Here’s Why Travis Kelce Didn’t Make It to Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour Shows in Milan, and also why he won’t be travelling to support his girlfriend Taylor Swift’s remaining Eras Tour

Taylor Swift had shows in Milan, Italy, on July 13 and 14, but her boyfriend Travis Kelce was not in the audience.

The NFL star was back in the U.S. as of last week. On Friday, he played at the American Century Championship golf tournament alongside his brother, Jason Kelce.

He was caught dancing to a remix of Swift’s “Lavender Haze” on the 17th hole, in a video shared on X, formerly known as Twitter. The event was held around Lake Tahoe, Nevada, and while they weren’t together, they were thinking of one another. That same evening, Swift liked a post that named Kelce the number one tight end in the NFL.

“ESPN polled coaches, executives and scouts for their top 10 Tight Ends in the NFL with Travis being ranked 1st in the league!” the post on Instagram read.

And at the celebrity tournament, Travis also thought of Swift after winning a karaoke contest for his performance of Whitesnake’s “Here I Go Again.” In his acceptance speech, he told the crowd, “Taylor, this is for you.”

Kelce just returned from a trip to Europe, attending Swift’s shows in London, Dublin, and Amsterdam. He even appeared on stage during one night at Wembley Stadium, playfully vamping on stage with his girlfriend while wearing a top hat and full tuxedo. He eventually carried her off stage during the transition skit finale. Soon, he’ll be heading to training camp ahead of the next NFL season.

A source told People earlier in July that Kelce tries to make Swift feel special even when they are separated.

“Football is definitely still his priority, but so is his relationship,” the source explained. “He makes romantic gestures to show he’s thinking of her when they’re apart. She’s going to try to attend as many games as possible.”
