Travis Kelce isn’t hiding his admiration for Taylor Swift and fans are loving every second of it.
While most NFL headlines this time of year focus on training camp and season predictions, Kelce threw fans a curveball with a personal, and surprisingly heartfelt, confession about his superstar girlfriend.
During a recent episode of the Calm Down podcast with Charissa Thompson and Erin Andrews, the veteran sports broadcasters shared stories from their now-famous offseason Montana vacation with the couple. They gushed about Swift’s down-to-earth energy. They said she had a “20/20” personality and described her as warm, thoughtful, and magnetic in person.
And Kelce couldn’t help but jump in.
“She’s a 20/20!! Some of the best memories of the offseason. Jimmy’s forever!!!” he wrote on Instagram, publicly backing the praise with his own stamp of affection.
A Touchdown in the Comment Section
It was a simple comment, but one that sent Swifties and sports fans into overdrive.
Not only did it confirm how serious the couple’s bond has become, but it also highlighted just how comfortable Kelce is expressing his admiration for Swift openly, even in public forums usually dominated by sports talk and locker room banter.
In a world where athletes are often guarded off the field, Kelce’s transparency is a breath of fresh air.
A Crossover Couple Everyone’s Watching
Since their relationship first went public in fall 2023, Swift and Kelce have captivated audiences across both music and sports. From Eras Tour shoutouts to matching vacation photos, they’ve become a cultural crossover that just works and their fans can’t get enough.
Podcast hosts Thompson and Andrews, both of whom have long championed the couple, said Swift impressed them with how “normal” and kind she was during their time together.
“She’s just like everyone else,” Thompson said, while Andrews added they were both “protective” of the couple’s privacy and genuinely happy for their happiness.
Kelce’s Public Praise Says More Than You Think
By echoing their compliments on Instagram, and using phrases like “Jimmy’s forever” (a nod to inside jokes or shared moments), Kelce isn’t just being playful. He’s sending a message: he’s all in, and he’s proud of it.
It’s the kind of casual, confident affection that reminds fans why this relationship feels different. And with both Swift and Kelce at the top of their game, it’s no wonder the internet hangs on every post, quote, and emoji.
Whether it’s a touchdown celebration or a comment under a podcast clip, one thing’s clear: Travis Kelce isn’t just shooting his shot anymore. He’s standing proudly beside the woman who caught it.
