Kelce officially entered his Swiftie era when he attended the second of the "Anti-Hero" singer's two performances on his home turf.

Before the concert, held at Arrowhead Stadium, Kelce was seen chatting with other Swifties and even trading friendship bracelets, according to a video posted on X (formerly Twitter).

Speaking on his podcast, "New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce," the athlete said he was "butt hurt" he couldn't give Swift a friendship bracelet (a tradition among Swifts' concertgoers) that included his phone number.

"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings," Kelce told his brother and cohost, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce.

Jason then asked which number he put on the bracelet — the number on his Kansas City Chiefs jersey (87) or his phone number. 

"You know which one," Travis responded. He also quipped that while Swift "doesn't meet anybody" before her shows, he "took it personal."

In an interview with Time magazine, Swift confirmed her relationship with Kelce and offered details about the beginning of their romance. 

"This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell," she said. "We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I'm grateful for, because we got to get to know each other."

Two months after his podcast episode, Kelce told ESPN's Pat McAfee that after trying to woo the Grammy winner with a friendship bracelet, he extended an invite to one of his upcoming games.

"I told her, 'I've seen you rock the stage at Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock the stage at Arrowhead and see which one's a little more lit,'" Kelce said in the interview.

 "So we'll see what happens in the near future," he added.

Swift sent the internet into meltdown when she accepted to Kelce's invitation. However, according to Swift, the lovebirds were already official by the time she attended her first game on September 24.

"By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple," she told Time. "I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date."

On that fated day, Swift was photographed wearing Kansas City colors as she watched the game from Kelce's private suite, alongside his mom, Donna Kelce.

When Kelce — already considered one of the best tight ends in NFL history — hauled in a touchdown pass from Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the third quarter, Swift rose to her feet and cheered.

After chest-bumping with another spectator in the box, the singer appeared to shout, "Let's fucking go!" as Mama Kelce smiled and applauded.

After the game, images of Kelce and Swift walking out of the stadium together and driving off in his old school convertible were shared on X.

The pair ended their night at Prime Social Rooftop, which Kelce rented out for Swift, his family, and his teammates, per Entertainment Tonight. In photos obtained by TMZ, the couple weren't shy about showing their affection for each other as Swift was seen wrapping her arm around Kelce's neck as they chatted to other partygoers.

In the days following, an anonymous source told People that Kelce and Swift had been "hanging out" and were still in the "super, super early days" of getting to know each other. 

"They're having fun," the source told the outlet. "This was Taylor's first time meeting his mom and dad, and everyone was enjoying themselves."

Meanwhile, Kelce debriefed the Swift-inspired frenzy on his podcast. He thanked her for "pulling up" to his game, saying he "sure as hell enjoyed this weekend."

During an episode of "New Heights," Kelce joked that his personal life is "not so personal" anymore.

"Shout out to Taylor for pulling up," he said. "That was pretty ballsy."

Kelce went on to praise Swift for her behavior with his family at her first Chiefs game.

"I just thought it was awesome how everyone in the suite had nothing but great things to say about her. The friends and family," he said. "She looked amazing, everybody was talking about her in great light. And on top of that the day went perfect for Chiefs fans, of course."

"To see the slow motion chest bumps, to see the high fives with mom," he continued. "To see how Chiefs kingdom was all excited that she was there, that shit was absolutely hysterical and it was definitely a game I'll remember that's for damn sure. And then we just slid off in the getaway car at the end."

During the Chiefs game against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in New York, Swift supported Kelce again and brought along some A-list pals.

Swift was spotted watching the game alongside Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sabrina Carpenter, Hugh Jackman, Sophie Turner, and Antoni Porowski. 

While Swift and Kelce left the stadium separately, it seems they had spent some time together beforehand; the Super Bowl champion was spotted by Page Six leaving Swift's New York apartment that morning.

Kelce said the NFL had gone overboard in their coverage of Swift during an episode of his podcast, released on October 4. 

"I think it's fun when they show who all is at the game. I think it brings a little more to the atmosphere, brings a little bit more to what you're watching," Kelce said.

