The couple have supported each other during performances and football games throughout the year.

Kelce spent the off-season traveling Europe watching Swift perform on her record-breaking "Eras Tour."

Swift has been a supportive girlfriend towards Kelce, being his biggest cheerleader at several games throughout last season.

The "Shake It Off" singer was first spotted at Arrowhead Stadium during week 3 of the NFL season, when the Chiefs defeated the Chicago Bears.

In an interview with Time last year, Swift disclosed the timeline of their relationship, admitting she and Kelce were already dating when the cameras caught her supporting him.

"By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple," Swift explained. "I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date."

Cameras cut to Swift a significant number of times during Kelce's games.

Swift was previously accompanied by several of her famous friends at the sporting events, including Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, Sabrina Carpenter and Sophie Turner.

During the games, she was also observed socializing with Brittany Mahomes, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' wife, and Kelce's parents.
