Inside ‘giggly' Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's PDA-packed Palm Beach date night: ‘This is true love'
'They were a giggly couple on a date. They were just adorable!' the Grammy winner's longtime fan, who belongs to Facebook groups like 'Fearless Swifties over 50,' tells us in a phone interview Friday.
Goodman shares that she and a friend made impromptu dinner plans at Buccan restaurant Wednesday night and got a table in the back, left-hand corner. They were engaged in conversation when Swift and Kelce, both 35, suddenly walked in and were seated right next to her.
'I vaguely felt someone come in – just out of my peripheral vision, I didn't even look,' she says. 'I didn't want to stare, but then I casually took time and looked over there.' When she realized who it was, she thought to herself, 'Oh my God, I can't believe this' and says she started 'shaking.'
However, Goodman regained her composure, as Buccan's owner and manager went up to her and her friend, Jeff, to 'make sure [they] were cool.' Swift's bodyguard was also seated at a nearby table.
The 69-year-old superfan — who even attended the 'Fortnight' singer's concert in Miami sporting stacks of friendship bracelets on her wrist — tells us she noticed the 'incredibly gorgeous' couple sharing a menu and food, drinking cocktails, giving each other 'playful kisses' and laughing 'lots' together.We're told the 'You Belong With Me' singer and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end were not bothered throughout the night, as their fellow restaurant-goers were very respectful.
However, when it was time for Goodman and her friend to leave, she prepared a few kind words to tell the global pop star and Super Bowl champ, as they had to squeeze past them anyway.
'I stood up and said, 'Excuse me, I don't mean to interrupt, but I'm probably one of your oldest and biggest Swifties in the planet' and she laughed,' the Palm Beach county local shares.
'I said, 'I just had to stop and congratulate you on the re-ownership of your masters. I'm so, so happy for you. Congratulations.''
Following Goodman's acknowledgement of Swift's giant feat — after years of a public feud with Scooter Braun and several album re-recordings — the singer looked directly at the Swiftie and said, 'I noticed you! You are so beautiful,' adding, 'Thank you so much!' as they shook hands.
Goodman then paid a compliment to Kelce, as well, telling him, 'I lived in Kansas City for seven years before you were even born but I'm a longtime Chiefs fan and I just wish you the best success in the season this year.'
She continued, 'You're going to go back and I just know you're going to do it and I can't wait to watch it happen.' She tells us that the NFL star 'put out his hand immediately' and said 'thank you so much,' just 'as warm as [Swift] was [with] direct eye contact.'
Kelce has been spending time in Florida as he is training there to prepare for the next football season following his decision to return to the league and not retire just yet. As a result, Swift has also been staying in the Sunshine State to support her beau, resulting in many sightings of the two at local spots.
Overall, Goodman tells Page Six that she was left with a very positive impression of the power couple.
'Trust me, this is true love. This is not fake. They're real. They're adorable,' she says.
'They're friendly and they're just everything that those of us who are Swifties really believe they are. I saw it up close and personal.'

Jordon Hudson and Bill Belichick's ex, Linda Holliday, attend same Nantucket party months after holiday clash
It seems the ice has thawed in Nantucket. Jordon Hudson and Linda Holliday were spotted at the same Massachusetts fundraiser on Saturday, roughly eight months after Bill Belichick's current gal pal and his ex-girlfriend, respectively, clashed at a holiday affair. TMZ reported Monday that 'no issues were seen by partygoers' at the Boston Pops on Nantucket soiree, which is 'believed to be [Hudson and Holliday's] first public run-in' since the Nantucket Dreamland encounter last December, when Holliday confronted Hudson. 5 Bill Belichick and girlfriend Jordon Hudson in February 2025.

Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Holliday — who split from Belichick, 73, in 2023 after 16 years of dating — told organizers at the December 2024 gathering she felt Hudson's 'presence was inappropriate, since the event was widely advertised as a party headlined by her daughters,' and asked a staffer to 'remove Ms. Hudson from the premises,' according to an incident report obtained by TMZ in May. Holliday and two others confronted Hudson on the dance floor, and when a staffer approached Hudson about whether 'she thought it was a good idea to be there,' the former college cheerleader defended herself, stating she hadn't done anything wrong. 5 Linda Holliday and Bill Belichick dated for 16 years before their breakup was reported in 2023.

Eagles superfan and musician vows to boycott shows in a rival city
One of county music's top stars turns his tour decisions into a loyalty statement. It isn't one of the game's traditional rivalries. The involved teams honestly haven't played each other enough to develop any genuine hatred. Last February's Philadelphia Eagles vs. Kansas City Chiefs matchup was only the twelfth time these proud organizations met on the field to play a football game. There is something brewing, though, and it isn't always friendly. No one should be shocked. Many rivalries have been born from two teams crossing one another's paths frequently during the postseason. Pro football consists of 32 teams. There are only 17 games played by every team each regular season. Every team plays its divisional rivals twice. No team plays every franchise. Thus, league officials developed a rotating schedule, so each organization will eventually play every other team. Long story short, Philadelphia and Kansas City are only scheduled to meet once every four years unless these two teams meet in a Super Bowl or finish with identical rankings in the conference standings (or both). As fate would have it, they've met in football's biggest game to conclude two of the past three seasons. We have seen how that has turned out. They've both come out on top once, and now, there's a little tension. Hey, don't blame the players and coaches. Blame two passionate fan bases. Eagles fan Zach Bryan won't be playing in Kansas City anytime soon. The Eagles and Chiefs share an iconic coach. Kansas City's players and fans weren't very respectful after winning Super Bowl LVII. Who can forget about JuJu Smith-Schuster sending James Bradberry a Valentine's Day card referencing 'holding'? Then, there was the Chiefs' victory parade. Kansas City's offensive linemen showed up with T-shirts referencing Philadelphia registering zero sacks, which in turn led to Lane Johnson mentioning that in his speech to his Eagles teammates before the big game this past February. Why do you think this team took so much pleasure in bludgeoning Patrick Mahomes? Now, one of the Birds' biggest fans has joined in. Country music star Zach Bryan took to X recently and asked, "Where are all the three-peat people from last year?' A Chiefs fan responded with some profanity. Bryan didn't back down, offering a jab of his own. 'Please understand I will never play in Kansas City.' See? Eagles vs. Chiefs may not be a natural rivalry, but it's a rivalry nonetheless. What can we say? Birds fans are different. Sometimes, passion drifts towards lunacy. No one likes them. They don't care. The bonds of loyalty are never broken. We enter 'Exhibit A' into evidence. Bryan's declaration is one every Eagles fan can respect and back with everything in them. Good for you, Mr. Bryan! Good for you!

Kelly Clarkson Says Ex-Husband Is Ill, Postpones Las Vegas Shows
Kelly Clarkson is postponing her Studio Sessions residency in Las Vegas to be with her family amid her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock's illness.

At the time, she said in a statement, 'I am devastated to have to postpone tonight and tomorrow's opening at Caesars.' She added, 'The prep and rehearsals have taken a toll on my voice.
