Travis Kelce and his Brother Jason Kelce are giving the people what they want. During a segment of the newest episode of their podcast, Jason got the conversation started about Travis’s time in Argentina with his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, and how it feels to now be known as the “Guy on the Chiefs.”
Kelce also shared a public apology with Taylor Swift’s dad after Jason joked with him that Travis left Mr. Swift hanging during the celebration. “When I heard it come out of her mouth, it still shocked me,” Travis explained after admitting he knew Taylor was going to change the lyrics. That’s when Jason joked that he left Taylor’s dad hanging during the excitement of the lyric change.
“Mr. Swift, I apologize, big guy. I never miss a high five too.”

Travis Kelce’s reaction to Taylor Swift changing the lyrics of her song live on stage to celebrate their relationship publicly is one you have to see. Take a look:

New videos of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce following her latest concert will have you melting and believing in true love.
A TikTok user by the name Bethany has shared several photos of Kelce at Swift’s latest “The Eras Tour” show in Argentina. And while Kelce had a blast watching his girlfriend do her thing on stage while standing next to Swift’s father, it’s the video of Taylor running into Travis’s arms that will have you rooting for them.

Swift also allegedly changed the words to her song Karma knowing Travis was in the audience. Usually, the song goes, “Karma is my boyfriend coming straight home to me.” But during the concert, Taylor sang, “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me,” along with a giggle.
How cute is that?

Swifties are no strangers to a good Easter egg hunt – it’s something Taylor Swift has openly encouraged in the past with the things she does and says (and how she does and says it). With that said, it comes as no surprise that her fans are using their honed skills to piece together her relationship with Travis Kelce.
On Friday (October 20), Kelce was talking to reporters ahead of his game on Sunday when he dropped an unexpected hint at the true timeline of his relationship with Taylor. The 34-year-old was talking about how he and Taylor will likely be the inspiration behind a lot of couples’ Halloween costumes this season.
Of course, a big part of that costume is going to be the ‘stache he has sported since training camp. “That ‘stache and the 87 jersey was pretty iconic there for a little bit and I had it when I met Taylor for the first time,” he said – telling fans to start growing their facial hair if dressing up as him this Halloween season.
To most people, that comment went in one ear and out the other. To Swifties listening around the world, it was just another Easter egg on their ongoing and seemingly never-ending hunt as they continue to piece together every possible detail there is to know about T-Swift’s life story – and they succeeded, yet again.
While the origin of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s relationship is unknown, we can now confirm that their relationship started sometime after August 2 – when he debuted his new ‘stache at training camp. Since he had the ‘stache’ when he met Taylor for the first time, it would have to be some time after that date.
Of course, talk of a potential relationship began in July when Travis opened up on his podcast about wanting to give Taylor a friendship bracelet with his phone number digits on it before/after her concert at Arrowhead Stadium – which he attended. He, unfortunately, never got the opportunity to give it to her.

“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, so I was a little butthurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her,” Travis told his older brother, Jason Kelce, during a July episode of their New Heights podcast.
Things Start Heating Up Between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift
His recent comment about the ‘stache falls in line with reports in mid-September that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift had been ‘quietly hanging out’ and had been ‘been texting and talking here and there’ for several weeks. Of course, there was a podcast episode on August 31 when Taylor got brought up again.

“Have you found out what Taylor Swift thinks of your mustache?” his brother, Jason Kelce, jokingly said – of course, the Swift-Kelce relationship hadn’t been confirmed at that point. “Yeah, we’re not going to bring up Taylor Swift in this episode, but something tells me she’s going to like it,” Travis quickly responded.

By mid-September, they were reportedly hanging out and Travis even said that he threw the ball in her court – inviting her to one of his games. She quickly accepted and was spotted at his Sept. 24 game – seated alongside his mother, Donna Kelce, of all people. At this point, the relationship was fairly obvious.

Swift has now been to four of Kelce’s past five games. They recently made a cameo appearance on Saturday Night Live last week and were spotted holding hands in New York City the following night (and the night after that). The newfound couple aren’t just the talk of the town – they’re the talk of every town.
