Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Relationship Timeline

July 7, 2023: Travis Kelce Attends Taylor Swift’s Eras Show in Kansas City

In his "New Heights" podcast, Kelce revealed that he attended the Eras concert in Kansas City, MO, with the intention of giving Swift his phone number. "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," Kelce recalled. "If you're up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets. And I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it."

Sept. 21, 2023: Travis Kelce Addresses the Rumours on “The Pat McAfee” Show

During his appearance on the show, Kelce addressed the dating speculation, saying, "It's hilarious how much traction this has actually got. I think, it's right now, it's like an old game in school called Telephone, where everyone's just whispering in each other's ear, just hearing some random stuff. No one actually knows what's going on, but especially when you got Jason Kelce on live television telling people just both sides."

When McAfee asked Kelce if he was bothered by the rumours, he responded, "No, it's life, baby. I threw it out there. I threw the ball in her court and, you know, I told her, 'I've seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead. You might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead and see which one is a little more lit.'"

That same day, a source close to Swift revealed to The Messenger that the singer is "in her fun girl era and strictly having fun right now." They continued, "She and Travis have hung out twice, and it's nothing serious. She thinks he is very charming, and they have been texting this last week. He is a little embarrassed at how much attention they are getting, but he has told her he would love to continue seeing her."
