Taylor Swift is "proud" of the fact that her boyfriend Travis Kelce is incredibly open and gushing about their relationship, as well as the fact that he has thrown subtle shade at her extremely private ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn, a new report claimed.
“Travis keeps proving that he’s Taylor’s guy through and through. He not only fans out over her music, which her followers simply adore about him, but he’s standing up for his lady by throwing some shade at her ex, Joe Alwyn, by saying he would never hide their romance,” an unnamed source told Life & Style Magazine.
During the episode of the podcast titled "Bussin' With the Boys" that aired on Monday, June 24, Travis, who is 34 years old, provided an explanation as to why he is not bashful about flaunting their relationship.
“It’s like, you want to keep things private, but at the same time, I’m not here to hide anything. Like, that’s my girl. That’s my lady. I’m proud of that. I’m not sitting here trying to juggle, ‘How can I keep this under wraps?’ You just don’t want to let everybody into your personal life and be able to comment on it knowing that everything she does is getting a headline,” the Kansas City Chiefs star told host Will Compton.
The current relationship between Taylor, who is 34 years old, and Travis is a far cry from her previous six-year relationship with Joe, who is 33 years old, Daily Mail reported. During that time, the two were only photographed together a few times, and the English actor never mentioned her in public.
“Travis didn’t understand why Taylor and Joe were so secretive, but now he realizes that it was Joe who wanted to protect his privacy at all costs. Travis is the complete opposite. He’s pretty much shouting his love for Taylor from every rooftop he can find,” the informant stated.
“The winner in all of this is Taylor of course, she loves that her guy is proud of what they have and that he isn’t afraid to show it. She’s never been happier in all her life,” it went on.
After receiving the title of Person of the Year from TIME on December 6, 2023, the singer of "Anti-Hero" expressed her elation at the prospect of being in a relationship that was open to the public.
Taylor said that their relationship started immediately after Travis expressed his regret on his "New Heights" podcast in July 2023 about the fact that he attempted to offer her a friendship bracelet that had his phone number during the singer's “Eras” tour stop in Kansas City, Missouri, but he was unsuccessful in his attempt.
“This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell. We started hanging out right after that. So, we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to know each other,” Taylor explained.
During her first Chiefs game, which took place on September 24, 2023, the original resident of Pennsylvania disclosed that she and her boyfriend were "already a couple."
“When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him do what he loves. We’re showing up for each other. Other people are there and we don’t care,” Taylor said.
When Taylor expressed how happy she was with Travis, it appeared as though she was making a subtle reference to her relationship with Joe.
“The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone. And [Travis and I are] just proud of each other,” Taylor divulged.
The “All Too Well” hitmaker also pointed at the exact time frame of when she was with Joe when she said, “Life is short. Have adventures. Me locking myself away in a house for a lot of years, I’ll never get that time back. I’m more trusting now than I was six years ago.”
In spite of the fact that Joe was dating Taylor during her world tour for Reputation in 2018, he was never visible. As of right now, Travis has traveled to a variety of locations across the world in order to watch "Eras" tour performances, TODAY.com reported. These performances have included trips in Buenos Aires, Argentina; Sydney, Australia; Singapore; Paris, France; and her three appearances at London's Wembley Stadium from June 21 through June 23.
At the final show, the three-time Super Bowl champion joined his lady on stage wearing a top hat and tails for the interlude between "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived" and "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart," which caused the audience to go absolutely wild.
