Taylor Swift’s best friend discovers singer’s date night with boyfriend Travis Kelce wasn’t so romantic

A joyful birthday celebration in New York City

Taylor Swift joined her longtime friend, stylist Ashley Avignone, for a joyful birthday celebration in New York City, sharing a heartfelt moment during a memorable evening. Avignone shared a photo on Instagram on Sunday, showing Swift embracing her in front of a playful cake decorated with the words, “Ash is 25 (again).”

The designer captioned her post, “Happy birthday to me, emphasis on the happy,” alongside a series of images, including a snapshot of her making a wish before blowing out her candle.

According to People, the celebration took place on Saturday evening at the exclusive members-only club Chez Margaux in the Meatpacking District.

Spotted with Kelce

Swift arrived at the party alongside her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce. The couple was spotted walking hand-in-hand to the event, turning heads with their chic ensembles.

Swift dazzled in a black mini dress paired with a long black coat and Louis Vuitton platform heels. Kelce complemented her look with a red denim set and a crisp white T-shirt.

The glamorous outing followed a double date on Friday with friends Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley at BondST, a trendy restaurant in Midtown Manhattan.

The couple took advantage of Kelce’s rare downtime, as the Chiefs don’t play until January 5 against the Denver Broncos. An insider shared with Page Six that Kelce and Swift planned to spend quality time together in New York over the weekend, with Kelce not needing to report to practice until Monday.

“Taylor was feeling burnt out after a year and a half of touring. She’s definitely looking forward to some relaxation,” a source close to the star revealed.

Another insider hinted at a shift in Swift’s lifestyle, calling it her “domestic era.” Swift is reportedly planning to make Nashville her primary home base, a move that brings her closer to Kelce in Kansas City and allows her to spend more time with her family.

“It looks like Taylor is going to make Nashville more of a home base than LA or NY,” the source explained. “Her mom, Andrea, loves Nashville, too.”
