<p id=”par-1_71″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/taylor-swift/?swcfpc=1″>Taylor Swift</a> and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/travis-kelce/”>Travis Kelce’s</a> romance was launched into the public eye at a Kansas City Chiefs game in 2023. They quickly became one of the most talked about couples in the world because of his success on the football field and her record-breaking Eras Tour. Swift acknowledged that many people thought the game was the first date, which she denied. She said she’d never want such a public first date.</p>

<p id=”par-2_21″>Swift and Kelce’s relationship went public <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/travis-kelce-nearing-deadline-nfl-retirement-leaning-direction.html/?swcfpc=1″>at a football game</a>. She said they’d been seeing each other before this moment, though.</p>
<p id=”par-3_57″>“This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell,” she told <a target=”_blank” href=”https://time.com/6342806/person-of-the-year-2023-taylor-swift/” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Time</a>. “We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other.”</p>

<p id=”par-4_14″>She said she would never have a first date in such a public way.</p>
<p id=”par-5_41″>“By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple,” she said. “I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.” </p>
<p id=”par-6_15″>She acknowledged that the relationship was public, but doesn’t think this is a bad thing.</p>
<p id=”par-7_66″>“When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care,” she said. “The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone. And we’re just proud of each other.”</p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-she-said-she-has-little-awareness-of-how-much-time-she-spends-onscreen-at-the-games”>She said she has little awareness of how much time she spends onscreen at the games</h2>
<p id=”par-8_29″>Whenever Swift attends one of Kelce’s games, she spends nearly as <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/taylor-swift-wants-avoid-attention-support-travis-super-bowl-lix-source-says.html/”>much time on camera</a> as he does. She said she never knows if she’s being filmed or not.</p>
<p id=”par-9_52″>“I don’t know how they know what suite I’m in,” she said. “There’s a camera, like, a half-mile away, and you don’t know where it is, and you have no idea when the camera is putting you in the broadcast, so I don’t know if I’m being shown 17 times or once.” </p>
<p id=”par-10_18″>Some have complained about her constant presence, but she said she tries not to let this bother her.</p>
<p id=”par-11_28″>“I’m just there to support Travis,” she said. “I have no awareness of if I’m being shown too much and pissing off a few dads, Brads, and Chads.”</p>

<p id=”par-13_41″>“Taylor has grown up a lot in the past couple of years,” a source told the <a target=”_blank” href=”https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-14230559/taylor-swift-travis-kelce-nashville-romance-shifted-priorities.html” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Daily Mail</a>. “Falling in love with Travis so deeply has shifted her priorities around a bit and has given her a new outlook on life.”</p>

<p id=”par-14_19″>Jason Kelce said he’s noticed a definite change in his brother, who reminded him of Peter Pan’s Lost Boys.</p>
<p id=”par-15_27″>“For sure. It’s changing,” he said. “I think sometimes you get people in your life that maybe get that out of you and that’s a good thing.”</p>
