Taylor Swift has no plans to stop attending boyfriend Travis Kelce’s football games because she thinks his impressive performance on the field is ‘beyond sexy’ – and loves that she is getting the chance to bond with his family and friends on the sidelines, an insider has shared.
Sunday night saw the Kansas City Chiefs bag their fourth consecutive victory, with Taylor once more in the crowd cheering along with Travis’ friends and family. And now, a source close to the pop superstar, 33, has revealed that she loves going to the games because she finds it ‘beyond sexy’ watching her new man, 34, in action. ‘Taylor loves going to his games. She really enjoys them, and she thinks it is beyond sexy that he does what he does,’ an insider told DailyMail.com.
‘This is such new territory for her. She wants to support her boyfriend and she does.’ The singer is also said to be enjoying her developing bond with Travis’ mom, Donna, with the pair growing ‘closer’ at every game. ‘They have a real special connection and Travis loves this,’ the source explained.
And it appears Travis’ teammates also approve of Taylor’s presence on gameday – with the NFL stars joking that she has become their ‘unofficial mascot’. The insider continued: ‘Since Taylor has been coming to the games the Chiefs have won the past four consecutive games and Travis is telling Taylor that she is his lucky charm. ‘She literally brings light into the stadium with her. His teammates have joked that she is their unofficial mascot.’
They continued: ‘She has such a massive following that since he started seeing her, all the team’s social media accounts have exploded… People are buying Chiefs tickets in the hopes of seeing Taylor and she knows this.’ The hysteria surrounding the new couple has seen viewing figures and a demand for tickets surge.
An average of 27 million viewers tuned in to NBC and Peacock to watch the Chiefs hold on for a nail-biting victory against the Jets earlier this month when Taylor was joined by celebrity pals Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and more in her suite at MetLife, according to release from the network.
The figure is 2.68 million more than the 24.32 million who watched her cheer on Travis and the Chiefs for the first time against the Bears on September 24. Sales of Travis’ No 87 jersey for the Chiefs also saw a massive 400 per cent spike in sales. Their relationship certainly seems to be going from strength to strength, with the lovebirds pictured celebrating the Chiefs’ win with a private, catered party at the tight end’s mansion this weekend.
They arrived in his Rolls Royce, which was driven by his friend, with Taylor’s security entourage following closely behind. Taylor had earlier enjoyed lunch at the property and even posed for a snap alongside NFL legend Bernie Kosar just hours before the game. The singer and the football pro have been flaunting their romance ever since they confirmed that they were dating last month.
And sources previously told DailyMail.com that Swift has been blown away by the way the sports star has ‘courted her’ like a ‘gentleman’. An insider close to Taylor’s celebrity pal Blake Lively revealed that while the songstress was ‘trying to keep it together,’ it was obvious to those around her that she was already ‘falling’ hard for her new beau.
‘Taylor is blown away right now and her family is all about Travis. She is trying to keep it together, but is obviously falling in love with him and he feels the same way,’ they dished. ‘He courted her and it was not her typical, “Hey, you’re hot, let’s go out,” sorta thing. He actually courted her and she feels like she is the luckiest gal in the world right now. ‘It is no coincidence that all she had to do was look outside of Hollywood.’
The insider explained that the singer’s parents were ‘super harsh critics’ when it came to her love life, but even they are believed to be ‘fully supportive’ of the new pairing. ‘All that they ever want is for Taylor to be with someone who keeps her safe and who loves her for her,’ they explained.
‘Travis is a gentleman and, although it is maybe too soon to say, everyone really feels like she has finally met her match.’Â According to the source, his family also ‘adore her’ and all of her friends are ‘legit so happy for her.’Â DailyMail.com has contacted Taylor and Travis’s representatives for comment.
