Travis Kelce has finally revealed just how much he spent on a suite for his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, to watch the Kansas City Chiefs’ victory at Super Bowl 58. The Kansas City star, now the highest-paid tight end in the league, shelled out millions for the “Love Story” songstress and her friends back in February.
During a scene in Netflix’s new sports docuseries, Kelce told San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle that Super Bowl suites were selling for $3 million.
This extravagant gesture is just one example of the lavish spending that has characterized the couple’s whirlwind romance.
Kelce and Swift have been together for the better part of a year, and their relationship shows no signs of slowing down. However, their courtship comes with a hefty price tag.
The couple reportedly spends more than the average American two-income household brings in annually every single day. While this may seem extreme, breaking down the expenses reveals how such a figure is reached.
The couple’s private jets alone are costing a fortune as Kelce and Swift travel for the Eras Tour. Filling these jets with Joe’s Kansas City Barbecue, seafood alfredo, and Coca-Cola adds to the costs. Additionally, the couple is splitting the cost of 20 bodyguards, who each make $1,000 a day. Kelce also spends thousands daily on flowers for Swift’s dressing room, though this cost is mitigated somewhat by her performing only three or four nights a week.
It has been a year since Kelce first attended the Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium, failing to meet Swift initially. According to a comprehensive timeline on Billboard, Kelce started addressing the rumors of their relationship in mid-September, and Swift attended her first game on September 24th. This means the couple has been dating for approximately 270 days. With an estimated daily expenditure of $100,000, their total spending so far exceeds $27 million.
Kelce and Swift seemingly do not worry about the money they’re spending. Kelce’s $17 million annual salary allows for such lavish expenditures, though he might occasionally wake up in a cold sweat thinking about the number of live reads for Crown Royal he’ll need to do to cover the costs. His performing with Swift could be a financial relief since backup dancers get paid and travel for free.
With training camp starting soon and the football season following, things should slow down for Kelce. Swift will head to Canada in mid-November and early December for more shows, allowing Kelce to stay home and let his credit cards cool off.
However, there may be more significant expenses on the horizon. According to sources, Swift is thinking about marriage. If Kelce is serious about their future, he will need to save up two months’ salary for an engagement ring. Fortunately, if Swift’s parents are traditionalists, they might offer to pay for the wedding.
As fans eagerly follow every step of this high-profile romance, one thing is clear: Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s love story is as extravagant as it is captivating.
