Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are deepening their bond as they approach their first year together, according to sources close to the couple speaking exclusively to PEOPLE. Known for their public displays of affection, the pop star and Kansas City Chiefs player are reportedly happier than ever heading into the summer.
“They’re incredibly happy together,” the insider revealed. “Their relationship is very serious, and it feels unique for both of them.”
Their playful dynamic was recently showcased on June 23, when Kelce, 34, joined Swift, 34, on stage during her performance of “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland. Dressed in a top hat and tuxedo, Kelce playfully interacted with Swift and her dancers, highlighting their shared enjoyment.
“They have a lot of fun together, and it just clicks,” the source continued. “Initially, their friends were surprised because they seemed so different, but they share a similar openness and dedication in everything they do, whether it’s their careers, family, or friendships.”
Swift remains focused on her ongoing Eras Tour, which recently concluded a successful run at Aviva Stadium and is scheduled to continue with three shows in Amsterdam starting July 4. Kelce, preparing for the upcoming NFL season with the Chiefs, plans to attend training camp beginning July 21, with the team’s first game scheduled for September 5 against the Baltimore Ravens.
“Football remains a priority for him, but so does their relationship,” the insider emphasized. “He makes romantic gestures to show he’s thinking of her when they’re apart, and she’s eager to support him by attending as many games as possible.”
Kelce expressed his joy at joining Swift on stage in London, describing it as a highlight of her tour and emphasizing their compatibility despite their different public personas.
“They enjoyed being on stage together,” another source shared. “He brings confidence and fun to their relationship, which she values.”
Swift and Kelce were first linked romantically in September, following Swift’s appearance at a Kansas City Chiefs game. Their relationship has since blossomed internationally, with travels to Australia, Singapore, Italy, and beyond.
Kelce recently spoke about their relationship on the Bussin’ With the Boys podcast, praising Swift’s down-to-earth nature and her ability to fit seamlessly into his hectic life.