"But at the same time, I think they're overdoing it a little bit," he continued.

NBC Sports, which aired the game, made frequent cuts to shots of Swift cheering on the Chiefs. The NFL also briefly changed bios on Instagram and X to reference Swift after the Chiefs beat the Jets.

In response, the NFL defended its coverage of the pair in a statement obtained by ESPN. 

According to multiple outlets, the "Fearless" singer spent a few days with Kelce following his 34th birthday.

Us Weekly, Page Six, and the Daily Mail reported that Swift flew from her home in Nashville, Tennessee to Kansas City, Missouri the day after his birthday.

The two were not seen out together, and an anonymous source told Us Weekly that the pair chose to have a "chill night" together. It's unknown when Swift left, but she was not present at the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Minnesota Vikings the following Sunday.

The "Cruel Summer" singer returned to the Arrowhead Stadium to cheer on Kelce as his team took on the Denver Broncos.

In a video shared by People, Swift was seen wearing a Chiefs-branded jacket for the game, where she caught up with Kelce's parents in the family suite. She was also seen speaking with Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Kelce's teammate and close friend, Patrick Mahomes.

Photos published by Mail Online showed what appeared to be Swift's security team outside Kelce's home until Friday afternoon, suggesting that the pop star had stayed the night.

Kelce's mother later discussed the "whirlwind" caused by Swift's game-day appearances.

"I thought it would be over at that point, but it seems to just continue, and every week just seems to trump the week before," Donna said during an episode of the "Got It From My Momma" podcast. "So it's really kind of wild, a wild ride." 

Swift and Kelce were photographed holding hands after enjoying a date night in New York City.

The outing marked the first time the two have been photographed by paparazzi in public together, and many took it as confirmation of their relationship.

Their first public display of affection came after the pair dined at celebrity hot spot Nobu, per photos and video obtained by TMZ and Page Six. 

Swift and Kelce later went to Rockefeller Center, where they made separate surprise appearances on NBC's "Saturday Night Live." They finished the night at the show's after-party, pictures from Getty Images showed.

Swift and Kelce were photographed by paparazzi after spending Sunday night at Waverly Inn. 

Swift has dined at the West Village hot spot before, most notably in 2016 with Cara Delevingne, Lorde, and Jack Antonoff.

Just a few days before the release of "1989 (Taylor's Version)," Swift was on hand to support the Kansas City Chiefs as they took on the Los Angeles Chargers.

She was filmed cheering for Kelce, looking concerned when he fell, and performing an elaborate handshake with Brittany Mahomes.

Swift and Kelce were also photographed together at a post-game party, alongside Kelce's teammate Mecole Hardman Jr. and his girlfriend Chariah Gordon.

Gordon shared a series of photos on Instagram, including one of Swift kissing Kelce on the cheek.

After the Chiefs beat the Chargers, Jason opened up to NBC Sports about his brother's new relationship and the frenzy it has caused.

"It's certainly been weird, the level that it is now," he told NBC Sports on Sunday night. "On one hand, I'm happy for my brother that he seems to be in a relationship that he's excited about, that he is genuine about. But there's another end of it where it's like, 'Man, this is a lot.'"

"This is another level of stardom that typically football players don't deal with," he added.

In an interview with People, Ed Kelce described Swift as "a very, very sweet, very charming, down-to-earth young woman."

The athlete's father also praised her first impression as "very genuine," presumably referring to the Chiefs game on October 12, when Swift and Ed were seen chatting in the stands.

"I'll tell you something very special that I noticed about Taylor the first time I met her," Ed shared. "We're sitting in the suite, she gets up and in the front room, she gets up to go get a drink or something and she starts picking up empty bottles, cans, plates that are scattered around. Because in the suites everybody gets stuff and you empty it down wherever you can."

"And I'm just thinking, I don't think she got the diva memo. She didn't get the spoiled musician," he continued. "She doesn't know how to pull that off. And that really to me said a whole lot."

At a press conference in Frankfurt, Germany, where the Kansas City Chiefs would soon play the Miami Dolphins, Kelce fielded a direct question about his feelings for Swift.

