Travis Kelce responded to a media question about how he and his A-list girlfriend Taylor Swift handle the intense attention surrounding their relationship.
“The only thing we’ve talked about is as long as we’re happy, we can’t listen to anything that’s outside noise,” he said during a press conference Friday. “That’s all that matters.”
Travis Kelce revealed how he and Taylor Swift handle the media storm surrounding them during a press conference Friday.(
“The only thing we’ve talked about is as long as we’re happy, we can’t listen to anything that’s outside noise,” he confidently stated.
The Kansas City Chiefs player’s interview quickly went viral with the singer’s fanbase praising the sweet response.
“Travis is such a great guy,” one fan gushed on X.
“Taylor and Travis are both incredible at what they do and always so kind and generous.”
An emotional user wrote, “My heart. I cannot handle it. I think Taylor fans never knew it could be this good for her.”
“stop it they’re so perfect,” another supporter raved.
Kelce is preparing for Sunday’s AFC championship game against the Baltimore Ravens, which he assured the press is his main focus at the moment.
“You hear the media throughout the year, if we’re not having success, maybe throw it out there that I wasn’t focused or the team isn’t focused on certain things,” he explained.
“If you’re in this building, you know exactly what’s going on.”
The two-time Super Bowl champ continued, “So you’ve got to compartmentalize what you’re hearing and make sure that you’re staying on task and giving everybody in the building and on that team the right perception when you walk in.”
His quarterback and best friend Patrick Mahomes previously asserted to the press that his dedication to the game has not changed since he and the “Cruel Summer” singer got together.
The duo have been together since July 2023, but confirmed romance rumors in September 2023 when Swift supported Kelce at his game against the Chicago Bears.
The couple has faced intense criticism and Kelce has even been accused of losing his focus on football.
While Swift, 34, has become a regular at Kelce’s games since making her debut appearance at his face-off against the Chicago Bears on Sept. 24, 2023, it’s not clear if she will make it this Sunday, as she officially commenced Eras Tour rehearsals this week, according to one of her backup dancers, Natalie Lecznar.
She is set to kick off the next leg of her international tour dates in Tokyo on Feb. 7.
Meanwhile, Kylie Kelce confirmed during a visit to “Good Morning America” on Thursday that she and her husband, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, will watch his brother Travis and the Chiefs take on the Ravens.
Last week, Jason made headlines for his rowdy shirtless antics at his brother’s game and for lifting up a young Swift fan in the stands to meet the singer.
However, during his chat with reporters Friday, he reasserted that his focus is on winning the AFC championship against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
“You’ve got to compartmentalize what you’re hearing and make sure that you’re staying on task,” he explained.
During the subsequent episode of “New Heights,” Travis told Jason that Swift “absolutely loved” his energy.
Since July 2023, Travis and the pop sensation have been dating, and they haven’t held back when showing their affection.
During multiple date nights in New York City last autumn, they held hands in front of the cameras and shared a kiss behind the stage at the Eras Tour in Argentina.
Swift has watched Kelce play nearly a dozen times this season.
It’s unclear if she will be at Sunday’s championship as she prepares to head overseas for the Eras Tour.
She even changed a lyric in her song “Karma” during one of her shows to say, “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me.”
“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,” Swift explained of their PDA during her 2023 Time Person of the Year profile.
“And we’re just proud of each other.”
