This is the height of it…See what Chiefs Travis Kelce said to his mother, Donna Kelce, that left her with teary eyes…See the reactions of fans
Travis Kelce has reportedly splashed out over $30,000 on flowers for Taylor Swift to mark the end of the European leg of her Eras Tour.
The singer returned to London’s Wembley Stadium for five performances of her smash-hit tour following the cancellation of shows in Vienna, when a planned terrorist attack was foiled by authorities.
Swift now has no shows on her schedule until the Eras Tour, which has surpassed $1billion in revenue, returns to the United States in October and ends in Canada in December.
But Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs star who is preparing to try and win a third-straight Super Bowl, went all out to treat his girlfriend and celebrate her latest milestone.
According to The Sun, Kelce ordered a huge 51 boxes of red roses that will greet his girlfriend when she returns to the US this week.
The number is poignant because it marks the number of shows she’s performed on the road.
It’s claimed Kelce went for a ‘deluxe’ arrangement – which is priced at a whopping $616 a box. That comes in at a total spend of $31,416.
‘They love numbers,’ an insider said. ‘They pay attention to ones that mean something to them both.’
It’s also claimed Travis left a note on the gift, which read: ‘Making history, congratulations, legend. Enjoy tonight as if it was the first concert ever. It will be another unbelievable show!’
A report emerged last week that said Kelce and Swift have found ways to ‘prioritize’ each other despite their hectic schedules and being in different countries for a lot of their relationship.
‘Taylor and Travis always prioritize each other even when they are physically apart. They are still in constant communication texting and FaceTiming each other,’ per ET.
Swift and Kelce are ‘very affectionate with each other even when they’re apart,’ added ET, with the Chief showing his affection for the ‘Anti-Hero’ singer through lavish gifts.
Travis sends Taylor flowers and loves to shower her with surprise gifts and tokens of gratitude,’ ET adds. ‘Their connection is unlike anything that they’ve ever experienced before.’
The couple are set to be reunited in the coming days as the new NFL season draws closer.
The NFL season starts on September 5 with the Chiefs hosting the Baltimore Ravens at Arrowhead Stadium in a blockbuster curtain-raiser where Swift’s attendance is anticipated given that her touring calendar clear.
A report in Life and Style earlier this month claimed the singer is now set to make Kansas City a home base while Kelce and the Chiefs compete for their third straight Super Bowl.
A source was quoted as saying: ‘She’s had the time of her life performing all over the world but is looking forward to just nesting during her tour’s two-month hiatus.
She can’t wait to root Travis on at Kansas City Chiefs home games and really focus on him without having one foot out the door.
‘He has done what he can to make his house feel like home to her — even upgrading the kitchen because she loves to cook for him and their friends.
‘Friends say this downtime is exactly what Taylor needs and won’t be surprised if it leads up to a wedding.’
