Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce hold hands leaving dinner date at Palm Beach restaurant
Florida is one hell of a drug.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were spotted holding hands while leaving a dinner date at Buccan restaurant in Palm Beach on Wednesday night.
A video shared on X by a fan showed the couple making their way to a waiting SUV after enjoying their meal at the upscale cafe.
The 'Lover' songstress donned a black minidress for the romantic outing with her beau.
She styled her hair up into a bun and wore a red lip.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end coordinated with the pop star, sporting a black shirt with black-and-white checkered pants.
At one point, Kelce waved at onlookers on the sidewalk, while Swift flashed a smile.
Photos of the duo, both 35, inside the restaurant showed them in good spirits.
They were seen chatting while looking over the menu, and Kelce was seen laughing enthusiastically.
The A-list couple's dinner date comes after the 'Cruel Summer' singer announced last week that she purchased the masters for her first six studio albums.
'I've been bursting into tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found that this is really happening. I really get to say those words,' Swift gushed in a letter on her website. 'All of the music I've ever made … now belongs… to me.'
Swift and Kelce, meanwhile, have slowly been making their way back into the spotlight after retreating following the Chiefs' loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2025 Super Bowl.
The pair resurfaced for a Mother's Day outing with Travis' mom, Donna Kelce, in Philadelphia last month.
They also stepped out for a date night at Harry's in West Palm Beach, Fla., on May 23.
At the time, Swift and Kelce were spotted cozied up in a booth while sipping on some drinks.
They have been spending time in the Sunshine State as the tight end rents a $20 million mansion in Boca Raton.
Kelce reportedly snagged the property in April as he gears up for the forthcoming NFL season.

Charles Woodson Faces Tom Brady Again, Now as Browns Owner
The Super Bowl isn't just a game—it's a giant convention, a who's who of football money, where the members of the sport's ownership class rub shoulders and make deals. During the run-up to last year's event in Las Vegas, Cipriani, the upscale Italian eatery at the Wynn Plaza, served as the backdrop for one such meeting, featuring one of the game's most accomplished players and an NFL power couple. Hall of Famer Charles Woodson dined with Cleveland Browns owners Jimmy and Dee Haslam, along with their daughter-heir Whitney and her husband JW Johnson. For nearly two hours, the Haslams and the Fox broadcaster discussed an array of topics, from football and team operations to Woodson's humble upbringing in Fremont, Ohio. Woodson, named Ohio's Mr. Football in 1994 after a stellar career at Ross High School, told the Haslams that even in his wildest dreams, he could never imagine being an owner of his hometown NFL team—the same storied franchise that drove him to become a pro football player. Advertisement More from Woodson left Las Vegas optimistic about the conversation. However, he still had no real indication that the Haslams would offer to sell him a stake in the Browns and let him become the franchise's first outside minority partner in their family ownership group. 'It could've gone either way from there,' Woodson said in a phone interview. 'It was a great meeting, at least I felt like it, but you never know how someone is feeling on the other side. From there, I didn't know anything.' The interest was, in fact, mutual. Woodson and the Haslams sat down again for another meeting near Woodson's home in Orlando, Fla., during NFL owners' meetings a month later. The family eventually invited him out to Browns headquarters in Berea to tour the team's facilities and training grounds and meet with team executives and staffers. Woodson soon received a formal offer to join the ownership group, a minority deal approved by NFL owners last month. He reportedly paid $5 million for his .01% stake. Advertisement 'I'm from a working-class community, so ownership was never part of my [previous football] conversations,' Woodson, a nine-time NFL Pro Bowler who retired in 2015, said. 