Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made a public appearance at the University of Cincinnati Bearcats versus Nebraska Cornhuskers football game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, on 28/8, according to Page Six. Kelce played for the Cincinnati Bearcats. The couple attended with Kelce's brother and his wife, as well as his current teammate, Patrick Mahomes.
A video on X (formerly Twitter) of Swift waving to fans gained around 500,000 views within hours. Other images also attracted hundreds of thousands of views.
This appearance marked Swift's first public outing since announcing her engagement on Instagram on 26/8. While the exact proposal date remains undisclosed, Kelce's father confirmed it took place about two weeks prior in a garden in Lee's Summit, Missouri.
Billboard reported that Swift's engagement photos set a record for the fastest post to reach one million re-shares on Instagram. The post surpassed 14 million likes within an hour and currently sits at 33 million. Swift's song "So High School" experienced a 400% increase in streams on Spotify. International media and social media have been buzzing about their relationship, highlighting key moments from their two-year romance.
Their relationship began when Kelce caught Swift's attention at her Eras Tour concert in Kansas City in July 2023. They kept their relationship private until September 2023. Since then, they have regularly appeared at each other's events. In recent months, the couple has kept a low profile, enjoying downtime after completing major projects.
Kelce's new NFL season begins on 5/9. It is uncertain whether Swift will accompany him as she did during the previous two seasons. She is preparing for the release of her 12th studio album, "The Life of a Showgirl," on 3/10. Sources reveal the couple is considering purchasing an $18 million estate in Ohio, near Kelce's hometown, which reportedly includes a recording studio.
Swift, 36, is known as America's "country music princess". Debuting in 2006, she achieved early success. In her nearly 20-year career, she has won 14 Grammys, 30 VMAs, and embarked on numerous world tours. Her net worth is estimated at $1.6 billion, according to Forbes.
Kelce, also 36, is an NFL superstar with numerous records. Before his relationship with Swift, he dated model Kayla Nicole for five years, separating in May 2022.
