Star Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce faced an unexpected dilemma when his Midwest residence became inundated with mail after his address was leaked to the public last year.
People from all corners of the globe sent him various items, prompting Kelce to take action.
He had to request the post office to halt mail deliveries to his home.
On the latest episode of “New Heights,” Kelce opened up about the newfound attention brought on by his relationship with pop sensation Taylor Swift.
This sudden surge in fame led to significant changes in his life, including instances where paparazzi swarmed his former residence, disrupting his peace.
Consequently, Kelce made the decision to relocate to a luxurious gated community in a Kansas City suburb midway through last season.
Kelce’s relocation involved a shift from the Briarcliff West neighborhood on the Missouri side of Kansas City to Leawood, Kansas.
After acquiring his new $6 million secure residence, which might occasionally see visits from Swift herself during holidays, Kelce has maintained a silence regarding whether mail deliveries have resumed at his new address or if he has encountered any paparazzi presence at his home.
“The one thing you don’t realize when somebody posts your house online, that everybody now has your address and people just send stuff to your house, so I literally stopped getting mail to my house,” Kelce said on his podcast.
“I had to literally tell the post office and everybody stop bringing stuff to my house … Anything sent to my house, send right back to the sender, so anybody that’s just sending random s*** to my house, it’s not getting to me,” Kelce continued.
Travis Kelce co-hosts the “New Heights” podcast alongside his older brother, Jason Kelce, who transitioned from a center to a broadcaster.
Just recently, Kelce inked a lucrative new 2-year contract with the Chiefs, solidifying his status as the highest-paid tight end in the league.
Despite his soaring professional achievements, Kelce’s personal life also continues to draw attention, particularly his relationship with Taylor Swift.
The couple’s bond appears strong, as evidenced by their joint attendance at Patrick Mahomes’ 15 and the Mahomies Foundation gala last weekend.
Since publicly stepping out together last September, Kelce’s celebrity status has soared, with every public appearance garnering significant attention.
