Taylor Swift fuels Travis Kelce romance talk as she cheers on NFL star at Kansas City match

Taylor Swift has fuelled rumours she’s dating American football star Travis Kelce by attending a Kansas City Chiefs game alongside his mother.

Pop star Swift, 33, has been linked to NFL tight end Kelce for a couple of months - but on Sunday the couple appeared to go public.

Swift, 33, who is currently travelling the world with her Eras tour, was seen at the Chiefs’s home game against the Chicago Bears on Sunday night.

Swift was spotted sitting next to the sportsman’s mother, Donna Kelce, while social media posts from the NFL and FOX show her getting into the game enthusiastically jumping and screaming along with the crowd.

Meanwhile, on Twitter a fan posted a short clip of Swift and Travis together in the locker room. In the post, Swift is seen smiling as she walks alongside the star.

Kelce, also 33, has previously revealed he gave his number to Swift when he attended her Eras Tour in July.

In recent weeks, he has talked about how he gave her his number on a friendship bracelet on his podcast, New Heights.

And on 20 September, his brother Jason - who is also an NFL star - confirmed his sibling’s budding romance on Audacy’s 94WIP Morning Show.

When asked about the rumours, he said speculation that his younger sibling and Swift were dating was “100 per cent true.”

It comes just days after Swift was spotted having dinner at NYC hotspot Via Carota with British Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner after the latter’s shock split from husband Joe Jonas.

Swift famously dated Jonas in 2008 - with the latter allegedly breaking up with the singer in a 25-second phone call.

More recently, Swift was linked to British rocker Matty Healy following her breakup with longterm boyfriend, British actor Joe Alwyn in May.

Healy has since moved on and is now said to be dating model Gabbriette Bechtel.
