As the temperatures drop and the holiday season begins, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will have their love to keep them warm!

The pop superstar is slated to wrap her Eras Tour in Vancouver on Dec. 8 after 152 shows — and she’ll be spending some down time with her tight end boyfriend, a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE in this week’s cover story.

“Things with Travis are serious. He makes her very happy. They are great together,” the insider says of the couple. “Travis is a great guy. He’s a very real person, kind and a gentleman. It’s obvious that he loves Taylor.”

Swift, 34, and Kelce, 35, first took their relationship public in the fall of 2023, and have since remained staunch supporters of one another. The athlete has been a fixture at Swift’s Eras Tour shows, attending more than a dozen concerts, often with her parents, Scott and Andrea Swift. He even joined the star onstage in London in June.

“That thing was rocking. Absolutely rocking,” he said on his New Heights podcast of attending her Nov. 2 stop in Indianapolis.

The Grammy winner, meanwhile, has returned the favor, attending every home game the Chiefs have played so far this season. She most recently cheered Kelce on wearing a sparkly “87” necklace, a nod to his jersey number, as the Chiefs beat the Las Vegas Raiders in Kansas City on Nov. 29.

The Nov. 29 game came just one day after Swift — who was named Spotify’s most-streamed artist globally for the second year in a row — and Kelce spent Thanksgiving together with their families in Nashville, Tenn., a source previously told PEOPLE. Guests included Kelce’s brother Jason, his pregnant wife Kylie and their three daughters Bennett, 21 months, Elliotte, 3, and Wyatt, 5.

Since going public, Swift and Kelce have been vocal cheerleaders for one another. While accepting the win for video of the year at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, Swift gave the athlete a shoutout for his support as she filmed her “Fortnight” music video.

“When I would finish a take and I’d say ‘cut’ and we’d be done with that take, I would always just hear like, someone cheering from across the studio where we shooting it, and that one person was my boyfriend, Travis,” she told the crowd. “Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic. So I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I’ll always remember that.”

Kelce, meanwhile, recently revealed that “Blank Space” is the one Swift song he’d choose to listen to forever.

“It’s just unbelievable, everything about it,” he said on a bonus episode of his New Heights podcast. “I’ll throw a few new ones out there. ‘Death By a Thousand Cuts’ is one that I’ve learned to absolutely love.”

He continued, “I’ve watched Tay’s NPR, her Tiny Desk and she played it on that one and that’s where I fell in love with it. On top of that I mean ‘The Alchemy’ can’t go wrong with that one.”

He also highlighted “Cowboy Like Me” as “another good one,” while Jason said his favorite is “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.”
