On Sunday, Travis Kelce helped the Kansas City Chiefs to an exciting 32-29 win over the Buffalo Bills to set up a Super Bowl 59 finale against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday 9 February.
Kelce, 35, is a key player in the Chiefs’ success but is otherwise known for his relationship with singer Taylor Swift.
The pair have been dating since the summer of 2023, and Swift, 35, is regularly spotted cheering on her partner from the stands at the GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas, Missouri.
Sunday’s win means the Kansas-based NFL side have reached their fifth Super Bowl in six years – winning three of the past five crowns including two in two in 2023 and 2024.
Last night, Swift was there to encourage Kelce. The pair embraced after the event, with a video going viral on social media after Swift offered her boyfriend some words of affirmation.

The official NFL TikTok account posted a video of the pair hugging in the aftermath of the Chiefs’ victory, while Swift uttered a few words.
Lip-reading expert, Jeremy Freeman, has given his take on what he thinks are the exact words the singer said to her partner.

'That was stunning,’ said Swift according to Freeman who spoke to Tyla.
He then explained how the pop star went on to say: ‘You stopped the catch-up,' although admitted he could not be sure.
Freeman then revealed that he thought Swift added: ‘You were sublime. Out of this world. That was great.’
Although he was unable to see Kelce’s response.

A jubilant Kelce gave his thoughts on his side's performances shortly after the match.
"It's a new feeling right now, but I'm just excited," Kelce told NFL.com on Sunday. "I'm happy for the guys that are doing this for the first time, trying to make it everything for them.
"But I know there's bigger fish to fry and that's the Philadelphia Eagles down there in New Orleans."

"We know they're gonna have a sour taste in their mouth from the last time we played them in the Super Bowl," Kelce added. "That being said, we gotta go to work. We gotta go to work and make sure we're ready to handle it."
Of course, back in 2023, the Chiefs defeat the Eagles 38-35 in Super Bowl 57.
