All the shocking connections that linked Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce long before they started dating
A fan has claimed to have found a series of shocking connections that linked Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce long before they got together.
Ever since they started dating in the summer of 2023, the singer, 35, and the football star, also 35, have been couple goals.
From packing on PDA on the field after his football games to holding hands during romantic date nights in New York City, there's no denying that the stars are as happy as could be together.
And according to one Swiftie, their relationship may have been written in the stars - as they claimed to have discovered some weird coincidences in the duo's pasts that they believe are proof they were always destined to fall in love.
'The invisible string between Taylor and Travis, a thread,' the fan wrote on X, formerly Twitter, before sharing all the surprising ways Taylor and Travis' paths crossed before they became boyfriend and girlfriend.
First, the fan shared a snap of Taylor posing in front of a Chiefs poster backstage at her Reputation tour in 2018.
They also posted a photo of her holding up a Chiefs jersey as she posed with former Chiefs player Chase Daniel - who threw Travis his first NFL touchdown - in 2014.
The fan also pointed out that Taylor has sung about the colors red and gold in many of her songs over the years - which are the Chiefs' colors.

They also revealed that Travis previously hung out with Taylor's best friend Selena Gomez at a charity even in 2019. Selena and Travis were also at same event together in 2015.
Another surprising connection between the lovebirds is that Taylor performed at Arrowhead stadium - where the Chiefs play - for the first time ever on September 24, 2011, during her Speak Now Tour.
And the first time she attended a Chiefs game at the stadium after she and Travis started dating was on the exact same date 12 years later.
The fan also reminded her followers that Travis attended Taylor's concert for the first time on July 8, where he famously tried to slip her his number on a friendship bracelet.
That happened to be just one day after she posted a slew of photos from her annual 4th of July party, which she captioned, 'Happy belated Independence Day from your local neighborhood independent girlies.'
The Swiftie pointed out that Taylor has a lyric in a song that came out long before she met Travis that says, 'After the storm something was born on the 4th of July.'
In addition, the interview in which Travis first discussed his attempt to give Taylor his number - which seemingly started it all - debuted on a Wednesday, and a line in her 2012 song Begin Again states, 'On a Wednesday, in a café, I watched it Begin Again.'
The X user also revealed that Taylor's tour dancer Kameron 'Kam' Saunders' brother played football on Travis' team, and that Post Malone - who collaborated with the Cruel Summer songstress on her hit Fortnight - has a tattoo of Travis' signature on his arm and has been a longtime fan of the football player.
Their thread quickly went viral, gaining tons of replies from stunned fans who couldn't believe all the small ways in which Taylor and Travis' lives were intertwined
Taylor and Travis also have a surprising mutual friend - they are both longtime pals with Miles Teller.
Lastly, the fan revealed that a couple had dressed up as Taylor and Travis on Halloween in 2020 - three years before they got together.
The thread quickly went viral, gaining more than 34,000 likes and tons of replies from stunned fans who couldn't believe all the small ways in which Taylor and Travis' lives were intertwined.
'Wow,' one user wrote, while another added, 'They're perfect for each other.'
'Love how fate connects them in unexpected ways,' gushed someone else.
'They are soulmates,' read a fourth tweet.
A fifth said, 'The way that you'll never convince me this wasn't fate, like, they're soulmates.'

