<p id=”par-2_57″>Before announcing he’d be back for another season in February 2025, Kelce and Swift “definitely discussed” his retirement from football “as a couple,” per <em><a href=”https://pagesix.com/2025/03/18/celebrity-news/how-taylor-swift-influenced-travis-kelces-decision-not-to-retire-from-the-kansas-city-chiefs/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Page Six</a>.</em> The Grammy winner, for her part, let her boyfriend of nearly two years know where she stood on the topic. (Swift did it ju it before with the Super Bowl, btw.) </p>
<p id=”par-3_28″>“She didn’t want Travis to retire,” an insider told the outlet, before revealing the <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/taylor-swifts-warning-travis-kelce-not-repeating-history-super-bowl.html/”>advice she gave</a> him. “She wanted him to go out on a high note.” </p>
<p id=”par-4_28″>Kelce and the Chiefs didn’t end the 2024-25 season on a high. They lost 40-22 to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIV with Swift in the stands. </p>
<p id=”par-5_45″>Since then, the “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” singer has reportedly <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/taylor-swift-trying-to-be-there-travis-kelce-difficult-super-bowl-loss-insider-says.html/”>tried to “be there”</a> for Kelce as they <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/travis-kelce-taylor-swift-face-huge-hurdle-relationship-chiefs-super-bowl-loss.html/”>handle the loss together</a>. Although Swift’s opinion on a potential retirement was “taken into consideration,” per the publication, the final decision was Kelce’s. </p>
<p id=”par-6_47″>“He has to be able to physically do it,” an insider said, adding that the Ohio native has to feel confident his body can withstand another season. Swifties and KC fans can “of course” expect to see Swift in the stands when football resumes in the fall. </p>

<p id=”par-7_53″>When Kelce does retire from football he may also change his address. A previous report claimed the 35-year-old is <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/travis-kelce-all-in-taylor-swift-relationship-major-way.html/”>“all in” on moving</a> to Nashville, Tenn., with Swift when his time in Kansas City ends. (Swift owns multiple properties in “Music City” where she began her music career in earnest as a teen.) </p>
<p id=”par-8_74″>“Nashville is the place where she started her career, and this is all coming full circle. They both love the city,” an insider said of Kelce and Swift. “It is beautiful and it offers them the peace and tranquility with the assurance of safety that they both require.”<br><br>“It’s been a discussion on what is next,” they added, noting talks about the future have “all been productive and they are so on the same page.”</p>

<p id=”par-9_59″>For now, though, the pair are enjoying spending more time together now that their schedules aren’t filled with football games and concerts. As insiders told <a href=”https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/taylor-swift-travis-kelce-letting-the-rest-of-the-world-go-on-break/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”><em>Us Weekly</em></a>, Swift and Kelce have primarily <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/taylor-swift-advised-lay-low-protect-brand-following-travis-kelce-super-bowl-backlash-source-says.html/”>been “laying low”</a> at the NFL star’s home. “Taylor and Travis are taking it easy right now,” one source said. “They’ve been laying low in Kansas City.” </p>
<p id=”par-10_51″>It has also included <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/travis-kelce-may-propose-taylor-swift-upcoming-vacation-insider-says.html/”>jetting off on vacation</a>. “They went to Park City[, Utah] to go skiing,” the first source said. (Kelce and Swift were spotted exiting a restaurant.) “They’ve been traveling, spending precious time together, and letting the rest of the world go for a bit,” a second insider added.</p>
<p id=”par-11_28″>Since then, the “Fortnight” singer and professional athlete have been spotted in New York. Swift also appeared virtually to accept an honor at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards. </p>
