As Taylor Swift kicks off her “Eras Tour” in Europe, the Kansas City Chiefs’ star tight end, Travis Kelce, is proving that distance won’t deter him from showering his affection on the pop icon. With Swift lighting up the stage in Paris, Kelce didn’t miss the chance to spoil his girlfriend, reportedly splurging on Paris-themed gifts worth over $17,000.
A Parisian Shopping Spree
The NFL star went all out, according to a report by The Sun, beginning with a luxurious 2.55 Chanel handbag. Priced at just under $12,000 on Chanel’s website, this coveted accessory, made of aged calfskin and pictured in navy blue, epitomizes French elegance.
Kelce didn’t stop there. He also indulged Swift’s sweet tooth with macarons from the acclaimed Maison Pierre Hermé, spending $736 on the delicate French treats. For a stylish twist, he gifted her Chanel sunglasses, which set him back another $1,870.
No romantic gesture would be complete without flowers, and Kelce turned to Parisian florist Rene Veyrat, spending over $3,000 on a combination of white orchids ($2,050) and 100 red roses ($1,100).
Travis Kelce From Failed Gift to Blossoming Love
Ironically, this generous spree began with a failed attempt. In July 2023, Kelce tried to gift Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number during her “Eras Tour” concert at Arrowhead Stadium. While the bracelet never made it to Swift’s wrist, she later heard about it through the “New Heights” podcast, found the gesture endearing, and gave Kelce a shot.
Their relationship became public when Swift appeared at the Chiefs vs. Bears game on September 24, 2023, . She confirmed the romance in an interview with Time, and since then, the couple has been inseparable, supporting each other’s careers in both football and music.

Travis Kelce Balancing Love and Stardom
Although Kelce is busy filming Ryan Murphy’s upcoming TV series “Grotesquerie” in Los Angeles, he ensures that his relationship with Swift remains a priority. Despite his filming schedule, he has been spotted at multiple “Eras Tour” concerts, accompanying Swift on her journey.
For now, though, Kelce won’t be joining her in Paris. Instead, he’s channeling his affection through these extravagant gifts that align perfectly with the magic of the “City of Love.”
A Star-Studded Cast
In “Grotesquerie,” Kelce will share the screen with an all-star cast, including Lesley Manville, Courtney B. Vance, and Niecy Nash-Betts. Nash-Betts was the one who broke the news of Kelce’s involvement in the series via her Instagram story, featuring the Super Bowl Champion in a triumphant post.
In the world of entertainment, where schedules are hectic and commitments relentless, it’s clear that this NFL star has found a way to strike the perfect balance between his career and his blossoming love life. And with the “Eras Tour” electrifying audiences in Europe, Swift can rest assured that Kelce’s affection knows no bounds.
