Travis Kelce continues to prove that he is Taylor Swift’s biggest fan, showing once again just how much he supports his superstar girlfriend. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end recently showed his affection in the most adorable way by “liking” a throwback video of a young Taylor Swift performing “Big Deal” by LeAnn Rimes at just 11 years old.
In the clip, which was shared by a fan account, a fearless and talented Swift worked the stage with poise, telling the host that she was destined to be a country singer. The video captured the early spark of what would become a phenomenal career, and Kelce couldn’t help but appreciate the adorable moment.
Fans took notice of Kelce’s gesture, and they couldn’t stop gushing over his sweet support for Swift’s early singing days. One fan playfully commented, “Travis liking this is my Roman empire,” expressing just how iconic Kelce’s gesture was to them. Another excited user wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “His fyp is just football and Taylor Swift, huh? Lol.” Meanwhile, another fan added, “She’s incredible! 11 years old??? Of course he ‘liked’ it! Smart man.”
Kelce’s support for Swift is certainly nothing new. He has been her biggest cheerleader throughout their relationship, and there is no shortage of examples. Just last week, Kelce gave a special shout-out to “Tay”—as he affectionately calls her—for “powering through” the torrential rain during her Eras Tour performances at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. Kelce praised her dedication and resilience, showing once again just how proud he is of her.
Kelce has also been vocal about cheering Swift on during major milestones in her career.
Ahead of the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, where Swift was nominated for an impressive 12 awards, Kelce expressed his excitement on his “New Heights” podcast in September, saying, “She’s nominated for about 10 of those things tonight. Hopefully, she can walk away with some Moonmen.”
Sure enough, Swift won multiple awards that night, including video of the year, and she gave Kelce a sweet shout-out during her acceptance speech for “cheering from across the studio” while she filmed the “Fortnight” music video.
Kelce’s support has even extended beyond the big moments to the smaller, more intimate ones. Just two months ago, the NFL star encouraged fans to cheer for Swift as she exited the stage after her final Eras Tour show in Amsterdam.
His constant support has not gone unnoticed by Swift’s fans, who have praised the way he’s embraced her career and shown up for her.
On Wednesday, Kelce addressed rumors about his relationship with Swift, confirming that they are “absolutely happy” despite false reports suggesting a “breakup plan.” Sources close to the couple have also shared that they are stronger than ever and may even be heading toward an engagement. “She feels safer with him than anyone she’s ever known; she knows he would do anything for her and physically she feels protected by him, and she loves that feeling,” an insider revealed about their dynamic.
In fact, it appears that Kelce is already taking steps toward a future with Swift. Reports suggest that he has asked Taylor’s father, Scott Swift, for her hand in marriage, and Scott “wholeheartedly” gave his blessing.
The two have been dating since the summer of 2023 and went public with their romance that September, when Swift made a surprise appearance at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, for the Chiefs’ game against the Chicago Bears.
Since then, they have not been shy about showing their love, frequently packing on the PDA during dates and public outings.
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have become one of pop culture’s favorite couples, and their mutual support for each other only makes them more endearing to fans.
Whether it’s liking an adorable throwback video or cheering her on from the sidelines, Kelce’s devotion to Swift is clear—and it’s one of the many reasons why their relationship continues to capture hearts everywhere.
