Who is Travis Kelce, groom of Taylor Swift who will be NFL attraction in Brazil

Travis Kelce is not just Taylor Swift’s groom, but one of the most influential names in football. Kansas City Chiefs idol, the 34 -year -old has already won three Super Bowl titles and has consolidated himself as one of the biggest attackers of the National Football League (NFL).

The athlete’s career began in 2013, in the chiefs, and since then he has built a trajectory marked by impressive numbers. Among them, seven straight seasons surpassing the thousand yard mark, plus ten prove to the Pro Bowl. Its importance is such that it was included in the official selection of the 2010 decade of the League.

Born on October 5, 1989, in Ohio (USA), Travis Michael Kelce is today more than a reference in the lawns. Out of sport, he became a media figure, partly thanks to the success of the “New Heights” podcast, which presents alongside brother Jason Kelce, former Philadelphia Eagles player. The program mixes football analyzes with behind -the -scenes moments and jokes between the two, and is a success in the US.

The highlight on and off the field is also reflected in its fortune. According to vehicles such as Page Six and Financial Express, Kelce’s net worth turns between US $ 70 million and US $ 90 million (about R $ 614 million to R $ 790 million). His current contract with the Chiefs, signed in 2023, is valued at $ 17 million annually, which placed it among the highest paid players of the position.

But it was in 2023 that Kelce’s personal life came to take up even more space in the spotlight. That’s because he publicly took over his relationship with Taylor Swift after revealing in his podcast that he had tried to pass her phone number to the singer in a friendship bracelet during a “The Eras Tour” concert. Shortly thereafter, the two began to appear together in NFL games, with Taylor attending the stands.

Pop artist’s participation in the games has helped bring two distinct worlds closer – music and football – attracting new fans to the league. Swift’s presence became a separate event, moving social networks and even the audience of the transmissions.

Travis also returned the partnership: In November 2023, he was in Buenos Aires to watch a girlfriend show, when she surprised to change the lyrics of “Karma” to refer to him: “Karma is the guy of Chiefs.”

The relationship between the two narrowed to the point of Taylor choosing just “New Heights” to announce his new album, “The Life of A Showgirl”, which will be released in October this year.

Now the eyes turn to Brazil. Travis Kelce will be one of the great attractions of the opening of NFL season 2025, scheduled for September 5 at the Neo Chemistry Arena in São Paulo. Chiefs will face Los Angeles Chargers in the game that marks the official debut of the league in the country.

In recent interviews, Kelce said she was excited about the opportunity to play in front of the Brazilian fans, although she admits that she cares about the warm and humid climate of the state capital. Among Taylor’s fans, the expectation is that the singer accompanies the groom at the stadium, repeating the ritual that became tradition during the last season.
