As Taylor Swift and her beau Travis Kelce approach their first anniversary, let’s take a numerical look back at their whirlwind romance.
The dynamic duo first sparked romance rumors in the summer of 2023, following Travis’ public declaration of interest in Swift during his and brother Jason Kelce‘s “New Heights” podcast. Their relationship was officially confirmed in September 2023 when Swift attended her first Kansas City Chiefs game, cheering on her man from the stands.
Swift’s presence at Arrowhead Stadium had a noticeable impact on the NFL’s viewership, with an increase of 7% as her dedicated fans, affectionately known as Swifties, tuned in to catch a glimpse of the singer. This phenomenon even extended to an increase in sales of Travis’ jersey.
Throughout the 2023-2024 football season, Swift showcased her dedication by attending an impressive 13 Chiefs games. She was there for home games and traveled to away games in cities such as New York, Green Bay, Foxborough, and Buffalo. Her presence extended to the playoffs, where she supported the team from the stands.
While Swift was busy showing her support, Travis’ performance on the field thrived. During the games Swift attended, he scored 5 touchdowns and made 89 catches for a total of 1,039 yards.
But the support went both ways, as Travis returned the favor by attending six of Swift’s Eras Tour shows around the globe. In addition to the local Kansas City show, he joined her in Buenos Aires, Sydney, Singapore, Paris, and London, proving his dedication to being there for her biggest moments.
At Swift’s Argentina show in November 2023, she playfully changed the lyrics of her song “Karma,” swapping “the guy on the screen,” which was believed to reference her ex Joe Alwyn, to “the guy on the Chiefs.” Fast forward to seven months later, and Travis surprised fans at Wembley Stadium by joining Swift on stage during her Tortured Poets Department set, showcasing his dance moves.
Speaking of the Tortured Poets Department, Swift’s album release in April sparked speculation. While many expected songs about her breakups with Alwyn and Matty Healy, she also included tracks rumored to be about Travis, such as “The Alchemy” and “So High School.”
As Swift and Travis traversed the globe to support each other’s careers, they accumulated an estimated 247,523 frequent flyer miles. Their dedication to each other has also paid off financially.
Swift’s Eras Tour and the subsequent concert movie have contributed to her impressive estimated net worth of $1.3 billion. Meanwhile, during the off-season, Travis secured a $34.2 million two-year contract extension with the Chiefs, allowing him to lavish Swift with gifts totaling an estimated $91,772.
