In a lighthearted moment during a recent panel moderated by Mitch Holthus, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, 34, sparked laughter when he jokingly responded to a question about whether he loved Holthus more than his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.

Kelce quipped, “Maybe not,” much to the amusement of the audience, highlighting his strong bond with the pop superstar.

As the NFL season approaches, Kelce is focused on his commitments with the Chiefs, who are gearing up for their first game on September 5.

There’s speculation that Swift, 34, might be in attendance to support him, as she did throughout the previous season when she often cheered him on from the stands.

Her presence at Kelce’s games has not only strengthened their relationship but also fostered friendships with other athletes and their families.

Despite their busy schedules, Kelce and Swift have made time for each other. The couple, who have been dating for nearly a year, recently reunited at Swift’s mansion in Watch Hill, Rhode Island, for a star-studded party. The event featured notable guests like Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Bradley Cooper, and Gigi Hadid, showcasing the power couple’s close-knit celebrity circle.

Beyond football, Kelce has been expanding his career into other ventures. Alongside his brother, Jason Kelce, 36, Travis signed a lucrative nine-figure deal with Wondery for their podcast “New Heights,” which has skyrocketed in popularity, partly due to his high-profile romance with Swift. The podcast’s third season kicked off with a guest appearance from Adam Sandler, who teased a potential cameo for Kelce in the upcoming film “Happy Gilmore 2.”

Kelce’s public appearances and career moves continue to captivate fans and media alike, with every interaction between him and Swift being closely watched. Whether it’s sharing a laugh about their relationship or hinting at new professional ventures, Travis Kelce remains in the spotlight, balancing his life on and off the field with ease.
