OMG! Travis Kelce runs to Hug & Kiss Taylor Swift after her private jet lands in Kansas City
Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce greeted his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, at the airport on Thursday after she flew in from New York. The 34-year-old pop superstar, fresh off her Manhattan departure, landed on her private jet to reunite with Kelce.
Sources spotted the NFL player heading straight to Swift’s plane to greet her with a hug and a kiss, though cameras did not capture the intimate moment.
Swift’s arrival comes just ahead of several major events in Kansas City, including Kelce’s Kelsey Car Jam on October 5th, coinciding with his 35th birthday. The event will showcase his personal car collection at the Kansas City Auto Show.
Kelce confirmed Swift will be attending to support him during the celebration. The star-studded event is being held in conjunction with his charity, 87 & Running Foundation, which focuses on empowering disadvantaged children across the United States.
Kelce reflected on the importance of his charity’s mission, saying, “As a kid, I noticed how different everyone’s lives looked. But as a man, I’m acutely aware of the differences in opportunity, exposure, and privilege that I grew up with compared to others. When you live the circumstances you’re born into, the color of your skin shouldn’t affect the dreams you can dream. It’s amazing when a kid’s dream comes true.”
Kelce’s love of cars will be on full display at Kelsey Car Jam 2024, where fans will get to see some of the tight end’s collection, including his Rolls-Royce Ghost and a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, which Swift joined him in after attending her first Chiefs game. Kelce’s collection, worth millions, also features an Aston Martin Vanquish, Mercedes-Benz AMG G63, Land Rover Range Rover, Cadillac Escalade, and an electric GMC Hummer.
As Kelce approaches his 35th birthday, he has made some changes in his lifestyle to prolong his NFL career, notably cutting back on junk food. On his New Heights podcast with his older brother Jason Kelce, the Chiefs star revealed his struggle to avoid sugary treats like donuts in order to maintain peak performance. “I’m at that point in the season where I’ve got to push it away. I see that golden glazed donut just sitting there in the yellow box, and I’m like, ‘I don’t need that today,’” he said, admitting that desserts now make him feel lethargic.
Jason, who retired from the Philadelphia Eagles earlier this year at age 36, chimed in, saying, “It’s a sad day when you realize you’ve hit that age where you can’t eat whatever you want anymore. I tried to play football after eating ice cream, and I thought, ‘Oh, this is real.’”
Travis Kelce has had a challenging start to the 2024 NFL season, facing criticism after underwhelming performances in the first three games. However, he bounced back in the Chiefs’ recent win over the Los Angeles Chargers, recording 89 yards and a franchise-record 97th reception. NFL analyst Tony Romo declared, “Kelce is back,” while Jim Nantz added, “All the hot takes—you’ve got to find someone else to troll this week.”
Despite the praise, Kelce remains focused on improving his game. “It was a solid game,” Kelce said on his podcast. “But a big game is like, I score a touchdown or something. I was accountable, I didn’t have any drops, but there’s a lot that goes into having a great game. I helped my team win, and that’s all that will ever matter.”
With Swift in town for his birthday and their relationship continuing to captivate fans, Kelce seems determined to stay focused on both his personal and professional life.
