Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is proud to be an Ohio native, and he is a big fan of his hometown sports teams ... except when he’s playing against the Cleveland Browns.
But Kelce isn’t shy about rooting for the Guardians or Cavaliers, and he showed that again Saturday night. Kelce and his fiancée, international singing star Taylor Swift, were at the Cavaliers’ game against the Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Their appearance at Rocket Arena turned heads, because Kelce and Swift are arguably the best-known couple in the United States.
Forbes recently estimated Swift’s net worth to be $2 billion and Spotrac shows Kelce has earned more than $110 million in salary during his time in the NFL. Plus, Kelce and his brother, Jason, reportedly are being paid more than $100 million for their New Heights podcast.
Despite that wealth, Swift and Kelce at one point looked just like any other couple at the NBA playoff game. It came when Swift made a sly gesture for Kelce. The 14-time Grammy Award winner reached into her purse and sneaked a piece of gum to the 11-time Pro Bowler.
Don’t worry if you missed this because it was done quickly and not everyone noticed. But some did — and they loved how relatable that moment was.
