“You want to keep things private but at the same time like I’m not here to hide anything, that’s my girl, that’s my lady, I’m proud of that” – Travis Kelce talks about his relationship with Taylor Swift in a viral video…

A smitten Travis Kelce admits he is proud to call Taylor Swift his ‘lady’ as the Kansas City Chiefs star lifts the lid on their whirlwind romance.

Kelce and Swift have been dating for the best part of a year, with the pop sensation’s first appearance at Arrowhead for one of his NFL games last September publicly confirming the relationship.

Since then the world’s most high-profile celebrity couple have gone from strength to strength; enjoying a host of trips away and nights out together, meeting the families and supporting each other in their respective fields.

Just last weekend Kelce was in London for Swift’s sold-out Eras Tour concert at Wembley Stadium, even joining his girlfriend up on stage in Sunday’s show.

And during an appearance on the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast, the Chiefs tight end revealed what it’s like dating the most famous singer on the planet.

You want to keep things private, but at the same time, like, I’m not here to hide anything. That’s my girl, you know what I mean? That’s my lady, so it’s like… I’m proud of that,’ Kelce said.

‘I’m not sitting here trying to juggle like, “how can I keep this under wraps?” You just don’t want to let everyone into your personal life and be able to comment on it, knowing that everything she does is getting a headline.’

Given they are both all-time greats in their own industries, Kelce and Swift have dominated headlines ever since romance first blossomed last year, with the loved-up pair drawing attention from all across the globe.

Even for Travis, widely considered the best tight end in NFL history, the increased spotlight that dating Taylor has brought came as a major shock.
