Friday marks an important milestone in Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s relationship: the one-year anniversary of the Kansas City Chiefs star first publicly expressing his interest in the pop icon.
It all began on Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast, which he hosts with his brother Jason. During an episode recorded a year ago today, Kelce shared his disappointment about not being able to give Swift a friendship bracelet he had made for her at one of her concerts.
This charming gesture was Kelce’s first public attempt at “shooting his shot” with Swift. By September, the two were dating, and their relationship quickly became a topic of fascination for fans and media alike.
Fans took to social media to celebrate the anniversary of that pivotal podcast episode. One fan tweeted, “Happy anniversary to the most iconic ‘New Heights’ video to ever exist. I can’t believe it’s been one year since my delulu ship started and became true. Travis, I always believed in you, and look at them now.”
Another added, “Forever thankful for friendship bracelets, ‘New Heights,’ and Jason being an inquisitive big brother.”
A third fan reminisced, “Life really got in the way of this. But it’s the one-year anniversary of THE podcast. So I think now is as good a time as any to bring this back and try to actually keep it updated.”
“Happy one-year anniversary to the podcast episode that changed lives. Travis revealed he tried to give Taylor a friendship bracelet, but she didn’t want to meet him,” a fourth fan noted.
A fifth person chimed in, “Happy one-year anniversary of Travis putting Taylor on blast on his podcast!”
The couple has shown no signs of slowing down as they approach their one-year mark as an official couple.
Their relationship, which started with a simple but heartfelt gesture, has blossomed into one of the most talked-about romances in both the sports and entertainment worlds.
Reflecting on how it all began, it’s remarkable to see how a small friendship bracelet and a bit of courage on a podcast could spark such a significant and beloved relationship.
As Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift continue to write their love story, fans are eagerly watching, celebrating each milestone along the way.
