Travis Kelce, the star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, ended the fifth day of the team’s training camp with a touching moment on Friday, July 26th.
After an intense practice session at Missouri Western State University, Kelce approached the fans, still sweaty from practice, and handed his game glove to a young supporter. The crowd erupted in cheers as Kelce’s thoughtful gesture made the young fan’s day.
This Friday held special significance for both Kelce and his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, as it marked one year since they first took a photo together.
Fans, affectionately known as “Swifties,” flooded social media to celebrate the milestone. One fan wrote, “Forever thankful for friendship bracelets, New Heights, and Jason being an inquisitive big brother.” Another added, “Travis adorably put Taylor on blast on his podcast exactly one year ago, and the rest is history. Well, Travis, you knew what you wanted, and you got her.” A third fan described their relationship as “a real-life romantic comedy.”
Kelce and Swift made their relationship public in September 2023 when Swift was seen cheering for him in the stands during a game against the Chicago Bears. Since then, she has become a regular presence at his games, supporting the Chiefs all the way to their Super Bowl victory in February. Reflecting on their relationship, Swift previously said, “We started hanging out right after the podcast episode. We had a significant amount of time that no one knew about, which I’m grateful for because we got to know each other.” She continued, “Some people think they saw our first date at that game. We would never be crazy enough to hard launch a first date.”
The couple’s relationship, which has captivated fans and media alike, continues to grow stronger. Kelce’s gesture at the training camp is just another example of his down-to-earth nature and his appreciation for his supporters. As the Chiefs gear up for another promising season, fans are excited to see more heartwarming moments from Kelce both on and off the field.
