Swift moving in with Travis Kelce should be no surprise – the NFL star LOVES life in Kansas City and his $6m mansion can be a home base for America’s new favorite couple

Travis Kelce’s sparkling romance with Taylor Swift went up a level on Tuesday with DailyMail.Com exclusively reporting that she had moved in with the NFL star.

Back in October, it emerged that the Kansas City Chiefs star splashed out on the $6million property because he wanted extra privacy amid his romance with pop’s biggest star.

The new place is in a gated community in Kansas City and boats a waterfall, swimming pool and mini golf course, as well as three acres of land. 

It is said to be incredible value for money, as well – if it was anywhere near Swift’s Tribeca apartment in Manhattan, it would cost three times as much as the $6m that Kelce splashed out of his own money.

It should not be a surprise, however, that the couple appear to be setting up a base in Kansas City – despite there being other places in the US that seem a better fit for a couple as camera friendly as they are.

Chiefs star Kelce has long been open about how much he loves living in Kansas City

Chiefs star Kelce has long been open about how much he loves living in Kansas City 

For one, Travis has never been shy in saying how much he loves living there. He has been there his whole career since the Chiefs drafted him in 2013, having grown up in Ohio. His contract with the team is up after this season and he has made suggestions in recent weeks that retirement might come sooner than later.

But in truth, leaving the game after this season would be a massive shock. Despite a recent and brief wobble in form, he has been fantastic for the Chiefs overall this season and would be in a strong position to renegotiate a deal with improved terms on his current $11million annual salary.

Just this weekend, he became the fastest tight end in NFL history to pass 11,000 yards, reaching the landmark at an incredible rate of 154 games.

Recently, on the New Heights podcast he hosts with his brother Jason – who plays for the Philadelphia Eagles – he said being based in Kansas City was useful for getting around the country for road games in the football season – but that can extend beyond sport.

Responding to Jason – of the Philadelphia Eagles – talking about having a six-hour flight to Los Angeles to play the Rams, Travis said: ‘Dude, I am so fortunate I don’t have to deal with this s***.

‘I live in slap-dab the middle of America. So my flights don’t go over three hours. Three and some change, maybe, for Boston and Seattle. 

‘That’s why I love playing in Kansas City – you really don’t feel like you’re out of your time zone. I’ve never felt the impact of a long flight, I guess.’

It’s something that could genuinely appeal to Swift – a short flight to either coast for someone who spends plenty of time in New York and California, as well as having ties to Nashville.

Yahoo Sports reported in late October that while Kelce paid for the new mansion himself, he and Swift toured properties together before deciding to buy the $6m home. 

The publication quoted a source as saying: ‘Travis loves Taylor being at his games and hanging out in his city, and they’ve talked about both wanting to have a steady home base.

‘They toured houses together before he bought it. Things have been so seamless and natural. The longer this relationship goes on, the more apparent it is that Taylor and Travis are simply perfectly suited for each other.’ 

Travis, a two-time Super Bowl winner with the Chiefs, and Taylor went public with their relationship on September 24 when she made her first appearance at one of his games at Arrowhead Stadium against Chicago Bears. 

But long before Travis had finally got his way and taken the singer for a date, he was putting down roots in Kansas City.

Speaking at a golf charity event in Tahoe in 2022, Kelce said: ‘It’s the best. I love KC. It’s home for me now.

‘Over the past 10 years, I’ve grown a lot of love for it because of how much the community really feeds off each other and how much they support each other. That’s the best, man. 

‘When we can come together for a good cause and really make a difference. That’s everything to me, and Kansas City’s always for that.’

Swift now has a break in her touring schedule up until February, where a her Eras Tour goes truly global – starting in Tokyo, Japan before heading to , Singapore and Europe before ending the year back in the United States and Canada.
