Although Taylor Swift was not present at Travis Kelce’s Christmas Day game, she made her support for her boyfriend known in a subtle yet meaningful way. The singer showed her appreciation for Kelce’s incredible achievement—breaking the Kansas City Chiefs’ record for most receiving touchdowns—by “liking” the team’s celebratory Instagram post.
The post, which read, “If you ever can’t find Travis, chances are he’s in the end zone,” congratulated Kelce for surpassing Tony Gonzalez’s long-standing record of 76 receiving touchdowns. Kelce’s 77th touchdown, scored during the Chiefs’ 29-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, solidified his place in franchise history, and the Chiefs’ social media account called it a “Christmas gift to Chiefs Kingdom.”
A Christmas Victory and Milestone
Kelce’s touchdown was a key moment in the game, which helped the Chiefs clinch the No. 1 seed in the AFC, keeping their hopes for a playoff run strong. Despite Swift’s absence from Acrisure Stadium, where the game was held, her support was evident through her social media interaction.
The Grammy-winning artist, who has attended many of Kelce’s games this season, wasn’t in attendance for this one, but she made sure to honor his achievement in her own way.
Family Time for Swift and Kelce
While Swift was not in Pittsburgh for the game, Kelce’s teammates and their families were also absent, including Brittany Mahomes, wife of quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Instead, Brittany stayed home with the couple’s two young children, Sterling, 3, and Bronze, 2.
The family shared an adorable moment, all wearing matching pajamas for a cozy holiday celebration. Brittany posted a sweet message on Instagram, saying, “Game day snuggles,” highlighting her love for her family as they enjoyed some downtime together.
Brittany, who is expecting her third child with Patrick, a daughter, is nearing the end of her pregnancy.
Patrick revealed that their baby is due “any day now,” and he mentioned in a Netflix interview that he promised Brittany they would “get the No. 1 seed” before she went into labor. Brittany reposted his heartfelt message on her Instagram Story, expressing her admiration: “Always keeping his promises.”
Swift’s Growing Bonds with WAGs
As her relationship with Kelce continues to make headlines, Swift has also been seen bonding with other WAGs (wives and girlfriends of NFL players). She recently posed for celebratory selfies with Chariah Gordon, the fiancée of Mecole Hardman Jr., and exchanged Christmas gifts with Sheawna Weathersby, the girlfriend of defensive tackle Chris Jones.
These gestures have only further cemented Swift’s place in the Chiefs’ community, with her friendship extending beyond Kelce to other players’ families.
Though not physically present at the game, Swift’s quiet acknowledgment of Kelce’s milestone highlights the strong connection between the two, who have been dating since the summer.
It’s clear that their relationship is growing, and their shared moments of support, both on and off the field, are becoming a regular part of the Chiefs’ season.
