Travis Kelce is leveling up his living situation big time — and part of the reason has to do with Taylor Swift … TMZ has learned.
Sources familiar with the situation tell us the Chiefs tight end just bought a new home in Kansas City, with the sale closing Tuesday. We’re told he snapped it up for just under $6 million …
Our sources say this pad is in a gated community, and it’s a straight-up mansion … 6 bedrooms, 6 baths and over 16,000 square feet of living space!!!
According to TMZ, Kelce was bothered by all the attention he was getting in his old neighborhood and ensured he got more privacy at his new place.
Our sources say there were a few things nagging him, including needing more privacy.
We’re told at Travis’s old house, it was simply far too accessible, and was starting to become a tourist attraction … with people swinging by and staking out the place — Travis was getting uncomfortable with the situation.
That actually proved to be an issue as recently as this past weekend … when TayTay came to visit Trav in Kansas City, only to have paparazzi park outside waiting for any shots of the couple.
Kelce has spoken in the past about wanting to keep his relationship with Swift private.
“I think what’s real is, this is my personal life, “And I want to respect both of our lives. She’s not in the media as much as I am, doing this show every single week.”
“I’m enjoying life, and I sure as hell enjoyed this week, “So everything moving forward… I think talking about sports will have to be kind of where I keep it.”
