A complete timeline of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship
It began as a failed backstage meeting attempt and has blossomed into the celeb world's most captivating Love Story. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce 's paths collided in July 2023 when the NFL star attended her Eras Tour, carrying a friendship bracelet bearing his phone number. And since they publicly confirmed their relationship, fans haven't been able to get enough content. From Super Bowl celebrations and tennis-match PDA to lyric changes and podcast appearances, this timeline chronicles every milestone in their whirlwind courtship. Honestly, it's Sweeter Than Fiction… 8th July, 2023: Kelce attends the US leg of Swift's record-breaking Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium, the home of his team, the Kansas City Chiefs. Football-loving Swifties film him watching the show from a private box and trading friendship bracelets with fans. 26th July, 2023: Kelce reveals on New Heights podcast – which he hosts with his brother – that he tried and failed to meet Swift after the show. 'I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,' he said. 'So I was a little butt-hurt I didn't get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.' He then explains he'd made a special friendship bracelet – fans trade them at her shows, referencing a lyric from her track You're On Your Own Kid – with his number on it, but hadn't been able to give it to her. 'She doesn't meet anybody, or at least she didn't want to meet me, so I took it personal,' he says. 21st September, 2023: After growing rumours about a blossoming romance, Kelce appears on The Pat McAfee Show and reveals he invited Swift to watch him play. 'I threw the ball in her court,' he says, adding: 'I told her, 'I've seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead.' We'll see what happens in the near future.' 24th September, 2023: Swift very publicly confirms her interest, making a surprise appearance at the Kansas City v Chicago Bears game. She watches from a private box with Kelce's mother, Donna, and friends, and is seen cheering as Kelce scores a touchdown. The two leave the stadium together, with TMZ catching (now iconic) snaps of them in an open-top convertible. Very cool. 26th September, 2023: Travis and Jason Kelce reflect on Swift's appearance on their podcast, with Travis saying: 'Shout out to Taylor for pulling up! That was pretty ballsy, yeah. I just thought it was awesome how everybody in the suite had nothing but great things to say about her, the friends and family – she looked amazing. Everybody was talking about her in great light and on top of that, the day went perfect for Chiefs fans, of course.' 'It was definitely a game I'll remember, that's for sure,' he says. 'Then we just slid off in the getaway car at the end. Took my Chevelle to the game.' 1st October, 2023: Swift once again turns up to support Kelce, this time at the Chiefs v New York Jets game at MetLife Stadium, NYC. She even brought her famous besties Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds along. 15th October, 2023: After a busy month with the Eras Tour premiere and more football game appearances, Swift and Kelce confirm their relationship by arriving hand in hand at the Saturday Night Live after party. Page Six also obtains snaps of their pre-show dinner at Nobu in NYC, which show the couple looking very cosy and even holding hands. Nawww. 23rd October, 2023: The couple go Instagram official (well, kind of) when Chariah Gordon, girlfriend of Chiefs player Mecole Hardman, shares a snap of Swift planting a kiss on Kelce's cheek. 11th November, 2023: Swift heads back on tour, and Kelce turns out to support her in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He's filmed dancing with Swift's dad, Scott, by his side, and even takes Swift for a fancy dinner at the Four Seasons the day before her concert. But in the final act of the concert things got really juicy. Swift changes the lyrics of her song to: 'Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me,' (previously the lyrics talked of 'the guy on the screen') which elicits absolute mania from fans. She's then videoed running backstage after the show straight into Kelce's arms, and giving him a huge kiss, too. KARMA IS THE GUY ON THE CHIEFS!!!!

'There were definitely people she knew that knew who I was. I had somebody playing Cupid,' he says. He adds the duo have bonded over their love for family. 'Everybody knows I'm a family guy,' he says. 'Her team is her family. Her family does a lot of stuff in terms of the tour, the marketing, being around, so I think she has a lot of those values as well, which is right up my alley.' 1st December, 2023: Kelce and Swift get in the Christmas spirit by attending a pop-up bar with Kelce's teammate, Patrick Mahomes, and his partner, Brittany. 6th December, 2023: Swift opens up about her relationship with Kelce for the first time, in her Time Person of the Year profile. 'It all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast,' she says, 'which I thought was metal as hell.' 'We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I'm grateful for, because we got to get to know each other.' She also clarified they were already a couple by the time she attended her first Chiefs game, adding: '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.' 25th December, 2023: On Christmas Day, Swift, her mum Andrea, and dad Scott all attend the Kansas City Chiefs v Las Vegas Raiders match. Following the game, the couple leave the stadium hand-in-hand. 31st December, 2023: The pair ring in the new year together at a Kansas City party. A clip shared on X shows them sharing a midnight kiss. 21st January, 2024: Swift finally meets Jason Kelce, Travis's brother, when they support the Chiefs at the Playoffs. 'Tay said she absolutely loved you,' Travis later tells Jason on their podcast. 'I'm not going to lie, I gave Kylie a heads-up,' Jason says. 'The moment we get into the suite, I said, 'I'm taking my shirt off and jumping out of that suite.' And she said, 'Jason don't you dare.'' 'She was already telling me to be on my best behavior 'cause we were meeting Taylor, so she's like, 'Do not. Be on your best behavior.' 'I was like, 'Kylie, the first day I met you I was blackout drunk and fell asleep at the bar. This is part of the charm. This is part of the Jason Kelce charm. I wanna make my best first impression.'' 28th January, 2024: Swift rushes onto the field to congratulate Kelce after the Chiefs secured their spot in the Super Bowl, and is spotted whispering to her boyfriend as the team celebrates.

