Travis Kelce consoles teary-eyed Taylor Swift after she opens up about getting her masters back: 'This will affect the rest of my life'
Emotional Taylor Swift opens up about regaining masters as Travis Kelce offers heartfelt comfort (YouTube/New Heights Podcast) Taylor Swift has opened up about one of the most life-changing moments of her career during an appearance on the New Heights podcast — the day she got her masters back. Speaking with raw honesty, she recalled the overwhelming emotions tied to reclaiming her music, music videos, and album artwork, crediting her mother and brother for their tireless efforts in making it happen. Taylor Swift recalls telling Travis Kelce about her life-changing news Taylor Swift painted a vivid picture of the moment she broke the news to Travis Kelce. 'I was weeping, like 'Really? Really, what do you mean?'' she shared. She even laughed at herself for trying to act composed, recalling how she knocked on his door while he was playing video games. 'I'm like, 'TRAVIS…' He puts his headset down,' she said, describing the instant her emotions overflowed. The pop icon admitted she collapsed into tears, overcome by the significance of the moment. 'This will affect the rest of my life… Instead of it being an intrusive thought that hurts me, I'm like I can't believe this happened, how lucky am I?' Kelce didn't just listen — he shared in her tears. 'I started crying too, you know I'm a crier,' he confessed, with Swift confirming, 'You were weeping.' The Kansas City Chiefs star had previously praised her achievement on the June 4 episode of their podcast, saying, 'Just bought all of her music back so it's finally hers… Man, I appreciate that, dog.' For Swift, this wasn't just a career win — it was the reclamation of her life's work. Taylor Swift reveals Travis Kelce's 'wild romantic gesture' During her debut on Travis and Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast, the pop superstar revealed how a bold, almost outrageous gesture from the Kansas City Chiefs tight end set the stage for their romance. 'This podcast did a lot for me. I owe a lot to this podcast. This podcast got me a boyfriend,' she teased. Swift recalled how Kelce's first attempt to meet her during her Kansas City stop on the Eras Tour in 2023 didn't go as planned. 'He threw a tantrum. He threw a man-tantrum,' she laughed, calling his persistence 'such a wild romantic gesture' to declare he wanted to date her. He hadn't even contacted her team, she noted, instead arriving with Patrick Mahomes and trying to work his way backstage. 'He thought because he knows the elevator lady that he could talk to her about just getting down to my dressing room. That's how it works in 1973,' she joked. For Swift, the whole situation felt like something from an '80s John Hughes movie. 'He was just like standing outside my window with a boombox like, 'I want to date you!… I made you a friendship bracelet!'' Her turning point came with one thought: 'If this guy isn't crazy, which is a big if, this is sort of what I've been writing songs about wanting to happen to me since I was a teenager.'
