Travis Kelce was reportedly showered with $42,000 worth of luxurious gifts from his girlfriend Taylor Swift just before the start of the new NFL season. As Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs kicked off their quest for a historic three-peat with a 27-20 win over the Baltimore Ravens, Swift showed her support in more ways than one.
Swift was spotted in the stands at Arrowhead Stadium on Thursday night, cheering on Kelce as the Chiefs secured their first victory of the 2024 campaign. This came just days after rumors of a breakup between the couple, fueled by a fake contract circulating on social media, were debunked. Despite the baseless rumors, Swift’s grand gesture made headlines for all the right reasons.
According to The US Sun, Swift treated Kelce to an extravagant assortment of gifts, totaling $42,000, to ensure he was set for the new season. The collection included designer bags, clothes, and accessories—many in red, the signature color of the Kansas City Chiefs.
A source close to Kelce revealed, “The team is going on the road for several long trips around the country, and Taylor thought it would be nice to surprise him with some travel essentials. She also got him some fall and winter clothes, knowing the colder months are approaching.”

Among the gifts were two Louis Vuitton Keepall Bandouliere 50 bags, valued at $4,000 and $4,800 respectively. Kelce was also gifted an $11,100 Louis Vuitton rolling truck and a $1,130 toiletry bag, ensuring his travels are both practical and stylish. In addition, Swift bought him a $2,060 cashmere cardigan, a $1,450 silk and cashmere turtleneck, and a $560 beanie to keep him warm during the colder months of the season.
To top off her spending spree, Swift added two Hermes jackets to the mix: a $5,050 rib-trim capsule jacket and a $5,850 hooded auto coat. The insider mentioned that Swift’s thoughtful gifts were intended to wish Kelce “a very good season.”
Kelce was reportedly surprised and touched by the gesture, particularly the cashmere cardigan that Swift had picked up after hearing him talk about it during a trip to Paris. “He’s all set with all those items… he likes to bring tons of stuff with him when he travels with the team or for events with Taylor,” the source added.
This grand display of affection came on the heels of an internet hoax that suggested Kelce and Swift’s relationship was a publicity stunt. The fake contract, which went viral earlier in the week, claimed the couple was set to announce their split on September 28. It included a detailed, fabricated plan for the breakup and even outlined a timeline for media statements. Kelce’s team has since called in lawyers to address the situation, dismissing the rumors as entirely false.
Despite the drama, Kelce and the Chiefs are focused on the season ahead, aiming for a third consecutive Super Bowl victory. Swift, who has been a frequent attendee at Kansas City games since their romance blossomed last year, is expected to continue supporting Kelce throughout the season.
After the Chiefs’ victory over the Ravens, Kelce and Swift were seen leaving the stadium hand-in-hand before flying to New York City. Their celebration continued on Friday night at the iconic Brooklyn pizza restaurant Lucali, where the couple enjoyed a cozy dinner.
The following day, they were spotted attending model Karen Elson’s wedding at Electric Lady Studios, where Swift dazzled in a white dress, and Kelce looked sharp in an all-black ensemble.
