Travis Kelce Calls Himself the ‘No. 1 Swiftie’ Ahead of Super Bowl
Travis Kelce is loud and proud regarding how he feels about Taylor Swift. The couple started dating in 2023 and remain stronger than ever in 2025. Swift frequently attends Kelce’s games with the Kansas City Chiefs to show her support, and Kelce is sure to show the same level of support in return by heading to several of her shows during “The Eras Tour.” In January 2025, Kelce admitted he’s the “No. 1 Swiftie” of all time during an interview.

Travis Kelce has no problem telling the world how in love he is with Taylor Swift. He attended several of her shows during “The Eras Tour” and appeared on stage, much to the delight of her fans. While Swift retained a high level of privacy in her past relationships, she’s significantly more open with the public regarding her loving relationship with Kelce.
Kelce talked football ahead of Super Bowl LIX with Stephen A. Smith. And, of course, Kelce’s relationship with Swift came up in the conversation. Kelce explained how Swift encourages him to keep playing at the top of his game for as long as possible. He feels he receives all of the support necessary to continue in the NFL.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end then answered whether it was OK for Smith to call him a Swiftie — the name of Swift’s fans.
“Yeah, I’m the No. 1 Swiftie,” Kelce said with a smile. “No. 1, you know it.”
“Even more than Mama?” Smith asked him, referring to Donna Kelce. “She seems to be a Swiftie now.”
“C’mon now,” Kelce continued, “you already know. I’m right there. We’re neck and neck. We’re right there; we’re tied at the top.”
Taylor Swift invited her close friends and family to watch Super Bowl LIX with her
Taylor Swift maintains her status as the most supportive girlfriend by attending Super Bowl LIX to cheer on Travis Kelce. According to The U.S. Sun, Swift invited Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Ice Spice, Sabrina Carpenter, Selena Gomez, and Benny Blanco to sit with her and watch the game.
“Taylor would like to have some of her close friends and family all together and be there to show love and support her man,” an insider told the publication.
Kelce and Swift allegedly told Lively and Reynolds early on to prepare for the big event. “Blake and Ryan have been talking with Taylor and Travis about it when they spent days together a couple of months ago, and they told them not to book anything for that time of the year and to get ready to go to New Orleans at the beginning of the year,” the source continued, adding that the Super Bowl has been “a conversation since the beginning of the season.”
Travis Kelce said he’s not ‘here to hide anything’ regarding his romance

During an appearance on the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast in June 2024, Kelce explained how he’s “proud” of the woman he’s dating and isn’t afraid for others to know.
“You want to keep things private, but at the same time, I’m not here to hide anything,” the tight end explained. “That’s my girl, you know what I mean? That’s my lady. So, it’s like, I’m proud of that. I’m not sitting here trying to juggle, like, ‘How can I keep this under wraps,’ you know what I mean? We just don’t want to let everybody into your personal life and be able to comment on it knowing that everything she does is getting a headline.”
