Many people enjoy when the curtain is peeled back and they get a peek into what their favorite athletes, musicians or actors do in their spare time.

That certainly includes Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and superstar singer Taylor Swift. Fans love following their every move, and we’ve learned some of the places they frequent in Kansas City, including a new addition to their rotation of restaurants.

During his weekly conversation on 96.5 The Fan, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes shared a sweet story about his family and Swift.

Mahomes was asked if Swift has ever baked anything for him. That question was based on Swift making Pop-Tarts for Chiefs offensive linemen a year ago. And Kelce has mentioned her delicious cinnamon rolls, too.

That’s when Mahomes revealed that his 3-year-old daughter, Sterling, has had some special time with Swift, who is set to resume the Eras Tour on Friday.

“She never baked anything specifically for me,” Mahomes said. “But she’s made different treats that have been around my house, like muffins and donuts and stuff like that. Sterling’s a big baker as well, so they make some stuff together sometimes. I’m not going to say I don’t eat ‘em. She’s as good as everyone’s talked about. She’s as great as it comes as far as it comes to baking.”

Swift and Sterling baking together makes for an adorable mental image.