'But I feel like I deserve the opportunity for what I was able to give to the game. In some ways, I feel like this is the game repaying me back, and I'm thankful for that.' Woodson isn't the only Fox employee to be an NFL limited partner; Tom Brady, Woodson's friend and former Michigan teammate, officially bought into the Raiders last year. Woodson and Brady are tied together in NFL history through the infamous 'Tuck Rule' game in 2001, but the two remain close more than 20 years later. He says the former New England Patriots quarterback reached out to him to send a note of congratulations last month. The two will fight for bragging rights when the Raiders host the Browns on Nov. 23. 'Here's two guys who came into the University of Michigan together in 1995, and here we are [30] years later and now we're both NFL owners,' said Woodson, who won a national championship and Heisman Trophy with the Wolverines. 'How about that? We're co-workers and opponents again.' Woodson, 48, is the latest former pro athlete to join an NFL ownership group. His purchase highlights the league's push to diversify ownership. The last few years have featured a swath of diverse leaders joining the league as limited partners, from former Olympic gymnast Dominique Dawes (Atlanta Falcons) to a trio of former Toronto sports stars in Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady and Jozy Altidore (Buffalo Bills). Advertisement Both of those deals were orchestrated by Shepherd Park Sports CEO Derrick Heggans. The former NFL attorney with close ties to league owners also played an integral role in Woodson connecting with the Haslam family. The former All-Pro defensive back's entree into the Browns ownership started with a phone call a couple years ago from former Arizona Cardinals star Larry Fitzgerald, who plays golf alongside Woodson every year at the American Century Championship celebrity tournament in Lake Tahoe, Nev. Fitzgerald, a savvy investor who once owned a stake in the NBA's Phoenix Suns, asked Woodson if he'd ever considered team ownership. If so, he said he should meet with Heggans. Soon after, Heggans and Woodson were discussing possible cap table openings, including with the Las Vegas Raiders, the franchise for which he played 11 of his 18 NFL seasons. Heggans ultimately convinced Jimmy and Dee Haslam to consider Woodson, given his football championship pedigree and deep roots in the Buckeye state. 'He's a favorite son of Ohio,' Heggans remembers telling Jimmy Haslam. 'Once you're that, you're always that. … Ohio is proud of Charles Woodson and would love to welcome him back home. He becomes your secret weapon.' As a part team owner, Woodson, like Brady, will be subjected to the league's broadcast restrictions—he will be barred from production meetings with owners and players, and he will not be able to enter other teams' facilities. He says it's not a problem due to his studio analyst pregame role on FOX NFL Kickoff. Advertisement '[Brady's] job is much different than mine,' Woodson said. '[Brady] has to have much more of a touchpoint with each team that's playing each week where he's the analyst. He's more intimate with that process, so he's got a lot of restrictions on him and what knowledge he's privy to.' Woodson says his job 'is a different animal.' Being a limited partner in an NFL team may also impact Woodson's other ventures. He owns a liquor company (Woodson Whiskey) and wine company (Intercept Wines), and reports have stated he will have drop the 'Woodson' name from his whiskey venture, since the NFL's alcohol policy states no team owner can use their name, image and likeness for promotional purposes. Woodson says he hopes his new ownership position will be beneficial for his brands from an awareness standpoint even if that means potentially changing the way he promotes his businesses. The Super Bowl champion has ambitions of marrying his former and current ventures, hoping to make his wine company a leaguewide NFL partner, like California-based Barefoot Wine. Advertisement Woodson, nonetheless, is pumped to be part of the Browns' organization. He looks to contribute in a variety of ways, including with on-field matters, he says, if head coach Kevin Stefanski and the front office are interested in his perspective. When he's not handling his Fox analyst duties or elevating his businesses, he's spending time as a defensive coach for his son's high school football team (Lake Nona) in Orlando, Fla. But now he can also add owner to his lengthy football resume. It's a dream come true for the kid from Fremont. 'It's incredible news,' he said. 'Incredible.'

