Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s romance has captivated both stars and fans alike, with their love story taking center stage. From the beginnings during the Eras Tour, their relationship quickly transitioned into the NFL spotlight and became fodder for tabloid gossip. Now, as they continue to make headlines with their romantic getaways and grand gestures, it is evident that they are in the throes of a passionate romance.

During the latest episode of the New Heights podcast with Lil Dicky, when the conversation veered towards Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s widely-discussed love story, the rapper could not help but express admiration. Lil Dicky likened the news of their romance to a scenario reminiscent of “high school”, where the most popular musician and athlete somehow come together and fall in love. While Kelce did appreciate the sentiment, he chuckled and admitted that he still does not quite understand how he pulled it off.

Especially considering Swift’s lack of interest in matters of sports, Kelce stressed, “I don’t know how the f**k I did it”. However, Lil Dicky jumped in to remind him of the moment he first "called her out on” by attempting to exchange numbers at Arrowhead Stadium, prompting Kelce to blush and laugh as he quickly retorted, "No, I remember exactly how I did it." Therefore, it is safe to say that despite their romance flourishing, Kelce still finds himself in disbelief, pinching himself twice daily to make sure it is real just in case.

The relationship between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift is not the only thing soaring to new heights; their involvement is also uniting their respective fan bases. In the same podcast episode, Jason Kelce informed Lil Dicky about the influx of new fans, dubbed "Swifties," to their podcast. In response, the rapper questioned the brothers about how they were handling the added attention, to which the Chiefs' tight end responded with delight.

Kelce expressed how enjoyable it has been to witness this phenomenon and how he is truly "having a blast in life." He elaborated on how it has allowed him to introduce new audiences to the football world while also broadening the horizons of football fans. This sentiment of mutual appreciation was already in view when Jason Kelce's retirement speech garnered overwhelming attention from Swifties. But with his acknowledgment, Kelce has now solidified his place in a renewed way on their favorite list alongside Taylor Swift, despite his disbelief on how he pulled off the romantic tale with her.
