Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dominating headlines and sparking an internet frenzy since the superstar attended a football game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Chicago Bears on September 24, and one dating expert is wondering why the public is so interested .
Swift was seen in a luxury suite at Arrowhead Stadium during the game, along with Kelce’s mother, Donna, wearing Chiefs gear and cheering on the tight end. After the game, Kelce and Swift were seen driving away together in his convertible.
Kelce first shared his interest in Swift after attending her Eras Tour stop in Kansas City. After the show, he revealed that he had made a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it, a must-have for Swift’s show, but he didn’t get a chance to give it to her.

There has been talk on the internet about whether Taylor and Travis make a good couple. According to Conti, “The pairing is a total nod to the classic Americana theme Taylor sings about.”
“As a couple, it’s clear there’s real potential here,” Conti said. “As far as age compatibility is concerned, they are both 33 years old and are most likely at the stage of life where they are meeting with the intention of finding their forever partner with whom they can start a family. They both have strong family values; Travis was it.” Taylor grew up in the Midwest and spent much of her younger years in Tennessee.

Swift has been in several relationships since she became a household name. However, according to Conti, Kelce’s public pursuit of Swift is the reason her fans are reacting so positively to this new rumored romance.

“This is also the first time the public has seen a man actively pursuing Taylor Swift,” she said. “Many A-list celebrity women have a lot of trouble finding a partner because the majority of men are afraid of pursuing a woman to such a high level. And they have the misconception that these women are bombarded with real suitors, which is just how it is. “That’s not the case, otherwise I wouldn’t have a job in Hollywood.
