Travis Kelce Shows Support After Taylor Swift Buys Back Her Masters

Travis Kelce is fully aware that Taylor Swift, his girlfriend, has long anticipated the moment when she would regain ownership of her music.

On May 30th, when Taylor Swift, known for her hit “Karma,” shared that she had purchased the masters to her first six albums on Instagram, her boyfriend of almost two years was prompt in expressing his support by liking her post.

She expressed, “We are meant to be together,” accompanied by images of her albums titled Taylor Swift, Fearless, Speak Now, Red, 1989, Reputation. She then appended, “Find the letter on my website with a smiley face.

On their website, a digitally crafted handwritten-style letter penned by the Grammy winner unveiled the exciting announcement.

“All of the music I’ve ever made,” she wrote, “now belongs…to me.”

Taylor went on, “Every one of my music videos, concert recordings, album covers and photos, unheard songs, memories, enchantment, chaos – every bit of it from each phase of my career. Essentially, all that I’ve created throughout my life.

The struggle over the rights to her music became more intense following Scooter Braun’s Ithaca Holdings LLC acquiring her previous record label, Big Machine Records, in June 2019. (He later sold the label to Shamrock Capital, allowing Taylor Swift to regain control of the masters the following year.)

Back then, Taylor openly discussed her endeavor to acquire ownership of her music prior to her parting from her initial record label, which occurred at the end of 2018.

For quite some time, she had been requesting and begging for the chance to claim ownership of her work. However, what she received was an offer to re-sign with Big Machine Records, where she could “earn” one album back at a time, receiving each new one in exchange for the previous one she submitted. Unwilling to sign the contract, as she knew that Scott Borchetta would eventually sell the label, thereby selling her and her future along with it. (Swift wrote this on her Tumblr page)

During the course of her battle, Taylor asserted control over her own work by re-recording songs that weren’t hers, unveiling Fearless (Taylor’s Version), Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), Red (Taylor’s Version) and 1989 (Taylor’s Version) between 2022 and 2024.

In a heartfelt note to her fans, Taylor expressed gratitude by saying, “It’s your ardent enthusiasm for those albums and the triumph of The Eras Tour that enabled me to regain ownership of my music.” She continued, “I can hardly express how thankful I am for your role in returning this work, which has been the centerpiece of my life, back to me.

It’s only natural that Travis is so thrilled about his girlfriend achieving this significant milestone. They have both shown their unwavering support for each other, cheering each other on in all aspects of life – from his football matches to her performances at the concert venue.

On the Stephen A. Smith Show in January, the Kansas City Chiefs star expressed, “It’s wonderful having a robust relationship because it offers the backing to concentrate fully on your profession. It allows you to dedicate yourself entirely to becoming the finest version of yourself.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s romantic journey kicked off in July 2023, during her Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium located in Kansas City, Missouri.

As a big fan of Taylor Swift, the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs was eagerly anticipating the concert, hoping to present Taylor with a friendship bracelet bearing his number. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to make the connection because of her pre-performance routines.

Travis explained on his New Heights podcast during the July 26th episode that he felt somewhat upset because she doesn’t chat before or after performances as she needs to preserve her voice for the 44 songs she sings. Consequently, he didn’t get a chance to present her with one of the bracelets he made for her.

Following his blunder, which Travis would later refer to as being “as cold as steel,” he mustered up courage and extended an invitation for the Grammy-winning artist to witness the Chiefs’ game at Arrowhead Stadium.

He mentioned on The Pat McAfee Show that he had made an offer, specifically by tossing the ball into her court. In other words, he told her, “I’ve noticed your amazing performances at Arrowhead, perhaps you could come witness my performance there and we’ll see who shines brighter.” So, we’ll have to wait and see what unfolds in the coming days.

Travis sported a mustache, having grown it in August at the training camp, when he initially met Taylor for the first time.

In the heat of my fandom, I can’t help but reminisce about the unforgettable moment when I first crossed paths with Taylor. Back then, that ‘stache and the number 87 jersey were nothing short of iconic, and I was proudly sporting them. It was a symbol of our shared admiration!

According to a reliable source, by early September, Travis and Taylor were exchanging texts and having occasional conversations.

“It’s been very low-key,” the insider explained, “as he’s been in season.”

