Travis Kelce Talks About His Relationship With Taylor Swift, And How His Family Is Handling Fame

Buy Me A Coffee

Travis Kelce, football star, secret Swiftie, and apparent gladiator in a Pepsi commercial, is spilling the beans about life with THE Taylor Swift. The 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end sat down with CBS Mornings and, let’s just say, he’s handling the fame boost like a pro. (Or maybe like a guy who’s just realized he’s become the ultimate “boyfriend of the year” material for Swifties everywhere.)

“It’s the life I chose, I guess,” Travis said with the nonchalance of someone who’s just realized their relationship status might have boosted Eras Tour ticket sales by 15%. He laughed, probably because he’s still wrapping his head around how he went from catching footballs to possibly being the muse behind Taylor’s next breakup anthem. “I have fun with it,” he added, which is a good attitude when your every move is under Swiftie surveillance.

Travis admitted that dating a woman who could sell out entire continents comes with some… let’s call it “extra attention.” But hey, if you’re gonna be famous for something other than smashing linebackers, being Taylor Swift’s boyfriend isn’t the worst gig. “It comes with the territory of wanting to do fun activities like this,” Travis said, standing on the set of his Pepsi commercial—because if you’re dating Taylor, you’re not just a football player anymore. You’re an international sensation who also promotes beverages.

Mama Kelce? Living her best life. Dad? Still figuring out how to handle the swift fame. Jason Kelce? The guy was born for this spotlight. Honestly, the whole Kelce family is practically a spinoff waiting to happen. Maybe a reality show: Keeping Up with the Kelces, anyone?

And speaking of Swifties, Travis knows the real question on everyone’s mind: What’s his favorite Taylor Swift song? In a diplomatic move worthy of an award, he responded, “Oh, a bunch of them. They’re all my favorite. Literally, every single one.” (Translation: I don’t need that kind of pressure in my life, okay?) But you just know he’s probably practicing “Love Story” in front of the mirror.

When asked about the massive wave of people suddenly rooting for him (besides Chiefs fans, of course), Travis humbly said, “I hope it’s because they see I’m just a genuinely good person.” Or maybe it’s because Swifties know that if you hurt Taylor, they will find you.

The moral of this story? Travis Kelce is a good dude who can handle fame, football, Pepsi ads, and being part of Taylor Swift’s love story. Let’s just hope he doesn’t end up inspiring a heartbreaking bridge in her next hit song.

Catch the full interview while chugging a Pepsi—because, apparently, that’s what all the cool Swiftie boyfriends are doing now.
