Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's romance is all over the news nowadays. But did you know how it all started? Well, it began with a failed attempt at first. Read on to know about their 'Love Story'.
Who would have thought that the global pop sensation, Taylor Swift and the NFL player, Travis Kelce’s rumoured romance would be making the biggest headlines in contemporary times? No one in their wildest dreams imagined that this was even possible, and it’s safe to say that neither of the two could have thought they would end up being one of the most-shipped couples in the world.
Why are we saying so? Because, during one of Swift’s Eras Tour concerts in July 2023, the NFL star expressed interest in the singer, but his plan didn't work out. In an episode of the podcast, New Heights, Kelce, who co-hosts the show with his brother, Jason, revealed that he attended a Taylor Swift concert and wrote his number on a friendship bracelet which he intended to give to her. However, he was unable to deliver it to her.

However, destiny had other plans in store for the duo. In September 2023, reports started making rounds in the media that Taylor and Travis had been spending time together in secrecy out of the blue. Later, sources told Entertainment Tonight that the two were in the ‘talking’ phase of their relationship, keeping it casual due to their busy schedules.
Travis Kelce commented on the rumours of him dating Taylor Swift during his appearance on The Pat McAfee Show. He found it amusing how much attention their rumoured affair had received but clarified that it's all just gossip and nobody knows the truth. Kelce compared it to the game of telephone where the message gets distorted as it gets passed from one person to another. Although he mentioned:
“I threw the ball in her court, and y’know, I told her, ‘I’ve seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead. You might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead and see which one’s a little more lit.’ So we’ll see what happens in the near future.”
After this statement by Travis Kelce, the 33-year-old singer, Taylor Swift was spotted sitting in a VIP box at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, on September 24, 2023. This move sent her friends and the media into a frenzy. People couldn’t keep their calm over the fact that those rumours of a brewing romance between the two, could actually be true. Escalating things by another notch, Swift and Kelce were seen walking out together after the game.

As the rumours began to settle down, Taylor Swift decided to make another public appearance. She was seen on October 1, 2023, at MetLife Stadium to support the NFL player, Travis Kelce during his game against the New York Jets. For the occasion, she was accompanied by her close friends, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner, and even Hugh Jackman. A source said to People:
“Swift and Kelce are still just getting to know each other and that it’s nothing too serious.”
Withholding the meaning of the phrase ‘third time’s the charm’, Taylor Swift attended yet another one of the football star's home games, this time against the team, Denver Broncos on October 12, 2023. Swift was seen wearing a red Chiefs jersey over a black top and grey skirt and spent time with Kelce's parents. Donna Kelce, Travis’ mom, was even spotted wearing a beaded friendship bracelet inspired by Taylor Swift.
After weeks of speculation, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce share their first PDA moment while heading for a Saturday Night Live afterparty on October 14, 2023. The couple was spotted showing affection to each other at a lavish party in New York City. According to sources, the two stars were seen kissing and being intimate throughout the night. Travis had his arms wrapped around Taylor's waist until they eventually departed the party at around 4 a.m. An insider disclosed to Page Six:
“Travis and Taylor seemed to really be enjoying the night, and each other, even kissing throughout the night.”
