Taylor Swift Opens Up About Her ‘Passionate’ Connection with Travis Kelce

Taylor Swift thinks her love story with fiancé Travis Kelce makes perfect sense.

The 35-year-old pop star is continuing to open up about her more than two-year romance with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end. 

“I love the person that I am with because he loves what I do and he loves how much I am fulfilled by making art and making music,” Swift shared on BBC Radio 2’s The Scott Mills Breakfast Show. “That’s the coolest thing about Travis, like he is so passionate about what he does, that me being passionate about what I do, it connects us.” 

Swift, who has also shut down rumors that she’ll quit making music after getting married, added that the New Heights podcaster, 35, supports all of her future work. 

“There’s no point in time where he’s gonna be like, ‘I’m really upset that you’re still making the music,’ ” the “Wood” singer noted.

Calling supporting one another’s passions “the most fun thing in the world,” Swift added that while they have many differences in their respective careers, “there’s a lot of similarities too.” 

“We both, as a living, as a job, as a passion, perform for three and a half hours in NFL stadiums,” she explained. “We both do three and a half hour shows to entertain people for three and a half hours in NFL stadiums. When I’m in those stadiums, it’s a dressing room, but when he’s in those exact same stadiums, it’s a locker room.”

“And we’re both competitive, like in fun ways, not in ways that eat away at us, but just like we just love it,” Swift noted.

She added that as she’s aged, she’s been better able to prioritize the things that mean the most to her in life. 

“The longer I’m alive, the smaller the list is of things that really matter,” she explained. “And the things that do matter, it’s my family. It’s my relationship. It’s my friends. It’s my art. It’s baking. Genuinely, it’s my cats.” 

Swift said the list is “things that I’m so happy to have in my life that it’s a very small amount and everything that is noise like you deal with it just like anything else.”

“It’s not like you’re impenetrable and immune to stress but I do know that it’s just stress and I’ve been through a lot of stress before just like everyone else and then you’re gonna be fine as long as it’s just stress,” she added.

The “Opalite” music also shared that while “life is always chaotic … I do think that like one thing I love about having been alive longer than I had been before … you hopefully learn to sort of filter out what matters really. I’m a little bit more able to sort of sense what’s a real like emergency and what’s a real reason to be very upset.”

On Friday, Oct. 3, Swift released her highly-anticipated 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, with lots of songs referencing her romance with Kelce. 

She has described her feelings about the new music as giving her “uncomplicated joy” at this stage of her life.