According to ESPN's NFL reporter Jeff Darlington, the reporter asked, "What is the latest status and are you in love?"

"I got to see her last week. That's the latest status right there," Kelce said of their current status, though he added, "I'm going to keep my personal relationship personal."

A video of the exchange shows that Kelce was grinning as he replied.

During a recent episode of his podcast, Kelce also said it was "cool" to see people dress up as him and Swift for Halloween, though his brother thought it was "pretty creepy."

Swift and Kelce were spotted at a restaurant in the Argentine capital after Swift postponed her second scheduled show in Buenos Aires due to "truly chaotic" weather in the city, she wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

According to People, the couple appeared to be joined by Swift's dad, Scott Swift, as they dined in a private room at Elena restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel Buenos Aires.

Swift made a small but significant change to "Karma" during her second show in Buenos Aires as Kelce watched from the VIP tent, alongside the pop star's father, Scott Swift.

"Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me," Swift sang with a giggle, per multiple videos captured by fans at the Estadio River Plate concert.

TikTok user @flormosso caught Kelce's reaction to the moment, when the crowd erupted into cheers. The two-time Super Bowl champ covered a huge grin with his hands while Scott patted him on the shoulder.

Kelce later said he "had a little bit of a clue" that Swift was preparing something special for the show, but once he heard the lyric change, it "still shocked me."

"I was like, 'Oh, she really just said that,'" he said on his podcast.

When her second concert in Buenos Aires ended, Swift left the stage and ran into Kelce's arms as he waited for her by an exit.

The couple shared their first public kiss as fans cheered.

In a cover story for WSJ. Magazine, the NFL player said he was a Swiftie before he began dating the pop star.

He praised her songwriting, especially her song "Blank Space," and even described Swift as "a genius."

"I've never been a man of words," Kelce said. "Being around her, seeing how smart Taylor is, has been fucking mind-blowing. I'm learning every day."

He also said he's been hesitant to discuss their relationship in public because he doesn't want to spook her.

"That was the biggest thing to me: make sure I don't say anything that would push Taylor away," he said.

"Obviously I've never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them… I've never dealt with it," Kelce added. "But at the same time, I'm not running away from any of it."

Once again, Swift was photographed cheering for Kelce in a private suite with Brittany Mahomes. (Unfortunately, the team lost to the Green Bay Packers 27-19.)

"They're both really hard workers, and he acknowledges her art is hers, and he has what's his," an anonymous source told People. "He understands the territory their relationship comes with and like he said, isn't letting any of the hoopla impact how they're growing together."

Swift opened up about Kelce in a cover story for Time magazine, which named her Person of the Year for 2023.

She said she enjoys attending NFL games "to support Travis" and praised him for openly courting her on his podcast.

Although Swift has a complicated history with dating in the public eye — and has kept previous relationships extremely private — she said there's nothing to hide when it comes to Kelce.

"When you say a relationship is public, that means I'm going to see him do what he loves, we're showing up for each other, other people are there and we don't care," Swift told Time. "The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you're seeing someone. And we're just proud of each other."

During a Chiefs press conference, Kelce fielded questions about navigating his relationship amid his growing fame.

"As long as we're happy, we can't listen to anything that's outside noise," Kelce said. "That's all that matters."

Kelce added that he'd be "silly" to deny Swift's role in his growing fan base, but his priority is still his job.

"I brought this upon myself, and I do enjoy having fun with it all, and the biggest thing is making sure my focus is right here in this building," Kelce told reporters.

For her 12th NFL appearance, Swift watched the Chiefs beat the Baltimore Ravens to secure their spot in Super Bowl LVIII.

After the game, she joined Kelce and his family on the field to celebrate. The couple shared several hugs and kisses in front of the crowd.

At the 2024 Super Bowl, Kelce and the Chiefs became NFL champions for the second year in a row. Swift had flown from Tokyo to watch the game and could be seen celebrating the historic win in a VIP box, flanked by friends and members of Kelce's family.

