Travis Kelce Believes It’s His Turn to ‘Prioritize’ and Support Taylor Swift for Overseas Eras Shows “I just had to make time for her”

Taylor Swift literally went great distances to support Travis Kelce during his NFL season, going so far as to travel from Tokyo immediately after wrapping an Eras show to Las Vegas to watch him play the Super Bowl.

All of Swift’s effort was not lost on her boyfriend, who sees it as his turn post-season to go the distance for her. A source explained to Entertainment Tonight that Kelce was eager to fly to Australia to watch Swift play her Sydney shows. (The couple was photographed having an affectionate outing at the Sydney Zoo today.)

“Taylor and Travis are both super busy right now, but they are trying their best to prioritize each other and their relationship,” the source started. “Travis is very into Taylor and wanted to be there to support her during her shows in Australia. He’s grateful that she showed up for him during a very hectic time in her career and made it a point to do the same for her. They’re making a joint effort to make things work.”

A separate source told Entertainment Tonight ahead of the Super Bowl that Kelce was really moved by the great effort Swift made to cheer him on at his Kansas City Chiefs football games. “Travis has never felt more supported by a significant other ever,” that source said. “This is just the beginning for them as a couple and many milestones are coming their way. Taylor and Travis make time for each other because they want to.

They both take so much pride in the importance of family and love bringing their families and close-knit circles together. They are genuine, honest, loving and forthright with each other across the board. They both continually encourage one another to be the best that they can be.”

Swift spoke to Time in December about how she and Kelce just want to show their support for one another’s careers. She addressed the public nature of their relationship, saying, “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. 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 we’re just proud of each other.”
