Is the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift relationship about to go international this week? Fans will have to wait and see.
The Chiefs are playing across the pond this week, as Kelce and Co. are facing the Dolphins in Frankfurt, Germany as a part of the 2023 NFL international series. It is the first of two games that will be played at Deutsche Bank Stadium this month.

Kansas City is coming off Patrick Mahomes’ first loss to Denver, as the Broncos snapped a 16-game losing streak with their 24-9 win over the Chiefs. Mahomes, Kelce and the offense were held out of the end zone for the first time this season, dropping the team’s record to 6-2. After back-to-back showings in Weeks 6 and 7, Swift was not in attendance to watch her love interest in Denver last week
Was it strictly a coincidence that the Chiefs did not perform well without the star in the crowd? Probably, but Kansas City is going to have to get used to playing without the presence of one of the most influential figures in the music world. Swift is set to return to her tour soon, and Sunday’s game in Germany is likely one of the last chances that she will get to watch her beau ball out on the football field.

The Sporting News has the latest news on if Swift will be at Chiefs vs. Dolphins.
It is unclear if Swift will be at the Chiefs vs. Dolphins game. However, considering it is being played in Germany, plus how soon the singer will begin touring again, it seems unlikely that she’ll grab her passport and make the trip to watch Kelce.
In addition, Swift was seen out on Saturday night in New York City with Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs star QB Patrick Mahomes, and other A-list celebrities. That doesn’t necessarily rule her out of attending the game, but it certainly does not seem like something a party would do less than 12 hours before a game that’s over 3,800 miles away.

The man himself didn’t shed any light on the situation Friday, declining to address Swift’s status for the game when speaking to reporters.

“When I mention or everybody knows that she\u2019s at the game, the Vegas, the over-under on my catches kind of goes up and down, the spread goes up and down,” Kelce said, via the Associated Press<\/a>. “I don\u2019t want to mess with any of that stuff, so I\u2019m just going to keep it to myself.”
The Chiefs-Broncos game last week marked only the second time Swift has not appeared at one of Kelce’s games since making her debut appearance in Kansas City in Week 3. She did not travel to Minnesota to watch the Chiefs play the Vikings in Week 5, nor did she go to Denver in Week 8 for the Chiefs game against the Broncos.
The 33-year-old music star has frequented Kansas City games this season, but all have either been home games for the Chiefs, or the games have been played in locations where Swift has a residence nearby.
Of the four contests she has attended, three have been at Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Chiefs. The lone Chiefs away game Swift was at came in Week 4 when the Jets hosted Kelce and Kansas City on “Sunday Night Football” at MetLife Stadium. Swift has a house in New York, making it a convenient location for the primetime game.

The Chiefs vs. Dolphins game is the last game on Kansas City’s schedule before Swift returns to her “Eras Tour”. The international leg of Swift’s tour is set to kick off Nov. 9 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
