Travis Kelce's posts first Instagram photos of Taylor Swift to delight of fans
The Kansas City Chiefs star sent fans into a frenzy after he shared multiple photos of him and Swift together to his Instagram, marking their official debut on his social media pages.
'Had some adventures this offseason, kept it 100,' the NFL star, who's been dating Swift since at least September 2023, captioned the Thursday slideshow.
The first photo features Kelce and Swift in white and cream attire. The football star holds the rim of his 'Captain' hat, while Swift points to hers that reads, 'First mate.'
In another photo, the pair match in black at a restaurant. The snap had some eagle-eyed fans zooming in on the athlete's phone, which appeared to have a photo of the couple set as its screensaver.
(Even 'Shark Tank' star Barbara Corcoran commented, 'Me looking at Travis' phone background,' adding a magnifying glass and detective emoji.)
The couple are also seen enjoying a snowy setting together with friends Erin Andrews and her husband, Jarret Stoll, as well as Steven Cundari and Charissa Thompson.
The sweet pictures continue with more group photos and Kelce and Swift ice skating.
Fans couldn't get enough of the snaps of Swift that he shared.
'We've been waiting our whole lives for this content!!!!!' one person wrote, with another adding, 'This feels like my wedding day.'
'THE COUPLE PHOTO DUMP WE HAVE BEEN NEEDING,' someone commented.
'Is it weird if I save this post for when I need a dopamine hit?' another wrote.
Some also noticed the number of photos that were included in the post, writing, 'Of course it's 13 pictures,' and '13 pictures?! We see you Travis,' referring to Swift's lucky number.
Kelce and Swift have been dating for around two years, yet do not regularly share photos together on their social media. Swift has included peeks of Kelce on her TikTok — but it's rare.
However, Kelce isn't shy about talking about his famous girlfriend during his 'New Heights' podcast.
Kelce's post notably comes amid a seemingly more relaxed time of year for the record-setting couple. Since Swift ended her 'Eras Tour' on Dec. 8, 2024, she's had much to celebrate, including buying back her masters and officially owning all her music.
As for Kelce, earlier this year, he confirmed that he would be returning to the Chiefs for another season after losing the 2025 NFL championship to the Philadelphia Eagles. Kelce's 13th season with the Chiefs is set to officially start in September.

'Happy Gilmore 2': The wildest celebrity cameos, from Travis Kelce to Ken Jennings
Spoiler alert! We're discussing major plot details from the sequel 'Happy Gilmore 2' (streaming now on Netflix). It's all in the hips. Adam Sandler's oafish pro golfer is back on screen for the first time in nearly 30 years, in a new movie that follows the titular Happy Gilmore as he attempts to get back in the game and raise his five kids after the death of wife Virginia (Julie Bowen) in a hurtling golf ball accident. Christopher McDonald, as Happy's nemesis Scooter McGavin, and Ben Stiller, as abusive orderly Hal L, have also returned. Here are some of the most memorable A-list appearances from actors, musicians and athletes throughout the new movie: Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox Bad Bunny The Puerto Rican hitmaker continues to make inroads into acting, after 2022's 'Bullet Train' and Darren Aronofsky's 'Caught Stealing' (in theaters Aug. 29). Here, he plays Oscar, a good-natured busboy-turned-caddie for Happy. Benny Safdie After co-directing Sandler in 2019's nail-biting 'Uncut Gems,' Safdie chews the scenery as main antagonist Frank Manatee, the conniving owner of a sports drink company. Travis Kelce The Kansas City Chiefs tight end (and beau to Taylor Swift) makes an amusing cameo as a strict restaurant manager, whom Oscar dreams of covering in honey and feeding to a bear. Please Don't Destroy The 'Saturday Night Live' viral sketch trio appears throughout the movie: Martin Herlihy, who is also the son of the film's co-writer, Tim Herlihy, plays an amateur golfer who mercilessly taunts Happy when he comes out of retirement. Ben Marshall and John