Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce spared no expense when it came to celebrating his girlfriend Taylor Swift’s 35th birthday. Despite the already hefty price tag of the NFL star’s commitments, he reportedly spent a jaw-dropping $175,000 on lavish gifts for the pop sensation as a way to show his appreciation after what he described as an “intense” few months. The gifts came just ahead of the holiday season, but Kelce’s substantial bank balance will likely absorb the cost without issue.
The couple, who have been dating for over a year since first going public in September 2023, have grown closer during their relationship. Swift made her public debut with Kelce at a Kansas City Chiefs game, where she joined his mother, Donna, in the stands. Following that, the Grammy-winning singer became a regular fixture at Chiefs games, supporting Kelce throughout their successful run to a second consecutive Super Bowl win in Las Vegas.
The couple has also maintained a strong bond despite their busy schedules. Swift had been occupied with her nearly two-year-long “Eras Tour,” which kept her away from Kelce for extended periods. However, the NFL star reciprocated her commitment by attending several shows on her world tour, showing his support.
For Swift’s milestone birthday, Kelce made sure to go all out, including a massive floral gesture. He ordered five extravagant bouquets, one for each year of Swift’s life, from the luxury floral brand The Million Roses. The gift included 15 black heart boxes filled with red roses, each priced at $315, and 10 deluxe white boxes containing a mix of black and red roses for $880 per box. Additionally, Kelce splurged on 10 boxes of neon rose gold roses at $580 each, bringing the total for the flowers to an impressive $19,325.
But Kelce’s generosity didn’t stop with flowers. The three-time Super Bowl champion reportedly spent a further $155.2K on high-end jewelry from iconic brands like Tiffany & Co., Rolex, and Van Cleef & Arpels. Among the standout purchases was a rose gold Day-Date 36 Rolex, valued at over $60,000. Additionally, he gifted Swift a customized gold split cuff bracelet with a heart engraving from Tiffany & Co., which set him back $22,000. He also bought an Elsa Peretti open-heart bracelet for $25,000.
The grand gesture didn’t end there. Kelce surprised Swift with a stunning $35,500 Alhambra necklace, along with a matching $8,200 pendant and $4,100 earrings from the same luxury brand. These extravagant gifts, totaling nearly $200,000, underscored the depth of Kelce’s affection for the singer on her special day.
An insider revealed that the extravagant birthday presents came after an intense few months for the couple. Both have had demanding schedules, with Swift’s tour taking up much of her time. With the “Eras Tour” finally concluding, the couple is looking forward to enjoying a more relaxed and uninterrupted phase of their relationship.
While Kelce has been busy off the field making grand gestures for his girlfriend, he also remains laser-focused on his role as a key player for the Chiefs. The team, who have secured back-to-back NFL championships, is currently pursuing a historic third consecutive title. As of now, the Chiefs boast the best regular season record at 12-1, alongside the Detroit Lions, as they continue to battle for supremacy in the league.
Despite their strong performance, the Chiefs have faced challenges this season, particularly with key injuries. Star running back Isiah Pacheco is still recovering from a leg injury sustained in Week 2, and the offense has struggled to hit its stride. The team has only managed to score over 30 points twice this season, with much of the team’s success resting on the defense. Kelce, typically a dominant force on the field, has only scored two receiving touchdowns and just under 700 yards, signaling that the Chiefs’ offensive struggles have affected his usual performance.
Nevertheless, Kelce’s focus remains on the field as the Chiefs aim to add another Super Bowl title to their resume. After an intense few months on both the personal and professional fronts, Kelce continues to balance his high-profile relationship with his demanding NFL career. With the holiday season approaching, it’s clear that Kelce’s lavish gesture toward Swift is just one of many ways he shows his commitment, both on and off the field.
