Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are one of the most popular people dating this year. It became big news on September 24th, when Taylor Swift was in the Chief Player’s box. It was at the Bears vs. Chiefs game. After that, they were seen leaving the game holding hands and entering Travis’ car. After that game, it was official that they were dating. Later, the public found out that they had been dating since early July. 

On Jason and Travis Kelce’s podcast, Travis revealed that during Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium, he wanted to give Taylor Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it. He also shared that he told her, "I’ve seen you rock the stage at Arrowhead, why don’t you see me do the same?" Taylor Swift attended many games after that and the commenters made many jokes about their relationship. Travis Kelce even played better when she was at the games. When the Chiefs had a week off, Travis went to Argentina with Taylor to see her Era’s Tour. He sat next to her dad and sang along to the songs he knew. 

 

One question remains, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce: yes or no? 

​

Yes

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are a great couple who have shown they really care about each other. They both have shown they care about each other's careers and they have been seen having lots of fun at after parties. They’re both friendly with each other's parents, having fun with them at football games and at tours. 

When Travis publicly declared his interest in Taylor Swift on his and his brother’s podcast, she was surprised that he was so brave. To millions of listeners, he announced that he liked Taylor Swift and, before that, they had no clue that he was the slightest bit interested in her. Taylor and Travis have been spotted having fun on many dates in both New York City and Kansas City. Throughout the games, Taylor has established a secret handshake with Brittney Mahomes (the wife of Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes) whenever the Chiefs score. She highly enjoys watching Travis play football and gets immensely worried if he falls or gets tackled. 

Taylor and Travis both support each other’s careers because they both go to each other’s football games or concerts. Taylor showed she cared about him when, during her tour, she changed the lyrics to her song 'Karma' so it would make a reference to Travis Kelce. Taylor and Travis also celebrated Travis’ birthday together by going out to dinner.

 

No

Many football fans and Swifties may argue that this relationship is distracting to both of their careers. In recent months, many football fans have argued that the TV coverage of Taylor Swift at the Chiefs games is taking away from the football coverage. Fans have also argued that Taylor Swift is distracting Travis Kelce and his game play has not been as good since they started dating. Taylor has also had to travel quite a distance to be present at Travis’s games, which takes away from her time to rest for her performances. 

Additionally, their differing interests and backgrounds might also contribute to conflicts in the future. Both excel in their field and are very popular in the industry. This could eventually lead to a strain in their relationship and bring lots of negative media attention.  These disparities could lead to misunderstandings and disagreements, making it challenging for them to find common ground and maintain a strong connection.
