Taylor Swift showed her support for Travis Kelce at a game between the Chiefs and Jets at MetLife Stadium, joined by Sophie Turner, Blake Lively, and others. This comes four months after Swift’s spectacular performance at the same venue during her Eras Tour.
Swift, reportedly in a relationship with Kelce, made a return to cheer him on as his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, clashed with the New York Jets. She was seen making her entry to the stadium on Sunday evening with friends including Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and Sabrina Carpenter.

The artist, known for “Anti-Hero”, was seen sporting high-waisted denim shorts, a black leather jacket, and boots, accompanied by her brother, Austin, to their seating area. Once seated, she resumed her lively cheering from a VIP section.
Also present were Kelce’s mother, Donna, and the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Brittany Mahomes, who exchanged conversations with Swift and her group. This gathering occurred a few hours post Kelce’s departure from Swift’s apartment in NYC after spending the morning together.
Speculations and discussions among Swift’s fan base regarding her possible attendance at the match arose after her visit to Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. garnered widespread attention the previous week. Rumors of her planned attendance at this game caused a surge in ticket prices.
Several fans noted that the renowned songwriter seems to be quite fond of Travis Kelce, showing up to support the football player in consecutive games. Information surfaced in September revealing their ongoing companionship, following Kelce’s public gesture to share his contact with Swift two months prior.
Swift not only witnessed the game from Kelce’s exclusive area along with his family but also exited the stadium with him. They proceeded to Prime Social rooftop bar, mingling with his fellow teammates and leaving together early in the morning, as observed by a witness.
Kelce expressed his admiration for Swift in a recent episode of his “New Heights” podcast, shared with his brother Jason Kelce, subtly hinting at his potential future with the singer. Despite their different levels of media exposure, Kelce spoke highly of Swift, emphasizing his preference to keep future discussions sports-centric.
Swift received praise from his family, with everyone expressing only positive remarks about her. However, Bethenny Frankel criticized Swift's fervent support, describing her as a "full football wife" and criticized her "over-the-top" behavior, cautioning her not to forsake her “identity.”
Swift had previously been involved with Matty Healy of the 1975 and had a six-year relationship with Joe Alwyn, which concluded in April. Kelce had been in an intermittent relationship with Kayla Nicole from 2017 to 2022.
