After the game, Kansas City Star photojournalist Nick Wagner shared a photo on his Instagram Story of the two holding hands while walking down an Arrowhead Stadium hallway. “Spent my Christmas waiting for these two lovebirds,” Wagner captioned the post.
Swift, 34, wore a black and gray plaid miniskirt, red sweater, black tights, her go-to black heeled loafers and a black bomber jacket. Meanwhile, Kelce, 34, wore a Chiefs letterman jacket and a cable white knit sweater with gray trousers.
During the Christmas Day game, the Raiders shocked the Chiefs by scoring on two Chiefs turnovers within a seven-second span in the first quarter. The Chiefs made it close in the end but were unable to make a complete comeback, falling to 9-6 on the season.
The sighting comes just days after Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes raved about Swift and her friendship with his wife, Brittany Mahomes, in an interview with CBS Mornings.
“She’s top-tier at her profession, and to see how she drives and she becomes that — Dude, it’s really cool to hear about and to see, and now I have a first-hand look at that through Brittany and Travis’ eyes,” Patrick said in the interview.
The two-time Super Bowl winner revealed that when Swift and Kelce first began dating, “everybody stayed away” and “just let [Kelce] do what he was doing.”
“Then, he started bringing Taylor around, and he realized how cool of a person she was, and she is, and so for us, there were a couple of jokes here and there at the beginning,” Patrick admitted.
