After more than six years of keeping her relationship with Joe Alwyn out of the spotlight, Taylor Swift is ready to talk about her love life. She opened up about her new romance with Travis Kelce for the first time in her Wednesday, December 6, interview with Time magazine.
“This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell,” Taylor, 33, who was named Time’s Person of the Year, said. “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.”
Travis’ podcast declaration came in July after he attended the Eras tour at Arrowhead Stadium. He admitted that he wished he’d gotten to meet Taylor and give her his phone number at the show. The couple went public with their relationship on September 24 when the pop star attended Travis’ football game in Kansas City.
“By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple,” Taylor dished. “I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”
The “Anti-Hero” singer has since attended several more Kansas City Chiefs games to cheer on Travis, 34. He was also in attendance at her Eras tour in Argentina on November 11. “When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him do what he loves,” she explained. “We’re showing up for each other. Other people are there and we don’t care.”
