Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Cozy NHL Date Night: A Love Story Unfolds
Let me break it down for you, since you might have missed the memo: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are totally into each other, and their latest outing is proof. The power couple, both 35, was spotted getting cozy during game four of the NHL Stanley Cup final on June 12, where the Edmonton Oilers faced off against the Florida Panthers. I suppose it’s worth noting that they’re not exactly newcomers to the sports scene, but still.
As they entered their suite ahead of the face-off, Travis – rocking a red sweater, matching shorts, and a white-and-red fitted hat – looked something up on his phone while Taylor hovered over his shoulder to see. The Grammy winner, donning a khaki-colored romper, cream lace-up heels, and her signature red lip, took a sip of her drink while she listened to the NFL star explain what they were watching on his device. It’s almost adorable, really.
Now, I know you might be wondering how they ended up together. Well, let me fill you in. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s love story began in July 2023, when the singer’s Eras Tour made a stop at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. As a huge Swiftie, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end caught the show with hopes of giving Taylor a friendship bracelet with his number on it. However, he failed to complete the pass due to her pre-show rituals. “I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Travis shared on the July 26 episode of his New Heights podcast. “So, I was a little butt-hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”
Fast forward to August 2023, and Travis was rocking a mustache – which he debuted in August during training camp – when he was first introduced to Taylor. As he later noted of the era, “That ‘stache and the 87 jersey was pretty iconic.” The two eventually got together, and it’s been a whirlwind romance ever since.
Their relationship has been making headlines, and for good reason. During a January 15 appearance on the Stephen A. Smith Show, Travis gushed about Taylor’s support, saying, “Having that confidence and comfort off the field and all the support I could ever ask for in the stadium… That’s the beauty of being in a very strong relationship is that you get that support to be able to come in and focus on your craft. Focus on being the best version of you.”
Glad I could fill you in on the details of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship – I hope that wasn’t too complicated.
