Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his fiancée, Taylor Swift, made their official red carpet debut at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards last week.
After years of seeing Swift cheer on Kelce at Chiefs games, fans finally got to see the 11-time Pro Bowler support the pop star at an awards ceremony. Kelce danced alongside Swift in the front row and hyped the crowd to clap louder as she took home a total of seven awards, including Album of the Year and Artist of the Year.
Kelce could be seen mouthing, “I love you,” during her first acceptance speech.

A few days after the couple’s big night, Swift was spotted attending the second night of Paul McCartney’s show at the Fonda Theater on March 28. Other celebrities in attendance included Harrison Ford, his wife, Calista Flockhart, Jon Hamm, Steve Carell, Billie Eilish, Laura Dern, Reese Witherspoon, Sabrina Carpenter, Christina Aguilera, and one of Swift’s ex-boyfriends, John Mayer.
While Swift was seen chatting with Olivia Rodrigo on her way out, Kelce was nowhere in sight. Kelce previously hung out with the Beatles legend in the VIP tent during the “Eras Tour” stop in London in June 2024.
However, the 36-year-old tight end had a good reason for missing McCartney’s sold-out show.
Travis Kelce Went on a Boys’ Golfing Trip With George Kittle
After the iHeartRadio Music Awards, it appears Kelce flew to Oregon for a boys’ trip. Along with San Francisco 49ers stars George Kittle and Kyle Juszczyk, fellow Chiefs tight end Robert Tonyan, and more, they went golfing at Bandon Dunes in Oregon.
Kittle posted several photos from the trip on Instagram and wrote, “Bandon Boys ft…” Juszczyk commented, “All time trip.”
Kelce loves to golf as much as possible during the offseason. He even skipped this year’s Pro Bowl to compete in the WM Phoenix Open pro-am alongside Scottie Scheffler and Brooks Koepka.
The Chiefs’ star and Kittle are close friends. Kelce and Swift had a double date with Kittle and his wife, Claire Kittle, at The Bird Streets Club in LA last month.
Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce Will Reportedly Wed ‘Sooner Rather Than Later’
GettyTaylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding date may catch fans off guard.
The most exciting part of Swift and Kelce’s offseason is soon to come — their wedding. Reports have swirled for months that Swift and Kelce plan to tie the knot on June 13 at the Ocean House in Watch Hill, Rhode Island. However, that may be just a ruse.
DeuxMoi recently reported, “Multiple sources say the couple’s wedding is not some far-off event, it’s moving quickly, with a timeline that appears to be accelerating behind the scenes.
“While nothing has been publicly confirmed, insiders point to a ceremony expected sooner rather than later. We’re also hearing invitations have already gone out. Not in a flashy, over-the-top way but quietly, and with very little information attached. Guests have allegedly been told to keep their schedules open, with final details expected to come much closer to the actual date.”
DeuxMoi added, “Despite a flood of online claims pointing to specific venues or destinations, there is still no confirmed site and that appears to be very intentional. In fact, some sources suggest even invited guests may not receive the exact location until closer to the event, a move designed to prevent leaks and maintain total privacy.”
