It is the first time in a long time that Taylor Swift (33) has been seen in public with her lover. Since she started a relationship with football star Travis Kelce (34), photos of her at another football match have been continuously appearing on the internet. Aww! And now for the first time she talks openly with Time Magazine about her new lover Travis.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce
The relationship between 33-year-old singer-songwriter and world star Taylor Swift and 34-year-old American football player Travis Kelce has been going on for a while now. And that seemed to go quite smoothly, because the rumors only hit the internet about two months ago. Although Taylor and Travis have apparently been dating for longer than that, she says in an interview with Time Magazine, which named her Person of the Year 2023. The timeline of their relationship starts at the end of July 2023, when Travis talks about Taylor in his podcast. “This all started when Travis cutely put my music on his podcast,” she says. “We started hanging out right after that.”
Luckily for them, they then date without paparazzi at first. Taylor says she is “very grateful” for this, because they have gotten to know each other so well. Taylor and Travis’ first date therefore remains within their own circles forever. The media only found out about their early relationship months later. “By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple.” Aww!
Open relationship
The fact that Taylor now has such an open relationship is special for her. Especially during her previous relationship with actor Joe Alwyn, we saw almost no photos of the couple. With him, Taylor often fled from the camera. Although she was generally a bit more camera shy at the time. This is how the relationship with Joe started around 2016, when Taylor was hated on the internet and was called ‘snake’, among other things. She then had an open argument with Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, including over a piece of lyrics from Kanye’s song Famous. While she “removed” herself from social media, she privately enjoyed a romantic time with her ex. As a result, she got to know him extra well. There’s a good chance that’s why the relationship lasted six years. Unfortunately it ended this year.
But now Taylor is happy with Travis again and it seems like a great deal! She wants to keep few details to herself about their relationship, she says. “When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him doing what he loves, that we’re sticking up for each other, that there are other people out there and we don’t care,” Taylor said.
Support each other
And Taylor loves supporting Travis! But he also supports Taylor just as often. There are also images online of Travis at a concert on Taylor’s Era’s Tour. “We’re just proud of each other,” Taylor says. When she attends a match for Travis’ club Kansas City Chiefs, she doesn’t care whether or how often she appears on screen. “I’m just there to support Travis,” she says. “I’m not sure if I’m showing too much and pissing off some dads, ‘Brads’ and ‘Chads’.”
