THE RUNDOWN
- Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are celebrating their first holiday season as an engaged couple.
- Sources say Swift plans to slow down and enjoy “her favorite time of the year.”
- Kelce has a Kansas City Chiefs home game on Christmas day; Swift attended his 2023 Christmas day game and has kept a low profile at his home games throughout this season.
After spending her Thanksgiving out of the public eye, Taylor Swift is gearing up for a very special—and very low-key—Christmas. Her fiancé, Travis Kelce, and the Kansas City Chiefs have a home game on Christmas day.
A source told Us Weekly on December 17 that Swift has been purposely savoring this holiday season. “This is her favorite time of year with the holidays and her birthday, and she has been intentionally slowing down,” the insider said. She’s been “cooking, spending time with family, and carving out space to enjoy being engaged.”
On October 29, Us Weekly reported that the couple was actively trying to minimize any holiday season stress as they looked ahead to end-of-year festivities, saying their plans “will be very low-key, family-centric and [won’t involve any] major travel.”
Swift kept her birthday celebration private, though she was spotted at Kelce’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers the following day, on December 14. Members of both her and Kelce’s family joined her, including her mother, Kelce’s mom Donna Kelce, and her future sister- and brother-in-law, Kylie and Jason Kelce.
The singer has struck a thoughtful balance between sharing some parts of her relationship (including in her docuseries The End of an Era) while keeping other moments private. While she and Kelce haven’t shared photos from past Christmases together, Swift was photographed at his Christmas day game in 2023.
In 2024, Swift was not seen attending Kelce’s away game. The singer has only been seen at home games the past two seasons, in part due to security concerns. In October 2024, a source told Page Six, “She’s not going anywhere unless she knows the venue intimately, and it has been thoroughly scouted and secured in advance.”
In the spirit of holiday giving, Swift has a generous gift for her fans: the next two episodes of her docuseries will debut on December 19 on Disney+.
Beyond that, Swift has kept her career plans to herself, but she is thinking about what’s next. A source told Us Weekly on December 17 that she “always has ideas percolating,” even if she’s not “locked into” doing another tour for her album The Life of a Showgirl. “There have been ideas floated, but right now she is enjoying her break.”