Higgins also make blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameos as irreverent, shirtless spectators during a game. Eric André and Margaret Qualley Like Herlihy, the stand-up comedian and 'The Substance' actress pop in as unimpressed putters who fall victim to a fiery golf cart crash at the hands of the inebriated Happy. Eminem, Post Malone and Kid Cudi The rappers all have small but memorable roles in the new film: Eminem, as a bearded heckler named Donald Jr.; Malone, as outlandish golf commentator DJ Omar Gosh; and Cudi, as an FBI agent who apprehends Stiller's character at the end of the movie. Guy Fieri The 'Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives' favorite drops in late in the movie as a golf tournament official who gets the crowd fired up. Haley Joel Osment The Oscar-nominated child star, best known for 'The Sixth Sense' and 'A.I. Artificial Intelligence,' has a substantial supporting role as Happy's cocky golf rival Billy Jenkins. Steve Buscemi The Hollywood veteran has appeared in many of Sandler's movies, including 'The Wedding Singer' and 'Billy Madison,' and has a minor part here as Happy's eccentric neighbor. Ken Jennings The 'Jeopardy!' host plays himself at the start of the film, as a long-retired Happy is distressed to learn that none of the game show's contestants have any idea who he is. Sean Evans from 'Hot Ones' Frank Manatee goes on a promotional tour in support of his sports drink brand, which includes an interview with celebrity wings master Evans, as well as real-life podcasters Bobby Lee and Alix Earle.

Mom Wakes Up at 5:30AM, Unprepared for Who's by Her Bed
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A U.K. mom was fast asleep when she heard a mysterious munching sound coming from her bedside. Kenzie (@kenziecleankids2) posted a clip on TikTok of her bed covers, lit up by her phone camera in the early hours of the morning. "I woke up at 5:30 a.m. to a loud noise—I thought it was an animal at first," Kenzie told Newsweek. Kenzie's white bedsheets are lit up by her cellphone camera in the early hours of the morning. Kenzie's white bedsheets are lit up by her cellphone camera in the early hours of the morning. @kenziecleankids2 But when Kenzie pans the camera, the real culprit is revealed: her almost-3-year-old daughter, Ava Mae, casually sitting beside the bed, chomping loudly on a bag of Butterkist popcorn while watching her iPad. "I was so shocked to see her down by the side of my bed; she was just loving life," Kenzie said. The mom, from the southwest of England, asked her daughter, "What are you doing?" Ava Mae, however, was completely unbothered and carried on eating her popcorn. "She's the most-sassy little person, with the funniest personality," Kenzie added. Kenzie's clip clocked up more than 2.7 million views and almost 1,100 comments. Many other parents found the moment of toddler mischief relatable. "My son came into me one morning eating a cinnamon donut and had another in his hand ready to eat next," one user wrote. "My son did the same thing at her age. Got himself some cereal. Got his iPad. Sat down next to my bed and was crunching away. Then he got mad at me when I was like, 'Um, what are you doing?' He was clearly eating," another commented. "Poor kid's only at the cinema watching her movie leave her be," a third user posted. But Ava Mae's early-morning snack stash left some users concerned, pointing out that popcorn is considered a choking hazard for young children, especially those under 4 years old. The American Academy of Pediatrics says that popcorn is one of several foods, along with grapes, hot dogs, and nuts, that pose a choking risk due to the shape and texture. Parents are generally advised to avoid giving popcorn to toddlers until they are developmentally ready to chew it thoroughly. Kenzie, aware of the concern, told Newsweek thatshe took the popcorn away soon after the video was filmed. "Me, my 4-year-old old son and [Ava Mae] just started laughing. I did take them away from her as she had eaten half the bag already," the mom added. Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures you want to share?