Echo Valley: Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney star in the plot-twist thriller of the year
There are few plot devices more pleasing than a surprise whose shock value mellows into pure karmic satisfaction, and Echo Valley delivers the toe-wriggler of the year. This pensive, riveting Apple TV+ thriller performs a sort of narrative jiu-jitsu on its audience – using the weight of an early, straightforward twist as leverage in a second, more elaborate one, which cumulatively leaves the viewer breathless and giddy on the mat. Directed by Britain's Michael Pearce (of Beast and Encounter) and written by Mare of Easttown creator Brad Inglesby, Echo Valley would make a persuasive answer to the question 'in a Taken-like crisis, what if it fell to the mum, rather than the dad, to sort everything out?' By that I don't mean that this is a film in which Julianne Moore rampages around rural Pennsylvania cracking Albanian skulls. Rather, Moore's stoic single mother, horse trainer Kate Garrett, uses a particularly maternal set of skills – foresight, forbearance, meticulous planning, sound character judgement, and an ability to call in the perfect favour from her friendship circle at just the right moment – to extricate her troubled adult daughter from a hellish predicament. Said daughter Claire (Sydney Sweeney) is a drug addict, and her habit has yoked her to two undesirable men. One is her boyfriend and fellow user Ryan (Edmund Donovan); the other is the couple's reptilian dealer Jackie (Domhnall Gleeson, resplendently hideous), to whom the pair find themselves $10,000 in debt. With no hope of recouping the sum from Claire, Jackie tails the girl to her mother's shiningly bucolic and seemingly successful farm – which he decides to treat, via threats of violence and ruin, as an enormous, hay-strewn ATM. To his eyes, this woman clearly has money to spare. We know better, however: in a dry yet tender cameo, Kyle MacLachlan pops up as the successful former husband still shovelling four-figure cheques into this sun-dappled money pit which has come to stand for everything his ex holds dear. Echo Valley opens with half an hour of relatively low-key scene-setting drama that also delicately sketches in Kate's grief for her late female partner: enough to invest the more suspenseful remainder with enough emotional weight to make it really smack. As Claire, who in bomb terms is less shell than site, the often glamorous Sweeney has been pointedly cast against type. But Claire's complex mother-daughter relationship with Kate – strained well beyond breaking point, yet still determinedly, impossibly unsnapped – is deftly handled by both actresses. In a brilliantly underplayed early scene, the two go swimming at an idyllic local lake, which later serves as a nexus for various murky developments. Kate watches her girl playing happily with some younger children, and Moore's unspoken anguish – if this is her now, why can't it be her always? – vibrates silently through the moment. Inglesby wittily repurposes such modern plot-wreckers as mobile phone tracking and instant messaging into real dramatic assets, while as a director, Pearce is a savvy stylist who knows exactly when to rein things in: imagine Jacques Audiard with a cricket conscience perched on his shoulder whose only job is to say 'steady on'. The outrageous yet methodical nature of Kate's rescue plan for her daughter is, therefore, an ideal fit for him. Echo Valley is nothing like a conventionally air-punchy film, but you can't help but cheer the whole enterprise on.

Reality star, 46, admits agonising wild sex injury – leaving co-stars horrified
REAL Housewives of Orange County star Gretchen Rossi made an x-rated revelation in the show's latest trailer. The 46-year-old actress is making her return to the RHOC franchise and appeared in the trailer for the 19th season of the Bravo reality show where her and fiance, Slade Smiley, shared a bedroom secret. 4 4 The two were chatting with castmate Emily Simpson, when Gretchen tells her, 'I broke his penis for real.' Slade is seen nodding in agreement as Gretchen bends her finger to demonstrate the injury adding, "like this." The NSFW confession was quickly replaced with other edits of Gretchen's RHOC comeback. She is returning to RHOC as 'a friend of the show' and will co-star along fellow housewives, Emily Simpson, Shannon Beador, Heather Dubrow, Tamra Judge, Gina Kirschenheiter, Jennifer Pedranti and Katie Ginella. Elsewhere in the trailer, she appears to be reigniting her feud with Tamra when Emily is seen telling the latter, 'Gretchen said you had an affair.' The trailer also shows the two women going head to head in what seems like an explosive confrontation. Tamra is seen yelling at Gretchen: 'For 12 years you've been going after me.' And Gretchen says back to her: 'It's not the same thing.' Gretchen first debuted on RHOC in 2008 when she was diagnosed to Jeff Beitzel, but he died from cancer as that season began premiering. She then met Slade who had previously been engaged to another RHOC star, Jo De La Rosa. Gretchen proposed to Slade in 2013 and they welcome daughter Skylar five years ago. Gretchen experienced tragedy in 2023 when her stepson Grayson died from cancer at only 22 years old. She's also stepmom to Gavin, 32. The Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 premieres Thursday, July 10, at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo, and can be streamed the next day on Peacock. 4

BREAKING NEWS Dallas Stars fire Pete DeBoer despite team's impressive season
The Dallas Stars have fired head coach Pete DeBoer after three seasons in charge, with the Texas powerhouse making the Western Conference Finals in each of those years. DeBoer is a longtime NHL head coach, who achieved plenty of success leading the Stars' bench but failed to get the team to the Stanley Cup Finals in a trio of direct attempts. The Stars were eliminated the last two postseasons by the Edmonton Oilers, with a defeat to the Vegas Golden Knights in 2023. The 56-year-old DeBoer has 18 seasons of NHL experience as a head coach and has never won a Stanley Cup. He led the New Jersey Devils in 2012 and the San Jose Sharks in 2016 to his only pair of Stanley Cup Finals as a bench boss, where his team lost to the Los Angeles Kings and Pittsburgh Penguins respectively. DeBoer's last six seasons leading a team to the playoff have ended with an elimination in the conference finals, dating back to the 2019 playoffs with the Sharks. The timing from the Stars leaves their post as the only head-coaching vacancy. In the last few days, the Penguins hired Dan Muse to heir helm and the Boston Bruins scooped up Marco Sturm, with DeBoer being a more impressive candidate than either of those two men. Unless the Stars hire a standing NHL head coach, which could happen with one of the deepest rosters in hockey, DeBoer will have to wait a season for his next bench leadership role.
