Taylor Swift has spent much of her Fall traveling to watch her boyfriend, All-Pro Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, play in NFL games around the country. But, this weekend, the opposite will be true, as Kelce is expected to fly to Argentina as Swift resumes her Eras Tour in Buenos Aires.
Travis Kelce will be visiting Taylor Swift in Argentina this week, Page Six can exclusively confirm.
A source tells us exclusively that the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, will definitely be traveling to see the pop star, 33, in the South American country, but he will make sure to return in time for his NFL duties.
“He has to be back on Sunday for practice on Monday,” the insider explains.
The Chiefs, who sit at 7-2 and are atop the AFC standings, are on bye this week after being the Miami Dolphins, 21-14, in Frankfurt, Germany. That lined up perfectly with the start of the South American leg of the Eras Tour. Swift’s tour smashed records all summer long in the United States, with tickets on the secondary market being around $1000 at most spots for the cheapest tickets to her multiple concerts in each city. It was as big of a cultural phenomenon as any tour in recent decades.
Rumors were swirling of a potential romance between Swift and Kelce in early September, and they were confirmed when Swift showed up at the Chiefs’ home game against the Chicago Bears in week 3. Since, she has been to three more Chiefs’ games, with Kansas City going 4-0 in all the games she’s attended this year.
Love them or hate them, the couple has become the biggest pop culture story of the year, and when Swift shows up to watch Kelce play, big ratings follow.
The 33-year-old will play three shows at Estadio River Plate Stadium, with Sabrina Carpenter opening. The cheapest tickets on the secondary market are going for around $1000, a wild sum when you consider that is more than the average monthly salary in the country.
