Travis Kelce Reveals Dating Taylor Swift: Life in the Spotlight
Travis Kelce is getting used to being in the spotlight following his romance with Taylor Swift. He revealed that he “never dated anyone with that kind of aura” in an interview with Wall Street Journal.
The Kansas City Chiefs NFL tight-end did not shy away, revealing how his love story started with the “Karma” singer in a recent interview for the cover of Wall Street Journal Magazine’s December/January issue. Kelce reflected on his first unsuccessful attempt at meeting Swift at the Eras Tour.
Kelce shared that he had “someone playing Cupid” and was unaware that Swift had known of his plan after he looked down at his phone. “She told me exactly what was going on and how I got lucky enough to get her to reach out,” he stated.
Without sharing too much about the couple’s first date, the Kansas athlete mentioned that he managed to shake off the jitters as he held prior conversations with the global superstar.
“When I met her in New York, we had already kind of been talking, so I knew we could have a nice dinner and, like, a conversation, and what goes from there will go from there,” he stated.
According to Kelce, “If anyone was nervous,” it was his group. “Everybody around me telling me: Don’t f- this up! And me sitting here saying: Yeah-got it,” he shared to Wall Street Journal.
Nowadays, Kelce doesn’t need to be asked about Swift. He mentions her unreservedly, lavishes praise on her, calls her “hilarious” and “a genius,” and says it’s a miracle the way she can turn life into poetry. https://t.co/3HzAainYdz pic.twitter.com/SITH6u2eFH

The NFL player is fond of Swift’s catchy tunes and gushes over how clever the 12-time Grammy winner is, her ability to “turn life into poetry,” and expressed that he is learning a lot from his girlfriend, including how to handle the attention.
“Obviously, I’ve never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them…. I’ve never dealt with it,” he mentioned. “But at the same time, I’m not running away from any of it.”
He added,”The scrutiny she gets, how much she has a magnifying glass on her every single day, paparazzi out her house, outside every restaurant she goes to, after every flight she gets off, and she’s just living, enjoying life,” he concluded.
Furthermore, Kelce and Swift’s bond appears to grow stronger while continuing to show up and support one another. Audiences can check out the Wall Street Journal piece here.