She and her entourage – including Blake Lively, Ice Spice and Lana Del Rey – cheer the Chiefs on to win the biggest prize in American football.

Kelce later said on New Heights: 'Our guy Jack Antonoff absolutely ripped it.' 'I like to see it from the fans' perspective, 'cause I am, I'm a fan of music,' he said of why the pair didn't watch all performances from the wings. 'I want to see it from the front of the stage … I think it's that much more of an experience if you're in the pit, if you're in the madness with all the fans.' 19th April, 2024: Swift drops her 11th album, The Tortured Poets Department, and one song in particular, The Alchemy, seems to be about her beau Kelce. In an apparent reference to the Super Bowl win she says: 'Shirts off and your friends lift you up over their heads/ Beer sticking to the floor, cheers chanted 'cause they said/ There was no chance trying to be the greatest in the league/ Where's the trophy? He just comes running over to me.' 27th April, 2024: While auctioning off four Eras Tour tickets on behalf of Swift at the 15 and The Mahomies Foundation gala, Kelce refers to Swift as his 'significant other'.

'Whenever I'm with her, it feels like we're just regular people,' he says. 'When there is not a camera on us, we're just two people that are in love. It can be perceived as something else because of how much it is talked about and how much we are tracked whenever we do go out, but I would say that... it happened very organically, even though from a media standpoint it was being tracked. It still happened very organically.' 'Nothing I've ever done has been a controlled, organised process. When I say it was so organic, we fell in love just based off the people we were sitting in a room together with. We are two fun-loving people who have the morals to appreciate everyone for who they are. We share all those values. It kind of just took the f*** off.' 13th August, 2025: Swift and Kelce are literal couple goals on the newly released New Heights episode, which becomes the most-listened-to podcast within 24 hours ever.

'This felt more like I was in an 80s John Hughes movie,' Swift says, 'and he was just standing outside of my window with a boombox being like, 'I want to date you! Do you want to go on a date with me? I made you a friendship bracelet'' 'I was like, 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.'

Queen Camilla wipes away tear as veteran pays tribute to King's cancer battle
Queen Camilla was visibly moved at a VJ Day memorial ceremony on Friday as a 105-year-old war veteran paid an emotional, unscheduled tribute to King Charles's ongoing cancer treatment. The King and Queen joined Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and 33 veterans, aged between 96 and 105, who served in the Far East and Pacific. The national service of remembrance, held at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire, marked the 80th anniversary of VJ Day on August 15, commemorating the end of the six-year war. Often overshadowed by VE Day in May 1945, this significant date serves as a poignant reminder for those who served in the Far East, historically labelled "The Forgotten Army". Yavar Abbas, a former captain in the 11th Sikh Regiment, took to the stage. While scheduled to read extracts from his 1945 Burma diaries, Mr Abbas, originally from Lucknow in India, paused his prepared remarks to address the monarch directly. "I make no apologies for briefly going off the script to salute my brave king, who is here with his beloved queen in spite of the fact that he is under treatment for cancer," the centenarian declared. Camilla looked at her husband sitting next to her and appeared to wipe away a tear. Applause also erupted from the crowd of around 1,500 guests. Mr Abbas, who has battled cancer, added that he hoped his own 25-year remission from the disease would bring "comfort" to the King, offering a shared understanding of the health challenges faced. He added: 'I salute him for gracing this occasion, because by his presence here, he has gone a long way to make sure that his grandad's 14th Army is never given the sobriquet again of The Forgotten Army.' The ceremony was hosted by actress Celia Imrie and featured readings by actor Robert Lindsay and veterans, as well as musical performances from the National Children's Choir of Great Britain, Jennifer Pike and the Royal Corps of Signals Pipes and Drums. Ahead of the service, the King, in a pre-recorded audio address to the nation, vowed that the sacrifice of heroes who fought and died in the campaigns 'shall never be forgotten'. He also significantly acknowledged the devastation caused by the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki which led to Japan's surrender, describing the 'immense price' paid by its citizens as one 'we pray no nation need ever pay again'. He said: 'Please know that the courage and camaraderie displayed in humanity's darkest hour is a flame that shall blaze for eternity – a beacon that honours our past and guides our future.' After the service of remembrance, which started with a two-minute silence and a Red Arrows flypast, the King made his way to the Far East corner of the arboretum, where he met Silas Sarbah and Khadak Chettri, the grandsons of Second World War soldiers, as well as William Slim, the great-grandson of General Bill Slim, who led the so-called Forgotten Army. He viewed tributes at the Burma Railway memorial, which is constructed from 30 metres of original track from the so-called 'Railway of Death', and took a moment of reflection at the Burma Star Memorial and the Chindit Memorial, before heading to a reception for VJ veterans and their families. The King and Queen were joined by the Prime Minister and Lady Starmer, as they met some 30 veterans who served in the Far East during the Second World War for the British and Commonwealth Armed Forces, accompanied by their families and carers.
