Since then, Swift has become a regular presence at Chiefs games, attending alongside family members and friends and showing her support for Kelce both on and off the field.
On Sunday, Swift and Kelce made a coordinated entrance at Arrowhead Stadium, each sporting shades of red in a show of team spirit.Mecole Hardman and Chariah Gordon, who got engaged in June, welcomed their son, Mecole Hardman III, on the same day the Chiefs secured their Super Bowl victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on February 12, 2023.
Sunday’s game was a special occasion for the family, as it marked their son’s first time attending a game at GEHA Field, an event that Gordon proudly shared with her followers.
