The Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and the pop star Taylor Swift have become arguably the most popular couple in the world ever since they went public with their relationship in September of last year. But how did it even happen?
Kelce is pulling back the curtain and opening up about the moment he started “to fall” for Swift.
Kelce Reveals When He Fell In Love With Swift
In September of 2023, Swift made her first appearance at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri to watch the Chiefs take on the Chicago Bears. While being interviewed on the Bussin’ With the Boys podcast, Kelce revealed that it was during this game that he really began to fall in love with Swift.
“The first game she came to against the Bears. I was like, ‘OK, I could probably set you up with everything.’ And she just walked right through the front door,” Travis shared on the podcast.
“There’s no going down talking to security, making sure she gets to her… She was just like, ‘I just want to be around the family and friends and experience this with everybody,'” he added. “She got beaucoup points for that. I was like, ‘Damn, she’s in the madness. She wants to support me and do things like that.’ She really won me over with that one.”
Kelce, 34, went on to talk about Swift, also 34, cheering his team on during their Super Bowl victory in February.
“She’s very self-aware… she understands situations like that. I think that’s why I started to really fall for her. How genuine she is around friends, family,” he said. “It can get crazy for somebody with that much attention. She just keeps it so chill and so cool.”
Kelce Talks Dealing With Attention Swift Gets
Some have speculated that it must be difficult for Kelce to deal with the attention that comes from dating arguably the most famous singer in the world. Kelce himself, however, isn’t having any of that. He wants the world to know that he is “proud” to be dating Swift.
“You want to keep things private, but at the same time, I’m not here to hide anything, you know? That’s my girl. That’s my lady,” he explained. “So, it’s like, I’m proud of that.”
“I’m not sitting here trying to juggle, ‘How am I going to keep this under wraps?'” he continued. “You just don’t want to let everybody into your personal life and be able to to comment knowing that everything she does is getting a headline.”
That being said, Kelce went on to indicate that the lack of privacy that comes with dating Swift isn’t always easy to handle.
“I’ve had fun with just about every aspect,” he said. “It’s just, when you’re at home, you want privacy. And you don’t always get that.”