Following Travis’ invitation, Taylor went to Arrowhead Stadium to watch Donna Kelce and her son play with the Chiefs against the Chicago Bears. After the match, Taylor and Travis were spotted showing affection publicly at a nearby pub.

Despite popular belief suggesting they met for the first time in person, the “Karma” singer subsequently explained that they had already spent a substantial period interacting and getting acquainted prior to their initial encounter.

As Taylor noted, “We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.” 

To hint at the growing bond between them, Taylor took her circle – comprising friends like Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner, Hugh Jackman, Sabrina Carpenter, and Antoni Porowski – to see the Chiefs compete against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.

It’s another indication that Travis might be “The One.” Taylor seems to have developed a connection with Brittany Mahomes, who is married to Travis’ close friend and colleague Patrick Mahomes, both on and off the NFL field.

On October 14th, unexpectedly, the couple showcased their relationship on the Saturday Night Live episode, furthermore, they seized New York City that day by attending the after-party for the NBC sketch show and enjoying an evening out at the Waverly Inn.

During a bye week, I, an ardent fan, embarked on a journey to Argentina, specifically to catch Taylor’s Eras Tour’s South American leg. The NFL star and I found ourselves at the Nov. 11 show in Buenos Aires, where we had the unique opportunity to connect with Scott Swift, Taylor’s father. But that’s not all! In an extraordinary turn of events, I was given a special shoutout from the stage by none other than Taylor himself, making this experience one I will cherish forever.

“Karma is that guy on the Chiefs,” Taylor sang, “coming straight home to me.”

Following the performance, the artist associated with Midnights was spotted rushing towards Travis off-stage, giving him a fervent kiss as a gesture of warmth.

Taylor addressed the lavender craze surrounding her appearances at Travis’ games.

She informed Time magazine that they will both be present as he pursues his passion, expressing mutual support. It’s not important to them if others are also there, as privacy regarding their relationship is not a priority. In contrast, she stated that some people might go to great lengths to keep their relationships secret.

 

On December 17th, the music star transformed Travis’ game into a family event by inviting her father to support her partner, with him cheering enthusiastically.

On New Year’s Eve for the very first time, Taylor and Travis celebrated the occasion as a pair, exchanging a tender kiss when the clock chimed at the stroke of midnight on January 1st.

Taylor continued to grow closer to Travis’ relatives, spending time with his brother Jason Kelce and Kylie Kelce during the Kansas City Chiefs’ match against the Buffalo Bills.

Or, more informally:

Taylor kept getting cozy with Travis’ kin, hanging out with Jason Kelce and Kylie Kelce at the Chiefs game versus the Bills.

On the day when the Chiefs clinched the AFC Championship and secured their place in the 2024 Super Bowl, Taylor linked up with Travis on the football field for a joyful moment. After the exciting win, they enthusiastically shared a celebratory kiss before expressing their deep affection by using “L-word” terms of endearment.

“Tay, I’m gonna enjoy with the guys,” he told her. “I love you—so much it’s not funny.”

 
 

On the field following Travis’s leadership that brought the Kansas City Chiefs triumph on February 11, 2024 in Las Vegas, the duo passionately shared a kiss.

On a thrilling February 12th, I, an overjoyed fan, was the first to witness Taylor sharing hilarious clips of Travis on social media! The footage captured our beloved Travis taking my parents – yes, you read that right – clubbing with him post-Super Bowl. Can’t get enough of this adorable bonding moment!

Taylor’s initial Instagram post, which included Travis, was a selfie taken with Prince William, his spouse Kate Middleton, their eldest children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, behind the scenes during Taylor’s concert tour show at Wembley Stadium in London.

At his seventh Eras tour concert, specifically at Wembley Stadium in London, the NFL player made an appearance on stage alongside his girlfriend, assisting her during her rendition of “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart”.

Taylor attended the initial game of the 2024-25 season for the Chiefs alongside Travis. A picture posted by Chariah Gordon hints at a moment reminiscent of a public display of affection (PDA) between them, as seen in this snapshot, where she is with her partner, Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman.

The duo were present at the wedding of Karen Elson, who tied the knot with Lee Foster, the proprietor of Electric Lady Studios, held in New York City.

The next day, the pair attended the men’s singles final match at the U.S. Open.

The two stepped out for a double dinner date with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds in NYC.

Over the final weekend of 2024, they exited together for two successive outings in New York City. They coordinated their attire on each occasion.
