Kelce and Swift began sparking dating rumors in September 2023, when the music icon showed up to her first of many Kansas City games. However, Kelce previously said he knew Swift “close to a month” before she attended her first Chiefs game.

Since then, Swift has regularly been spotted at games when Kansas City plays to support Kelce. She was also on the field with Kelce when Kansas City celebrated winning the Super Bowl in February 2024.

Less than two weeks ago, Swift made her first appearance on Kelce's "New Heights" podcast, and the views on the episode skyrocketed.
