Initially, when Swift and Kelce started dating, people kept their distance, allowing Kelce to navigate the new relationship without interference. As the TE brought his girlfriend around, perceptions changed as people realized how cool and genuine she was.
“Then, he started bringing Taylor around, and he realized how cool of a person she was, and she is, and so for us, there were a couple of jokes here and there at the beginning,” Patrick Mahomes admitted.
Mahomes emphasized that Taylor is now considered not just an outsider but a part of the Chiefs Kingdom, symbolizing acceptance within the team.
“She’s just part of Chiefs Kingdom,” Patrick said. “And she’s part of the team.”
Taylor Swift attended her first Chiefs game on September 24 at Arrowhead Stadium during the victory against the Chicago Bears. Over subsequent games, she developed a friendship with Brittany, sitting together and bonding over their relationships with NFL players.
Patrick Mahomes highlighted the cool dynamic between the pop icon and his wife, Brittany, expressing appreciation for the friendship that has developed between them. After spending time with Swift, Mahomes expressed satisfaction that she is the person she is, suggesting a positive and genuine personality.

Patrick Mahomes’ comments convey a positive and inclusive perspective, celebrating the integration of Taylor into the Chiefs community and emphasizing her genuine nature.

Kelce mentioned the learning process of dealing with paparazzi taking photos from various locations, indicating an adjustment to the increased scrutiny that comes with high-profile relationships.
He added, “Just gotta keep living and learning and enjoying the moments. At the end of the day, I’ve always been pretty good about compartmentalizing and being able to stay focused in this building. So I’ll just keep rolling with that.”
Their relationship has come a long way, marked by a journey of growth and development in Kelce and Swift’s connection. Now, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are planning to spend Christmas together, signaling a significant step in their relationship and commitment.
