It’s why the All-Pro isn’t worried about speaking out about his relationship either.

Travis Kelce Shares Details of Taylor Swift’s First NFL Game
Speaking on the “Bussin’ With The Boys” podcast with former Pro Bowl offensive lineman Taylor Lewan and NFL linebacker Will Compton, Kelce spoke glowingly about Swift and his budding relationship that has been the talk of both the sports and entertainment world.
While many eligible bachelors may be put off by the publicity the 34-year-old pop singer brings, Kelce has never been too shy of the spotlight.
“It’s like, you want to keep things private, but at the same time like I’m not here to like hide anything. … That’s my girl, that’s my lady, I’m proud of that,” Kelce said.
What makes Kelce so smitten with his love interest? The fact that, like him, Swift has been in the public limelight for decades now and has yet to change the way she is.
“I think that’s why I really started to really fall for her, was how genuine she is around friends [and] family. It can get crazy for somebody with that much attention, and she just keeps it so chill and so cool, and I can admire it for sure,” Kelce explained.
While on her “The Eras Tour,” Kelce has been in attendance for many shows over the last year — most recently in London. As the tour has continued, the Kelce-Swift relationship appears as strong as ever.
Kelce Reveals Favorite Swift Songs
Among the many things Lewan spoke with Kelce about was putting the 34-year-old tight end on the spot regarding some of his favorite songs sung by his girlfriend.
At the top of the list, Kelce said was “Blank Space” because “that was the first one” he loved listening to.

“Cruel Summer” was listed as his second favorite with “So High School” coming in third due to the “sentimental feeling” behind it.
Kelce also acknowledged that he knew of Swift as they are both the same age and heard of the singer while he was in high school but also says that Swift’s album “1989” was the stepping stone to him listening to her more.
Kelce-Swift Relationship Timeline
It may not be exactly similar to her famous song “You Belong With Me,” but the relationship between Kelce and Swift does share some striking similarities.
To start, it appears the relationship first began when the Chiefs’ tight end announced on his “New Heights” podcast that he tried to give the pop singer a friendship bracelet with his number on it. While Kelce says he failed, over a month later Swift was seen in the stands of many Chiefs games, including one on Sunday Night Football at MetLife Stadium for a contest against the New York Jets.
The two have seemingly been linked together ever since with adorable moments, including Swift running up to Kelce following a performance during “The Eras Tour” and the two celebrating the Chiefs’ Super Bowl 58 victory over the San Francisco 49ers.
Whatever the case, the two lovebirds have seemingly worked past the difficulties of each other’s crazy schedules to be together.
