Travis Kelce may have been absent from Taylor Swift’s final show in Gelsenkirchen, but his presence was certainly felt. The football star, who was spotted at Swift’s previous two shows in Germany, returned to the U.S. to prepare for Kansas City Chiefs training camp. However, Swift seemed to give him a musical shout-out during her performance, further fueling rumors about their whirlwind romance.
During her Friday, July 19th concert, Swift surprised fans with a mashup of “Paper Rings” from her Lover album and “Stay Stay Stay” from Red (Taylor’s Version). The altered lyrics seemed to directly reference Kelce, leaving Swifties in a frenzy.
“I like shiny things, but I’d marry you with paper rings, that’s right, you’re the one I want,” Swift sang. “That’s when you came in wearing a football helmet.”
A Whirlwind Romance Takes Center Stage
Kelce’s appearances at Swift’s concerts have become a highlight of the Eras Tour’s European leg. The couple first sparked dating rumors in April and have been spotted together on several occasions since. Kelce’s dedication to supporting Swift, despite his demanding NFL schedule, has captured the attention of fans and media alike.
On Wednesday, July 17th, fans captured footage of the couple leaving the stadium together after Swift’s first Gelsenkirchen show, with Kelce’s arm around her. The following night, he watched the show from a VIP box before joining Swift backstage and departing together once again.
From Instagram Official to On-Stage Cameo
Swift and Kelce seemingly went Instagram official in June when Swift shared a photo of herself alongside Kelce, Prince William, and his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte. The caption read, “Thank you for your gracious hospitality and letting us use the loo!”
Kelce even joined Swift on stage during a show at London’s Wembley Stadium, participating in a skit and carrying her off stage. The moment sent fans into a frenzy, cementing their status as a power couple to watch.
Will the “Stay Stay Stay” Remix Fuel More Speculation?
Swift’s lyric change in Gelsenkirchen has only intensified the interest surrounding her relationship with Kelce. While neither has publicly confirmed their romance, their actions speak volumes.
