.

On the other hand, the NFL released a statement on Wednesday defending its coverage, stating, "The news regarding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce has become a significant pop cultural event that we have actively embraced in real-time. It represents the convergence of sports and entertainment, and we have received an overwhelmingly positive response within the sports community."

Taylor Swift has become an integral part of Travis' close-knit group, as their relationship blossoms. She has even formed a bond with Travis' mother, attending two Chiefs games together this season.

According to an exclusive source in the latest issue of We, Taylor is no longer holding back in her life. If something feels right, like her connection with Travis, she is diving in wholeheartedly. She is currently in a state of immense happiness and thoroughly enjoying her life.
