Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are back in the United States after a ‘private, romantic getaway’ where they ‘reconnected’ after the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles earlier this month.
The timing and location of the vacation are unclear, but the tight end and his 14-time Grammy Award-winning girlfriend departed America soon after the Chiefs’ defeat.
Swift and Kelce have been back in America long enough to enjoy a date night together where they were undetected by the paparazzi.
‘Taylor and Travis had a really nice time reconnecting after a very busy year,’ the outlet reports.
The duo had little time together due to their schedules for months. Swift was busy with her ‘Eras Tour’ for much of 2024, while the NFL season demanded a ton from Kelce.
Kelce and Swift have kept a low profile, outside of the former’s hosting duties on his podcast, since the NFL season ended earlier this month.
Last offseason, Swift and Kelce had vacations to Lake Como and The Bahamas where they were photographed holding hands and enjoying the beach.
The reported date night for Kelce and Swift since returning to the United States likely was not in New York City as they have been swarmed by cameras when out to dinner in The Big Apple.
Swift and Kelce were last pictured together publicly at the Super Bowl in New Orleans, where the Chiefs’ star suffered his second championship-game loss of his NFL career.
Watching Kelce play from a luxury suite Missouri for the first time this season, Swift reportedly ‘knows how hard’ her boyfriend ‘worked all season and was thrilled to be at the Super Bowl to show her support.’
Kelce looked dejected on the field after the loss where Kansas City trailed by as many as 34 points in the third quarter.
“Taylor knows Travis took this loss very hard but she couldn’t be more proud of him regardless of the outcome,” a source shared.
The ‘Anti-Hero’ singer has been dating Kelce publicly since September 2023 and has attended 23 of his games since their romance began, with the team holding a 19-4 record in those contests.
Before the Super Bowl, the Chiefs had not lost with Swift in attendance since Christmas Day in 2023.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Tuesday he doesn’t know if Kelce plans to retire or not after telling the Chiefs icon to ‘get out of town and relax’ while he contemplates the decision.
A few days after the 40-22 humbling, the 35-year-old told brother Jason on their New Heights podcast that the ‘wear and tear’ on his body and mind could tempt him to hang up his cleats.
It remains to be seen whether he returns for a 13th season in the NFL later this year, but for now Reid is none the wiser about Kelce’s thought process.
After stressing that he doesn’t know what his star tight end will do, the Chiefs head coach told reporters at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis on Tuesday: ‘That’s up to Travis. At this point, get out of town and relax. That’s my motto for these guys. They played a lot of games for a consistent amount of seasons here.
‘So you get to the end and you’ve exhausted yourself mentally and physically… step back and take care of that, then we’ll talk.
‘But for right now, I think that’s what he’s doing.’
Reid also revealed that he held a customary end-of-season discussion with Kelce before he followed his advice and headed off on vacation.
‘He and I will get together,’ the 66-year-old clarified. ‘I had exit meetings with all the guys before they left, so we did have the chance to talk already.’
