Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce and pop superstar Taylor Swift first sparked romance during her Eras Tour stop at Arrowhead Stadium, and the couple hasn’t slowed down since. Swift recently shared a glimpse of their dynamic on tour, teasing what she calls “the most fun thing” about having Kelce out on tour.
How Did Taylor Swift Describe Life on Tour With Travis Kelce?
Kelce and Swift’s romance, at least from the tight end’s side, began at her concert at Arrowhead Stadium in July 2023. Kelce had tried to give her his number, but didn’t succeed until the Grammy-winning singer made an appearance at a Chiefs game in September.
The couple eventually confirmed their relationship in the following months. Kelce made his first appearance as Swift’s boyfriend at her Eras Tour stop at Accor Stadium, joining her in a VIP suite.
Since then, the three-time Super Bowl champion has often been spotted at her shows during the offseason. Speaking on “Late Night With Seth Meyers”, Swift shared what she finds most fun about having him on tour:
“The most fun thing about having Travis out on tour is, like, he would go to the tents and, like, give me the tea afterward,” Swift said. “We’d do the debrief afterward in the car.”
Swift also shared a hilarious behind-the-scenes moment that perfectly captures Kelce’s playful side. During a London stop on her Eras Tour, Kelce accidentally mistook Hugh Grant’s wife, Anna Eberstein, for “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig while trying to compliment her on the film.
Swift, who learned about the mix-up when Kelce debriefed her about his night in the VIP section, couldn’t stop laughing, teasing that he had unknowingly handed out praise to the wrong celebrity.
Despite the occasional awkward moment, the couple’s chemistry is undeniable. Kelce and Swift recently got engaged, announcing it through a heartfelt Instagram post featuring photos from Kelce’s surprise proposal at his Kansas City home. In the caption, Swift playfully wrote, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
The photos show the couple in a romantic, garden-style setting adorned with flowers and an archway where Kelce popped the question. There’s also a close-up of the engagement ring and Swift’s immediate, emotional reaction.
Swift rated Kelce’s surprise proposal a perfect 10 out of 10, noting that he completely managed to surprise her. The couple appears to have already started planning their wedding, though no date has been set, and Swift has declined to confirm whether it will take place in 2026.
