Ever since Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift started dating back in 2023, they were "the" couple.

They were plastered on every newspaper, TV show, and just about anywhere else you could think of. They were riding high...until they weren't.

The Super Bowl loss shone an ugly light on the pair. Kelce lost and played poorly, which some think was because of Swift. Then Taylor was booed by Philadelphia Eagles fans.

Things were getting too much, and after the Super Bowl, they laid low and got away from the public eye for a couple of weeks. Now, only just coming back out into the spotlight, a source told US Weekly, that Travis and Taylor came to the realization that all the media attention wasn't good for them.

“Taylor and Travis have learned that so much attention on their relationship is not the best thing,” the source said.

Last season, every time Swift came to a Chiefs game, she was the center of attention, with TV networks making sure she got on the screen. This also led to some not-so-nice feelings towards Swift.

But another source, who spoke with US Weekly, says that Kelce doesn't want that in 2025.

"He wants to have a good season and not have the focus be on his relationship with Taylor,” the source said.

Of course, when you are such a big celebrity, that is easier said than done, but it appears that both Travis and Taylor have realized that all the attention on them has been detrimental to the relationship.

Now they know what to avoid, and the pair appears to be doing really well. Thoughts of a marriage or a baby reportedly may be on the to-do list down the line, too.
