Travis Kelce will be conspicuous in his absence at Taylor Swift‘s final ever Eras Tour show in Vancouver tonight… but he has a very good excuse.
That is, of course, due to his own high-profile day job – as one of the NFL’s top tight ends for the Kansas City Chiefs.
This week’s schedule has thrown up a frustrating clash for one of the world’s most famous couples, with Kelce playing for the Chiefs against the LA Chargers at the exact same time his girlfriend takes to the stage for the final time on her tour.
Kelce has been to an incredible 14 of Swift’s Eras Tour shows, while she has seen him play football 19 times since their relationship began last year.
Sunday night will mark the first game Swift has missed at Arrowhead this season, too, after she made her way to Kansas City for the previous six.
Kelce will surely be devastated to miss such a big night for his other half, as the curtain falls on her sold-out tour show for the final time in Vancouver.
The Shake It Off songstress will play to a sold-out BC Place to mark the 149th date of the tour, playing in 53 cities around the world to over 10million fans.
The tour began in Glendale, Arizona in March 2023, before she had even met Kelce for the first time.
Since then, her life has changed dramatically and she ends her live shows with a long-term boyfriend in the form of one of the biggest football stars in the NFL.
The Eras Tour has made over $2billion in ticket sales, according to the BBC, while stimulating local economies along the way.
Swift is now expected to take some time away from the road, and her down-time is likely to involve some more Chiefs football to watch her man.
After the game against the Chargers in Kansas City, the Chiefs head to Cleveland next weekend – the city in which Kelce grew up.
After that, they host the Texans in their final home game of the regular season, before finishing with trips to Pittsburgh and Denver.
From there, Swift, Kelce and Co will hope for yet another Super Bowl run – as Andy Reid’s team go for the three-peat, with this season’s showpiece game taking place in New Orleans in February.
