LOVESTORY: Travis Kelce teases what holidays with Taylor Swift might look like due to Christmas Day football game
Travis Kelce is in for a fun Christmas weekend, regardless of whether he gets to celebrate with his family or new love Taylor Swift.
While fans relish moments of the high-profile couple openly showing their support, be it at the Kansas City Chiefs tight-end’s football matches or the “Cruel Summer” singer’s Eras Tour, anticipation is growing for potential heartwarming Christmas snapshots of the duo.
However, the verdict is still pending, as the NFL star is slated to play against the Las Vegas Raiders on Christmas day. Simultaneously, his older brother Jason Kelce, a center for the Philadelphia Eagles, will also be immersed in on-field action against the New York Giants.
Speaking with People about his Christmas and game day plans, and how the Kelce family, particularly mom Donna Kelce, might handle it, Travis shared they still plan to celebrate together, even if that comes a day late.
“My brother sent me a text and said he’s going to be celebrating afterwards,” he explained.
And regardless of the timing, he maintained: “It will be a fun one,” adding that “it’s always a luxury playing for Kansas City – home and away,” even if that means a Christmas day game.
Travis and Taylor were most recently together on Sunday, when the Grammy-winner enjoyed watching the Chiefs win a game against the Patriots 27-17 from a private suite at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts alongside her dad Scott Swift.
Though Scott is a Pennsylvania native and longtime Philadelphia Eagles fan, Travis did confess to his brother, an Eagles player, that he got him over to the “good side,” a.k.a. the Chiefs fan base, after they met during one of Taylor’s shows in Argentina.
During a recent episode of their podcast New Heights, after Jason noted seeing Scott wearing a Chiefs lanyard throughout the concert, Travis joked: “Got him over here to the good side. Just one by one getting all the good ones to come over,” before revealing he “might have persuaded him” when he met him the night before at dinner
He also proved that he is starting to get to know Scott well, and he impressed his brother as he shared that Mr. Swift was also once a football player.
He concluded his candid insight into the special weekend with: “For those of you who haven’t seen all the videos of me on your TikTok and your Instagram feed, I was enjoying myself down there in Buenos Aires.
“The show was even more electric knowing I had a little bit more to enjoy it for, and Taylor absolutely ripped it, she killed it, and it looked like she was having some fun out there