Later, she joined Kelce on the field, where the couple shared several intimate hugs and kisses.

Swift and Kelce were spotted in the crowd at Coachella watching pals Ice Spice and Bleachers perform. 

Several videos showing the couple dancing and kissing at the music festival circulated on social media. Swift also wore a "New Heights" hat to support Kelce's podcast.

Kelce later said that he prefers to watch concerts "from the fans' perspective."

"I'm a fan of the music. I'm a fan of live shows," Kelce said on his podcast. "I want to see it from the front of the stage. Yeah, we probably could've finessed it that way [watching backstage], but I think it's just that much more of an experience if you're in the pit, man. If you're in the madness with all the fans. It was awesome though."

Swift's 31-track double album "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology" contains two songs that may nod to Kelce.

The first is "The Alchemy," which doubles as a love song and an ode to Swift's enduring career. The lyrics feature several sport-related metaphors like "Call the amateurs and cut 'em from the team" and "Where's the trophy? He just comes running over to me."

According to the liner notes, "The Alchemy" was copyrighted in 2023, so it's unclear how deeply tied to Kelce it can be. (Swift's albums are typically finished several months ahead of their release date, ensuring vinyl factories have enough time to fulfill preorders.)

However, "So High School," which also seemingly references Kelce, was released in the album's deluxe half, meaning it wasn't included with physical copies of the album. A song can be made available to stream almost immediately after completion, so it's possible the song was written more recently.

"So High School" is perhaps the only straightforward love song on "Poets," depicting a relationship that transports Swift back to her "You Belong With Me" days — the giddy rush of young love and lust.

The track appears to include direct references to Kelce, including, "You know how to ball, I know Aristotle," "You knew what you wanted and, boy, you got her," and, "Are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me?"

Back in 2016, Kelce played a game of "Kiss, Marry, Kill" with AfterBuzz TV, in which he chose to kiss Swift.

Kelce brought Swift as his date to the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation Golf Classic gala in Las Vegas.

In a highlights reel shared by Kelce's teammate, the couple can be seen walking into the event holding hands.

Other clips shared by fans at the event show Kelce and Swift cuddling and kissing at their table. At one point, Kelce made a speech and referred to Swift as his "significant other." For a surprise auction item, they sold four tickets to The Eras Tour for $80,000.

When Swift returned to the stage for the European leg of The Eras Tour, she had adjusted the set list to perform songs from "The Tortured Poets Department." The new segment includes "So High School," possibly as a nod to her current relationship.

Swift's fourth and final performance in France also happened to be the tour's 87th show. Kelce, who wears No. 87 for the Chiefs, was in the audience. He was spotted dancing with Swift's close friend, Gigi Hadid, and filming Swift on his iPhone.

"Can you believe it's our 87th show tonight?" Swift asked the audience during her acoustic set, just before playing "The Alchemy" and "Begin Again" as the evening's surprise songs.

During the concert's "1989" segment, Swift also debuted a new outfit: a glittering yellow top with a red ombré skirt. Fans interpreted this as a nod to Kelce and the Chiefs, whose colors are yellow and red. (Kelce previously said his favorite song of Swift's is "Blank Space" from "1989").

Finally, to close the evening, Swift tweaked the lyrics of "Karma" to salute "the guy on the Chiefs" for the second time.

During Swift's third and final performance in London, Kelce made a surprise appearance during her onstage costume change for "The Tortured Poets Department."

This scene depicts Swift getting shot and killed at the end of "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived." Then, she's picked up and revived by a set of dancers dressed as ringmasters. These characters force Swift to strip down, put on heels, and keep performing through the pain — a segue into her meta bop "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart."

Kelce joined the skit as another ringmaster. He picked up Swift's body from the stage, carried her to the fainting couch, and mimed applying powder to her face with a makeup brush. 

Kelce is now cemented in Swiftian history as the first boyfriend to join Swift onstage during one of her concerts.

In episode three, Harry Jowsey goes on a date with "Love is Blind" season 6 star Jessica Vestal and immediately falls for her. He couples up with her later that episode and they stick together until episode six, despite facing criticism from the other contestants.

