Taylor Swift had no idea who Travis Kelce was in 2023. During that summer, Kelce revealed to the world that he struck out with the singer after attending her concert.
The tight end outlined his attempt on an episode of the ‘New Heights’ podcast. Kelce put his phone number on a friendship bracelet, hoping to hand it to Taylor. However, he was “butthurt” after finding out she doesn’t meet with anyone. This is done before or after she performs.
Luckily for him, Taylor’s mother was on his side. Everything was played out for fans in Taylor Swift’s docuseries “The Eras Tour: The End of an Era.” It featured a casual conversation between Taylor and her mother, Andrea. They were lounging on a couch in a living room.
Taylor discussed how Andrea played matchmaker in introducing Taylor to her fiancé, Travis Kelce. The chat then transitioned to a clip of Kelce talking about attending her concert.
Andrea Swift says, “And I see that this guy came to your show, and he brought a friendship bracelet and wants to meet you. And so, of course, I call up my resident expert on Kansas City Chiefs, my cousin Robin…”
“Tell me about this guy named Travis Kelce,” she says. She then discovers how great he is and how much he loves his mother.

Kelce previously revealed that someone in her camp had been in his corner.
“There were definitely people she knew that knew who I was. I had somebody playing Cupid,” he told The Wall Street Journal in November 2023. “[Taylor] told me exactly what was going on and how I got lucky enough to get her to reach out.”
Taylor Swift then jumps in about how she was very non-athlete when it came to dating. She then spoke about the conversation she had with her mother about Kelce. Swift then added how Kelce had to explain football to her on their first date.
Fast forward to 2025, and the couple is engaged to be married. Kelce might be playing the final few games of his NFL career. Their wedding date is in the summer of 2026.
