After a rosy start to their fairytale romance, Kelce and Swift reportedly had their first lovers’ tiff after the Chiefs’ loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Christmas Day.
The celebrity super-couple have dominated headlines ever since Swift publicly confirmed their relationship by rocking up at Arrowhead to watch Kelce in action for the very first time.
It has even been claimed that they are planning to get engaged in the summer, with Travis preparing to pop the question on their one-year anniversary together in July.
Yet could their be trouble in paradise?
According to Life & Style, Kelce ‘snapped’ at Swift on Christmas Day as the pair clashed in their first argument following the Chiefs’ loss to the Las Vegas Raiders.

Amid reports of his spat with Swift, Kelce was seen with a stony look on his face in exclusive photos from Dailymail.com as he left the Chiefs’ hotel ahead of their crucial playoff game against the Miami Dolphins at Arrowhead.
A source is quoted as saying that the row ruined his and Taylor’s holidays given it was their first fight in five months together.
And over a week later, Swift’s stressful holiday season was followed by a controversial New York Times article which questioned her sexuality.
Taylor’s friends were said to be upset about the opinion piece, adding to the tumultuous fortnight she encounter after her lovers’ tiff with Kelce.
It is believed Taylor is now starting to acknowledge the challenges that come with dating a high-profile athlete, with the pop sensation even asking fellow WAG Brittany Mahomes for advice.
‘Brittany told Taylor to let Travis lick his wounds, but it wasn’t easy,’ the source is quoted as saying.
Swift was reportedly a ‘nervous wreck’ when she next attended a Chiefs game on New Year’s Eve, despite being seen sharing a kiss with her boyfriend later in the evening at a glitzy party.
The prospect of another Kansas City loss ruining their celebrations was a huge worry for the singer and songwriter, but fortunately Kelce and Co prevailed in a 25-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
Travis opened up on the pain of losing to Las Vegas on Christmas Day, admitting on his New Heights podcast that it was ‘the f****ng worst’.
‘That was embarrassing. Everybody in the building knows how embarrassing that was. We got a short week so we’re going to forget about this s*** real quick,’ he said.

It is believed Taylor is starting to realize the challenge of dating a high-profile athlete after their first fight together
‘It’s a f***ing frustrating experience right now and every single day we’re trying to fix it. I promise you guys.
‘It’s not just one. It’s not just me playing dog s***… we played so trash as an offense that we put the defense in a really tough spot at the end of the game. It’s frustrating when you’ve got the guys you need and things aren’t going your way.’
Constant travel is also believed to be a growing issue for Travis and Taylor as they clock up countless miles to visit one another across the globe.
Though while Kelce has jetted to Buenos Aires to watch his girlfriend’s concert and to New York to visit her in Tribeca, it’s Swift who has been travelling most to watch him in action for Kansas City.
The source described her as being ‘the one bending over backwards’ to make the relationship work, which is starting to take its toll with the honeymoon period now over.
Travis and Taylor are also reportedly clashing over work commitments, with a ‘teary-eyed’ Swift forced to take a backseat while her boyfriend’s focus was purely on football.
Things are said to get heated between them given their respective schedules, which works both ways with Swift also realizing that her career comes first.
Her introduction to the Kelce family has not been completely smooth, either.
Travis’s brother Jason, and his wife Kylie, have apparently not made the singer feel too welcome and comments made to the media about their relationship have upset Swift, according to the bombshell report.

Jason and Kylie, who have been more reserved in the spotlight than Travis and his girlfriend, are also said to have not given Swift the warmest of welcomes
In November, before Jason’s Philadelphia Eagles team played the Chiefs in Kansas City, Kylie Kelce gave an interview saying that the spotlight ‘is not particularly my cup of tea’ and that she prefers to watch games from the stands rather than the luxury suits from where Swift cheers the Chiefs.
Swift has met Kelce’s parents – mom Donna and father Ed – but so far, there have been no pictures of her meeting with Jason, who Travis is extremely close to, or Kylie.
Life and Style quoted a source as saying: ‘Taylor hasn’t had the best reception from Jason and his wife.’
Kylie’s quotes about the spotlight particularly irked Swift, with the source adding: ‘Taylor took that personally and since then it’s been very awkward.’
Unlike his brother, Travis has ambitions to reach superstardom – setting his sights on being as famous as Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson – and has even hired five agents in a bid to boost his career and make himself a movie star, his managers recently revealed.
This has led to concerns that he has merely been using Swift to help him on that quest, although she doesn’t believe that is the case herself. ‘She hates that it’s given people ammunition to use against them,’ the source said.
The Kansas City Chiefs star and twin brothers André and Aaron Eanes, teamed up way back when Travis was still a student at the University of Cincinnati.

The NFL star is reportedly aiming to be as famous as wrestling legend and actor Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson
On a trip to Los Angeles in 2022 the trio drove past a massive billboard of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Kelce said ‘Man, I don’t think I’ll ever be as famous as the Rock,’ his managers revealed.
The twins looked at each other and said: ‘Yes you can.’ Kelce’s plan worked and his 2023 was a year to be envied after he became known as ‘Mr Taylor Swift’.
The 34-year-old Eanes brothers tactically curated a business plan to put Kelce on the map both on the pitch and off.
The football player starred in seven national television commercials, hosted SNL, launched a clothing line alongside his team and co-hosts a podcast with his brother – Eagles-player Jason Kelce.
While dating the world’s biggest popstar was not necessarily part of the plan, it has certainly helped.
Since dating Swift – Kelce has been exposed to a whole new demographic.