But they break up in the season finale after Harry is caught in a cheating scandal. In episode eight, Melinda Berry accuses Harry of kissing her off-camera, leading to an argument between Melinda, Harry, and Jessica.

Jessica doesn't know what to believe, so she breaks up with him and leaves the competition. A post-credit scene in the finale showed that Harry and Jessica dated again a month after filming the series, but they broke up again.

In the new clip shared on Netflix's social media, Harry said he still has an "amazing" relationship with Jessica, but she said their relationship is "nonexistent."

"There's no bad blood," Jessica said. "We haven't kept in contact."

Both stars told Entertainment Tonight in June that they are single now.

In the fall of 2023, "Dancing With The Stars" fans began speculating that Harry was dating Rylee Arnold, his dancing partner for season 32.

In April, Harry said on his podcast, "Boyfriend Material with Harry Jowsey," that the rumors harmed an undisclosed relationship he had at the time.

"I was actually in a secret relationship at the start of 'Dancing With the Stars,' and all those edits brought me and my girlfriend at the time apart," Harry said, referring to TikTok videos that spread the dating rumors between him and Rylee.

Harry said he loved the ex-girlfriend, who he didn't name in the podcast episode. Harry added that after they broke up, he "spiraled so fucking hard" that he almost proposed to another woman before they went on a first date. He said this woman ghosted him.

As for Jessica, she said she wasn't in a relationship in a TikTok post shared in March.

She also shared a video earlier this month where she called Harry the "largest red flag."

"Love Is Blind" alum Izzy Zapata was among the first contestants to enter the house in season two but was forced to exit for the first time in episode two after Tolú matches with Dom Gabriel over him. Izzy returns in episode eight for the girls' day out and matches with Micah.

But in the season finale, Izzy goes on a date with Jessica.

Izzy wants more than friendship, but Jessica is still reeling from her relationship with Harry. They initially couple up in a friendship match but decide to leave the competition the next morning.

Izzy seems to have moved on.

In October 2023, Izzy revealed he was dating someone new during the reunion episode for "Love Is Blind" season five. Today reported in October that Izzy shared a picture of his new girlfriend, Shelby Webb, on Instagram but later deleted it. This was likely filmed after "Perfect Match" was filmed.

In episode five, Tolú pairs up with Chris after he reveals his crush on her.

Their relationship slowly progresses over the season, even after a few arguments over Chris' loyalty.

At the end of the season, they are still together and say in the finale that they want to continue their relationship despite living in different states.

Chris and Tolu said in the new social media clip that their relationship fell apart after filming.

Tolú told Entertainment Tonight in June that she's single.

Elys, the winner of "Too Hot To Handle" season five, initially dates Harry on "Perfect Match." But he dumps her for Jessica in episode three.

After the rejection, she stays in the villa by pairing up with her friend, Chris, before finding romance with Justin Assada, a contestant from "Surviving Paradise."

Unfortunately, Justin and Elys do not make it to the end. In episode nine, Elys abruptly dumps Justin for "Squid Game: The Challenge" season one contestant Bryton.

Justin immediately leaves the house and doesn't show up at the final reunion to vote for a winner.

There is no information online about Justin's current relationship status.

Elys and Bryton are among the first contestants to enter the "Perfect Match" house, but they don't start talking until episode eight, when Bryton returns for the girls' party.

In the episode, Bryton chats to Elys and Micah and seeds conflict in their relationships so he can worm his way back into the "Perfect Match" house. He succeeds, and Elys asks to couple up with him in episode nine.

At the end of the season finale, Bryton and Elys are still together, and they say they are their perfect match. But they are no longer together.

In the new social media clip, Bryton said the relationship got "rocky" after the show because he "started to see a personality that I didn't get to see on screen." Elys said Bryton ghosted her.

Bryton appears to be dating Jade Gentile, a WWE wrestler whose ring name is Jazmyn Nyx. Since January, the pair have posted pictures of their dates on their Instagrams.

Elys appears to be dating "Too Hot To Handle" season three star Nathan Soan Mngomezulu.

