On February 9, a somber Taylor Swift watched as boyfriend Travis Kelce\u2019s Kansas City Chiefs got pummeled by the Philadelphia Eagles during Super Bowl LIX at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. The vibe had been dramatically different in 2024 when an elated Swift shared a sweet victory kiss with Kelce on the field, and the two went on to celebrate with pals <strong>Patrick<\/strong> and <strong>Brittany Mahomes<\/strong> at an afterparty on the Las Vegas strip.<\/main>It wasn\u2019t the outcome either had hoped for, and it came on the heels of Swift being snubbed one week prior at the 67th Grammy Awards. (She won two trophies in 2024.) The back-to-back losses led to online chatter about Swift and Kelce\u2019s charmed run coming to an end. But a source exclusively tells <em>Us Weekly<\/em> the couple, both 35, have other things on their minds, namely the chance to finally spend some serious quality time together. (Swift began her nearly two-year <em>Eras Tour<\/em> in March 2023, a few months before she and the tight end started dating and football season kicked off.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we get past the Super Bowl, I think it\u2019s going to be a very good period for the two of them without the NFL season, without the <em>Eras Tour<\/em>,\u201d Kelce\u2019s dad, <strong>Ed<\/strong>, told Australia\u2019s <em>Today<\/em> show in early February. \u201cJust them alone, really connecting more. And I think that can only be a good thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A source tells <em>Us<\/em> \u201cthere\u2019s a sense of relief\u201d for the couple, noting that their plans include \u201claying low\u201d and figuring out their next steps. Adds a second source: \u201cThere\u2019s no way to have a relationship when they\u2019re all over the place with work. It\u2019s going to be easier now to find time to go over plans and make sure everything aligns.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>No Distractions<\/h3>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Taylor-Swift-and-Travis-Kelce-Are-Blocking-Out-the-Noise-%E2%80%94-And-Turning-Up-the-Love-561.jpg?w=1000&amp;quality=40&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Are Blocking Out the Noise \u2014 And Turning Up the Love 561\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>Swift\u2019s had a head start since wrapping up her epic 149-date tour in December. While Kelce finished out the season, she spent time at her NYC pad and catching up with friends. \u201cTaylor\u2019s been recouping from the tour,\u201d a source told <em>Us<\/em> earlier this year. \u201cShe\u2019s taking time to ease back into things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re both excited to have an extended stretch of downtime \u2014 away from the spotlight and public scrutiny. According to the first source, they\u2019ll head to Kansas City to unwind for a few months. \u201cThey both want to rest and decompress. Neither of them have huge commitments coming up,\u201d the first source adds. The second source says they have plans to travel as well. (Last March, they jetted off to a luxe, $15,000-a-night private resort in the Bahamas.) \u201cTaylor wants to go to multiple places in Europe and somewhere tropical.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At home, they\u2019re just like any other couple \u2014 they cook, hang out and watch TV. (Kelce revealed on his \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast last September that they\u2019d watched his brother, <strong>Jason<\/strong>, make his <em>Monday Night Football<\/em> broadcasting debut together, telling him that they \u201cwere dying laughing\u201d when he said \u201ctits\u201d on live TV.) \u201cThey do love going out to dinner and getting drinks with friends, but when they get the chance to be home together, they are very low-key,\u201d says the first source, adding that Swift \u201ccooks a lot for Travis. It\u2019s his love language.\u201d During a February 3 pre-Superbowl media event, Kelce told a reporter Swift is \u201cquite the cook,\u201d adding that his favorite dish of hers is her homemade Pop-Tarts. \u201cI\u2019m a breakfast guy. Man, her Pop-Tarts are unbelievable,\u201d he gushed.<\/p>\n<p>Swift has been helping Kelce lick his wounds since the big game. During the February 12 episode of \u201cNew Heights,\u201d a bummed-out Kelce told Jason that losing was a \u201ctough pill to swallow\u201d but said having his loved ones there made it \u201ca little easier.\u201d The first source says Swift is \u201cjust trying to be there for Travis as much as possible\u201d and that fellow WAG Brittany \u201chelped guide her through everything that comes along with being with someone in the NFL. They\u2019ve become very close.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kelce and Swift may do some house-hunting while in Kansas City. \u201cThey want to look at real estate,\u201d a source told <em>Us<\/em> in early February. \u201cThey\u2019ve talked about buying a home together.\u201d Swift has also been busy renovating her $17 million Rhode Island mansion, where she hosted friends, including the Mahomes and <strong>Jason<\/strong> and <strong>Kylie Kelce<\/strong>, last summer.<\/p>\n<h3>Putting a Ring On It<\/h3>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Taylor-Swift-and-Travis-Kelce-Are-Blocking-Out-the-Noise-%E2%80%94-And-Turning-Up-the-Love-567.jpg?w=1000&amp;quality=40&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Are Blocking Out the Noise \u2014 And Turning Up the Love 567\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>In the weeks leading up to the Super Bowl, there was talk Kelce would propose if the Chiefs won. The NFL star played coy with reporters who asked him whether he\u2019d pop the question at halftime. \u201cWouldn\u2019t you like to know,\u201d he said, smiling at the camera. His dad told Australia\u2019s <em>Jimmy &amp; Nath Breakfast Show<\/em> that he\u2019d steer his son away from doing something so publicly. \u201cMy advice to him would be\u2026 I think your engagement needs to be separate from any other event,\u201d Ed said. \u201cIt has to be about the two of you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, fans and friends alike are speculating about (and hoping for) an impending proposal. \u201cThose close to them actually think [Travis may do it] while they\u2019re on vacation,\u201d the second source says, with the first adding, \u201cThey are both on the same page about taking the next step.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kelce\u2019s career plans will be a factor timing-wise. The first source tells <em>Us<\/em> the athlete \u201cwas hoping he\u2019d end his career on a high.\u201d But after the blowout Super Bowl loss, \u201che\u2019s reconsidering what he wants moving forward. He may come back next season.\u201d (The tight end is still currently under contract with the Chiefs for 2025.) On \u201cNew Heights,\u201d Kelce said he\u2019s \u201cgonna take some time\u201d to think about retiring. \u201cRight now, I\u2019m just kicking everything down the road,\u201d he shared, admitting the \u201cwear and tear\u201d football\u2019s had on his body. \u201cI\u2019m not making any crazy decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kelce also has plenty going on off the field: After hosting <em>Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?<\/em> and appearing on <strong>Ryan Murphy<\/strong>\u2019s <em>Grotesquerie<\/em>, he\u2019ll pop up in <strong>Adam Sandler<\/strong>\u2019s <em>Happy Gilmore 2<\/em> later this year. Last August, he and Jason signed a three-year deal with Wondery for their \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast, reportedly worth over $100 million.<\/p>\n<p>No matter what Kelce decides, he\u2019ll have Swift by his side. \u201cTaylor will support him either way,\u201d says the first source. Adds the second: \u201cTaylor and Travis work so well [together]. They\u2019re still madly in love, and their relationship just keeps getting better and better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more on Taylor and Travis, watch the exclusive video above and pick up the latest issue of Us Weekly \u2014 on newsstands now.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Insiders exclusively revealed to Us Weekly what Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift\u2019s \u201clow-key\u201d plans are after his Super Bowl defeat \u2014 and the latest on a possible proposal<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":35444,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35443","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-taylor-swifts"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
