“Got anything you’re looking forward to going to?” Jason asks.

“Not really,” Travis replies. “I might just say fuck it and just go somewhere nice, I don’t know. My skin’s getting real pale, so I gotta go somewhere sunny.”

“Somewhere south?” Jason asks.

“Closer to the equator,” Travis says.

“South of the equator?” Jason continues. At that, Travis just laughs.

“The latest status is I got to see her last week,” he coyly says. “That’s the latest status right there.”

Then, another reporter boldly asks Kelce if he’s already “in love” with Swift, to which the player smartly replies, “I’m going to keep my personal relationship personal.”

On his New Heights podcast with his brother, Kelce reacts to video in which a fan shows off his Halloween costume of Kelce and Swift, which pokes fun at the trending Swiftie topic that the singer put the football star “on the map” with their relationship.

Oh my fucking gosh. Oh my fucking goodness,” Kelce says in reaction to the video. “She put me on the map, right there in the video.”

“That’s so good, man,” he continues. “The commentary, goddamn, that was golden. Alright, hats off. That was well done. You get a round of applause for that one, I enjoyed that.”

The bond between Kelce’s mom, Donna, and Swift grows stronger with each game, the source added, saying: “They have a real special connection and Travis loves this.”

Kelce’s teammates also support Swift’s attendance: “Since Taylor has been coming to the games, the Chiefs have won the past four consecutive games and Travis is telling Taylor that she is his lucky charm. She literally brings light into the stadium with her. His teammates have joked that she is their unofficial mascot.”

The insider explains, “She has such a mᴀssive following that since he started seeing her, all the team’s social media accounts have exploded. … People are buying Chiefs tickets in the hopes of seeing Taylor, and she knows this.”

A source tells Entertainment Tonight, “Travis and Taylor are all in. The two are very into each other and are enjoying their time together but are also planning for the future. Taylor starts her international tour in November, and Travis is planning to be there to spend time with her.” The insider adds that both Swift and Kelce are “very serious about their careers, and the two bond over that and want to show support for each other whenever they can.”

October 18, 2023: Travis talks about being protective of Taylor.
On his New Heights podcast with brother Jason Kelce, the Chiefs star addresses the attention he got on a recent date with Swift, when he was seen escorting her to and from her car while seemingly asking her security to step aside. Kelce clarifies in the podcast episode that he simply put his hand on the security guard’s back to show respect and let him know he was there for Swift, too.

“Have you had to enact any security of your own? Do you feel like you’re a security guard when you are with Taylor?” his brother asks.

“I feel like whenever I’m on a date, I’m always having the sense that I’m a man in the situation. I’m protective, yeah, for sure. You always have to have that feeling or self-awareness, I guess,” Kelce says.

Of course, Swifties have been losing it over the clips of Kelce’s sweet PDA with Swift on the date, and commenting on how well he seems to treat her. “Baby girl isn’t used to a gentleman helping her out of the car,” one fan on X posts, along with a video of Kelce helping the singer out of the car.
