Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made it a priority to be together this Thanksgiving, marking a significant milestone in their relationship. A source exclusively told Page Six that spending the holiday together was “really important” for the couple, especially since it was something they hadn’t been able to do in the past.
“It was really important to Taylor and Travis to spend Thanksgiving together this year since they’ve never been able to before,” the insider explained to Page Six.
Last year, work obligations kept the pair apart, with Swift on her Eras Tour in South America and Kelce busy with his demanding football schedule as a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs.
This year, however, they were determined to make it work.
The insider revealed that the power couple brought their families together for the holiday, which required a lot of careful planning and coordination. “They knew it would take some coordination, but they’re so grateful they were able to pull it off,” the source said, emphasizing how much this moment meant to them.
Swift and her parents, Andrea and Scott Swift, hosted the Kelce family at her Nashville home for a warm and festive Thanksgiving celebration.
Travis was joined by his parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, as well as his brother, Jason Kelce, Jason’s wife, Kylie, and their three daughters, Wyatt, Elliotte, and Bennett. The gathering marked the first time both families had come together for a major holiday, a significant step for the couple as they continue to grow closer.

The source described the atmosphere as joyful and intimate, with both families enjoying quality time together. It was a chance for the Swifts and Kelces to bond, with laughter, food, and shared stories making it a memorable occasion.
The successful coordination of the event showed how committed Taylor and Travis are to each other, as well as their families, and how they’re willing to make the extra effort to create meaningful experiences together.
The day after Thanksgiving, Taylor and her father, Scott Swift, accompanied Donna Kelce to cheer on Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs as they faced the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Chiefs managed to pull off a hard-fought 19-17 victory, and having Taylor there to support him only added to the celebratory nature of the weekend.
The presence of both Taylor and her father at the game demonstrated just how integrated the couple’s families are becoming, solidifying the connection between them.
The Thanksgiving gathering was somewhat unexpected, considering Donna Kelce’s earlier comments suggesting that Taylor might be too “busy” to join them for the holiday. When asked on the “Today” show whether she expected to see the superstar for Thanksgiving, Donna responded that she “didn’t think so,” citing Taylor’s packed schedule. “She’s kind of busy right now. She still has her tour to do,” Donna said, referring to Taylor’s record-breaking Eras Tour, which concludes on December 8 in Vancouver.
Despite the busy schedules, Taylor and Travis managed to make their first Thanksgiving together a reality, showcasing their dedication to each other.
The couple, who have been dating since the summer of 2023, took this holiday as an opportunity to blend their families and strengthen their bond. With their respective families coming together, it’s clear that their relationship is growing deeper, and they are making the effort to create lasting memories together despite their hectic professional lives.
This Thanksgiving marked not only a joyful holiday but also a meaningful milestone for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. It was a testament to their commitment to each other and the importance they place on family, showing that even amid their demanding careers, they are making the time to prioritize what truly matters.
