Oops, Travis Kelce will not be Taylor Swift‘s plus one for the 2025 Grammys. The vocalist will be riding it solo to the award ceremony without her beau by her side. Kelce’s confirmed absence comes days after the couple doused spectators with loads of PDA on AFC championship night.
The Sunday champion’s absence is probably due to one obvious factor — training with the team for the Superbowl. Kelce is reportedly getting in top shape for his encounter with the Philadelphia Eagles on football’s biggest night. His absence at the Grammys will make it that he has skipped the big night twice in a row. Last year, the Chiefs player was busy preparing for his team’s Superbowl match against the 49ers. His effort yielded a juicy fruit as he got to wear a championship ring.
Per TMZ, he also got to celebrate his win alongside his girl, who danced all night at the after-party. Kelce was disappointed he could not watch the billionaire clinch a few awards at the event in 2024. Well, it is about to be Dejavu, as Taylor is up for six awards and presenting one other. While there is a plausible reason for Kelce’s confirmed absence, internet users have chosen to go the conspiracy route.
“Trouble in paradise?!” an inquisitive commenter wrote. One concerned fan typed a lengthy paragraph wondering why the couple had not made a red carpet debut. They also questioned why Kelce flakes on her award show while Swift travels miles for his games.
Another spectator predicted that Swift may feel inspired to write a song about Kelce missing the Grammys. One person, still convinced its a PR relationship, wondered if the union had run its course. Another commenter added to the new song in the making claim. This user opined his absence may be linked to the “Justin Baldoni Blake lively thing.”
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s PDA Sesh at the AFC Championships Game Sparked Controversy
The “she ruined football” allegations came knocking again on that Sunday night. The power couple took things up a notch as they got hot and heavy right on the field. We covered that football fans have criticized their romance, seeing it as a distraction.
The drama started when the NFL posted two videos on its TikTok page. The videos showed Swift and Kelce celebrating after the game in the most romantic way possible. Swift could not keep her hands off the athlete’s face as she beamed with pride all night. The Kansas City Chiefs won the AFC Championship game against the Buffalo Bills with a score of 32-29.
This victory earned them a spot in the Super Bowl, a moment that Swift celebrated by kissing her man. Swift kept things chic in bright red leggings, black boots, and a black-and-gold hooded sweatshirt. The NFL star’s mom was also a proud witness to the show of love, and her body language agreed.
In one video, Swift kissed Kelce on the field and held him close, with her hands on his face. He smiled and returned the affection by squeezing her sides gently. The couple expressed their love in another post where they shared many hugs. They were happy as they greeted fans, holding each other closely.
Some lovers of the game soon expressed their displeasure at the publicity their romance was getting. A few wondered if Kelce was the only player in the NFL and clamored that other players be considered. A small fraction even hoped the star and Kelce would miss out on the Superbowl this time. Some fans also believe Kelce’s poor performance at the beginning of the season is due to the relationship.
