The reason for Travis Kelce missing Taylor Swift’s Madrid ‘Eras Tour’ shows has been revealed

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift just might be the world’s most supportive partners to each other. No matter how busy they are—and the power couple certainly has their hands full with football games, film projects, concert tours, etc.—they always make time to cheer each other on from the sidelines.

Unfortunately, though, Kelce has had to miss a few of Swift’s The Eras Tour European shows after catching her performance in Paris and enjoying an “unbelievable” romantic getaway in Lake Como. The football player/podcaster/TV host/actor/fashion aficionado, however, has a good reason for staying Stateside while Swift jets across Europe.

Kelce missed Swift’s Sweden, Portugal, and, most recently, Madrid shows as he’s in the U.S. for a very important event: Kelce, along with his Kansas City Chiefs teammates, are heading to the White House today to meet President Joe Biden and celebrate their Super Bowl victory from earlier this year.

Not to mention, Kelce and his teammate and friend Patrick Mahomes participated in a voluntary Chiefs OTA (which stands for organized team activity that takes place during the NFL off-season) on Thursday, as seen in a video shared to X by sports reporter Aaron Ladd.

As mentioned earlier, Kelce aptly attended Swift’s 87th show in Paris alongside her good friend Gigi Hadid and her boyfriend Bradley Cooper. The trio was captured dancing along to Swift’s song “Blank Space” in a viral video. During the May 15 episode of his and older brother Jason Kelce’s podcast New Heights, Kelce spoke about hanging out with Hadid and Cooper during the show. “I got to see Gigi and Bradley,” he said. “Bradley Cooper, man. B.C., Big Coop. We were all in the suite having a blast. They’re amazing.”

Kelce added that “it was an all-around lovely night.”

“I don’t know if they’re just getting better or if I just keep forgetting how they are,” Kelce gushed. “It was electric.”