Since October 2023, Elys and Nathan have posted videos on TikTok about their relationship.

In episode three, Stevan is sent on a date with Alara. They immediately click and match up together in the next episode, becoming the strongest couple in the series.

In the season finale, they have a brief fight after Stevan acts too keen to participate in a kissing game. But they make up and end the series together.

Unfortunately, the popular couple broke up after the series.

Alara said in the social media clip that Stevan ghosted her after they went on vacation. Stevan blamed the relationship ending on geographical distance.

"I honestly just didn't have time to carry on a relationship, let alone one that was overseas," Stevan said. "I was going to bed. She would wake up. It is what it is."

Stevan told Entertainment Tonight in June that he is in a relationship.

Meanwhile, TikTok posts show Alara is living with Micah in LA.

"Love Is Blind" alum Micah first pairs up with Kaz during a partner swap in episode two with Stevan and Xanthi Perdikomatis.

The couple starts strong, but cracks appear in episodes six to nine. Kaz keeps flirting with other contestants, making Micah doubt their relationship and causing fights.

In episode nine, Kaz gets angry after another contestant tells him Micah thinks they're the weakest couple. Kaz flirts with three other contestants and then kisses Holly Scarfone in front of Micah during a drinking game.

After this, Micah and Kaz have an argument and decide to break up. Kaz pairs up with Christine from "Too Hot To Handle" season five, and Micah pairs up with Izzy.

But in the season finale, Kaz has second thoughts about the relationship and rekindles the relationship with Micah.

They are still together at the end, but they have broken up since then.

In the social media clip, Kaz said his relationship with Micah was "nonexistent," while Micah said it was a short-lived "roller coaster," just like in the show.

In September 2023, Micah also posted a video on TikTok of a man she seemed to be dating.

Micah has posted other TikToks about going on dates, suggesting she is single.

Kaz told Entertainment Tonight in June that he's in a relationship with someone outside Netflix's reality show universe.

Christine joins the series in episode eight as one of the bombshells at the boy's day out. She immediately tries to win over Kaz, and she temporarily succeeds when Kaz picks her up in episode nine.

When Christine is sent on a date with Nigel, another "Too Hot To Handle" contestant, Kaz has second thoughts and speaks to his ex. This angers Christine, and the pair fight when she returns to the house.

Christine then matches with Nigel, who she has simple chemistry with. Though they are the newest couple, they are voted the winners of "Perfect Match" in the season two finale.

The finale shows that the pair on the vacation Netflix sends the winners on. But they are no longer together.

In the social media clip, Christine said she blocked him, and he only cared about how he looked on camera.

Nigel said: "She basically broke my trust with her, and it was so hard to get back with her. We tried to work on it, but I forgive but I can never forget. So we just called him off."

Melinda Berry, who previously appeared in "Too Hot To Handle" and hosted "Dated & Related," joins "Perfect Match" in episode six.

Melinda is not successful at convincing Chris to couple up with her and is sent out of the "Perfect Match" house on the same night she arrives. Melinda returns in episode eight, where she seems to flirt with Harry, but they never date for real.

Since then, Melinda seems to have started a new relationship with Christian Birkenberger of "Big Brother" season 23. Melinda appeared to befriend Christian after she appeared in the music video for his song "For You" in 2022.

Christian has said that Melinda is his girlfriend in multiple videos on TikTok in recent months.

"Too Hot To Handle" alum Holly is unable to find a match on "Perfect Match" despite flirting with Kaz.

However, she seems to have found a new relationship after the show.

In December 2023, Holly spoke briefly about her current relationship on Dom Gabriel's podcast "Dom Meets World."

Though she didn't name the man, it doesn't appear to be Kaz.

"I met him out in London like a year ago and he was trying to get to me for so long. It wasn't until recently that I gave him a shot," Holly said. "I just came to a point, I was like, 'You know what? I'm going to give him a shot. I'm going to try something new.'"

Though Kaz is from London, it seems like they met for the first time on the show, which wouldn't fit Holly's description.
