Taylor Swift wrapped up her “Eras Tour” on Sunday night, which means she’s about to have plenty of free time to spend with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
Unfortunately, Kelce’s schedule is packed over the next few months as the Chiefs close out the regular season and try to make NFL history as the first team to win three straight Super Bowls. Still, Kelce won’t let his NFL commitments get in the way of making Swift’s birthday and Christmas special.
Travis Kelce Focused on Giving Taylor Swift an ‘Extra Special’ Birthday Celebration
Kelce is reportedly going all out to give Swift an unforgettable birthday.
“This is a milestone birthday for Taylor, so he wants to make it extra special,” an insider told Page Six. “Travis has only let a few of those closest to him know what he has in store for Taylor because he doesn’t want to ruin any surprises.”
The Chiefs have a road game against the Cleveland Browns two days after Swift’s birthday on Dec. 15, but Kelce has everything all planned out.
“[Kelce has] been shopping for Christmas and birthday gifts for Taylor for quite a while now,” the insider said. “[He’s] not the type to leave these things to the last minute, so he’s been picking up items here and there for the past several months whenever he has a chance. Some of the gifts are things Taylor has casually mentioned she would like. Travis makes sure to always listen even when Taylor doesn’t realize he is.”
It remains to be seen how Kelce and Swift will celebrate her 35th birthday, but it sounds like the Chiefs tight end has some big plans.
Many fans are hoping that Kelce pops the question to the pop superstar.
Recently, when Kelce congratulated Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen and actor Hailee Steinfeld on their engagement, Swifties responded to Kelce’s comment by saying things like “your move” and “you’re next!”
Swift’s birthday isn’t the only holiday that could be impacted by the Chiefs’ schedule. Kansas City also has a road game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day at 1 p.m. ET.
“Although he’ll be playing on Christmas and has an away game the weekend of Taylor’s birthday, Travis is going to make sure to take time out to celebrate both occasions with her,” the insider stated.
Last year, Swift celebrated her birthday in New York alongside some of her closest friends, including Blake Lively, Gigi Hadid, and Sabrina Carpenter. Unfortunately, Kelce couldn’t attend the party last year because he had practice.
What Is the Age Gap Between Swift and Kelce?
Kelce was born on Oct. 5, 1989, in Westlake, Ohio, meaning he is 35 years old.
Swift was born on Dec. 13, 1989, in West Reading, Pa., meaning she turned 35 years old today.
The age gap between Travis and Taylor is just 69 days.
Swift Has an Adorable Exchange With a Fan About Kelce
While signing autographs at a hospital, Swift met with a fan who explained that they recently became a fan of Kelce and the Chiefs, and Swift had the perfect response.
“I like Travis now,” the fan said.
“Yes, me too,” Swift responded. “That’s an absolute yes on that one. … Is he your favorite player?”
“Yeah, either that or Patrick [Mahomes],” the fan stated.
“Good. These are good answers,” Swift said. “You are acing this!”
