Taylor Swift has joined the “Chiefs Kingdom” and been welcomed by the team throughout her relationship with tight end Travis Kelce, according to Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
“We made a few jokes at first, but she’s now a member of Chiefs Kingdom. “She’s on the team,” Mahomes told Nate Burleson on “CBS Mornings.”
“It’s great that she has accepted Brittany (Mahomes’ wife), and they’ve formed a bond as well. For me, it’s just Travis. He’s fortunate to be with a great girl and a great woman.”
The public reveal of Swift and Kelce’s connection became one of the year’s most memorable pop culture moments, attracting the attention of both NFL fans and Swifties.