'Call the police.' Jared Verse left inspired by his Aaron Donald workout trauma
Jared Verse thought he was ready for the challenge. A workout with future Hall of Famer Aaron Donald in Donald's home gym? No big deal. Or so believed Verse, the reigning NFL defensive rookie of the year. 'That workout was psychotic,' Verse said this week. The meeting of the muscles happened in June after Verse stoked Donald's competitive fire during Verse's appearance on the 'Adam Schefter Podcast.' Verse unabashedly if not kiddingly sounded as if he were challenging Donald to a workout duel. 'He don't want that,' Verse said when asked if he could work out with Donald during the offseason. 'He's not ready for that.' Verse added a few other choice comments, causing Donald to playfully respond in a video posted to social media. 'Somebody put the word out,' Donald said. 'I'm looking for you, Verse. I'm looking for you. Come to the house. I just want to talk. I just want to talk, that's it. 'Nothing much, big dog. That's it. Just a little conversation. Put in a little weights. Do a little cardio. You know, the old-man retirement workout. Let's put you through it. See what you can do. I just want to talk. Come on, I just want to talk.' A few days later, the two got together for a workout that Verse will never forget. Donald put Verse through a punishing series of full-body circuit training. 'His wife came in laughing at me — I told her to call the police,' Verse said, adding, 'I tried to lie and say my mom was at my house and I had to go let her in. He told me to give my keys to his management or assistant and that they would go let my mom in. So I wasn't leaving. 'Finished the workout. I'm dead tired, I'm exhausted. I had a plan to go jump in the sauna afterwards, didn't happen. I had plans to watch film, didn't happen. Went home and I didn't work out for another day and a half because I couldn't move my body.' Verse, however, valued the lessons learned. Donald stressed to Verse throughout the exhausting workout that he think about the fourth quarter of games, and the need to be strong when others fall off. 'It was insane to see that's the level it takes to be in the discussions of best defensive player ever or best player ever,' Verse said. 'So that's the level I have to reach on a consecutive basis. That's what I'm striving for now.' Verse is part of an ascending Rams defensive front that includes edge rusher Byron Young and tackles Kobie Turner and Braden Fiske. The Rams added depth by signing free-agent tackle Poona Ford and selecting Michigan edge rusher Josaiah Stewart in the third round of the draft. The confidence in the pass rush led the Rams to stand pat and not add any players to the secondary. A strong pass rush, they reason, will make up for perceived deficiencies on the back end. Verse, 24, is the star of the front. The confident and vocal 2024 first-round pick exceeded expectations last season, recording 4 ½ sacks and 18 quarterback hits while blossoming into one of the league's most dynamic defensive players. Has coach Sean McVay noticed anything different about the 6-foot-4, 250-pound Verse as he prepares for his second season. 'Other than him still talking and you can't hear him shut up ever?' McVay said, laughing, 'I love him. I mean, he is never shutting up, but he's got a relentless energy. 'I think he's understanding how to be able to use that to his advantage.' At the behest of former Florida State and NFL defensive lineman Corey Simon, Verse said he reviewed every play from his rookie season. He focused on the bad plays, as well as the good ones, to find ways to improve. His performance in a 44-42 defeat by the Buffalo Bills stood out. 'They definitely found my weakness in that game,' he said, 'and I definitely made sure that's not a problem anymore.' Verse reported for training camp with a slightly different approach than last year, when he experienced what he described as a rookie mindset. Read more: The ultimate Matthew Stafford backup? Why the Rams love Jimmy Garoppolo 'I was mentally like, 'Oh, I've got to pound it, I've got to pound it. I've got to pound it,'' Verse said. 'This is a grind. It's a long 17-game season. We're trying to go a lot longer than 17 games, so I can't push myself too much harder. 'I was getting after it [this week], but I still was able to take a little step back, realize, 'hey, not every day needs to be the grand finale.'' Defensive coordinator Chris Shula said that with the departure of veteran Michael Hoecht, Verse has stepped up as a leader of the edge rushers. 'He's a guy that really likes to be coached hard,' Shula said. 'And when your best players like to be coached hard, I think that sets the culture for the whole defense.' Verse has made no secret of his goal to become not only one of the NFL's top defensive players, but like Donald, one of the best of all time. For the time being, however, Donald can continue to go through post-retirement workouts on his own. 'He needs to stay away from me,' Verse joked, 'and if the security sees him on the property, they need to take care of him.'