Aaron Rodgers says continuing to play football was ‘best for my soul' as he reveals he's now married
After months of speculation, Aaron Rodgers finally signed a deal to become the Pittsburgh Steelers starting quarterback last week and set up another fascinating chapter in his Hall of Fame career. The 41-year-old inked a one-year, $13.6 million dollar contract with the Steelers in an attempt to bring Super Bowl success back to a franchise which has gone 16 years without a Vince Lombardi Trophy and 14 years since their last appearance in the season-ending game; coincidentally, it was Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers who beat the Steelers in their last Super Bowl appearance in 2011. On his first day of mandatory minicamp in Pittsburgh on Tuesday, Rodgers said that despite being the oldest quarterback in the league, he's still playing because it's what he wants to do. 'For my ego, I don't need it to keep playing,' Rodgers told reporters. 'A lot of decisions that I've made over my career and life from strictly the ego – even if they turn out well – are always unfulfilling. 'But the decisions made from the soul are usually pretty fulfilling. So this was a decision that was best for my soul. I felt like being here with coach (Mike Tomlin) and the guys they got here and the opportunity here was best for me. I'm excited to be here.' Rodgers' signing saga divided many given the length of time it took – most notably, Steelers legend Terry Bradshaw said he didn't want the former Packers and New York Jets star anywhere near the team – but with the four-time NFL MVP at the helm, the Steelers look a formidable outfit. He is coming off two disappointing seasons with the Jets, including one which was lost to a torn Achilles tendon just four plays into his first year with the franchise. Although he failed to have the success his signing was meant to bring to Gang Green, Rodgers still showed glimpses of producing like a top-level quarterback last year. Now, he joins up with Tomlin and an offense led by wide receiver DK Metcalf, who joined in the offseason. Before Rodgers' signing, videos on social media showed the pair working out in California. Rodgers – who also revealed on Tuesday that he got married this offseason – was complimentary of Metcalf after his first day of practice with the team, but highlighted head coach Tomlin as the main reason he decided to join. 'I've gone against him over the years. The way that the conversations went between him and I, whenever it was in March or April and the last Sunday when I called him was some of the coolest conversations I had in the game,' he said. 'So he's a big reason of why I'm here and I'm excited to play for him.' While Steelers fans might be excited at the prospect of Rodgers playing in the Steel City, other members of the NFL are enthusiastic about it for a different reason. Myles Garrett – who plays for the Steelers' AFC North rivals, the Cleveland Browns – was asked about Rodgers' addition to the division on Tuesday and his answer was unequivocal. 'What do I think about it? I think it's a good opportunity to put him in the graveyard,' Garrett told reporters. Garrett, the 2023 Defensive Player of the Year, is famous for his extravagant Halloween decorations. He has decorated the front yard of his house as a graveyard filled with tombstones adorned with the names of every quarterback he has sacked over his career. In 2021, Garrett wore a Grim Reaper-style costume with a cloak emblazoned with the names of the quarterbacks he'd sacked. Garrett's first opportunity to add Rodgers to that list comes in Week 6 as the Browns travel to Pittsburgh before Cleveland hosts the Steelers in Week 17.

Taylor Swift, her masters and when spending tons of money is good for your mental health
Taylor Swift, her masters and when spending tons of money is good for your mental health Show Caption Hide Caption Taylor Swift's no longer the youngest self-made billionaire Taylor Swift was once the youngest self-made woman billionaire at 35. The new record holder, according to Forbes, is Lucy Guo, 30, the co-founder of Scale AI. unbranded - Entertainment With one major purchase, Taylor Swift made her "greatest dream come true." The music mogul bought the masters to her first six albums after they were bought by Scooter Braun − someone Swift has publicly criticized − in 2019. Following Braun's purchase of her masters, the singer embarked on a crusade to reclaim ownership of her artistry, going so far as to re-record those albums and release them with the designation "Taylor's Version." But now, it's all over. Late last month, Swift revealed in a lengthy statement on her website that, thanks to negotiations with the private equity firm Shamrock Capital − and, presumably, a boatload of cash − all that music that once belonged to Braun is hers now. Shamrock Capital purchased the master rights to Swift's first six albums from Braun's Ithaca Holdings in 2020. "To say this is my greatest dream come true is actually being pretty reserved about it," Swift wrote. "I will be forever grateful to everyone at Shamrock Capital for being the first people to ever offer this to me. The way they've handled every interaction we've had has been honest, fair, and respectful." She added: "This was a business deal to them, but I really felt like they saw it for what it was to me: My memories and my sweat and my handwriting and my decades of dreams." Swift clearly has impressive business acumen. After all, she had the highest-grossing tour of all time. Forbes estimates her net worth at $1.6 billion. In October 2024, the publication designated her the world's richest female musician. What's clear from her statement, however, is that, for her, buying these masters was much more than a business decision (though financial experts agree it probably will help her make more money in the long run, too). It was about her peace of mind: Finally, she has the satisfaction of knowing her music is hers. What health & wellness means for you: Sign up for USA TODAY's Keeping It Together newsletter Let's be real: Most of us will never make Swift-sized purchases like this. That's because most of us will never have Swift-sized bank accounts. But the singer buying her masters, as well as her rationale behind the decision, does raise an important question: When is it wise to shell out major cash for something that holds deep meaning for you? When is peace of mind worth a dent in your bank account? It's a difficult question, and the answer isn't so cut-and-dry. "What she did was buying back her power, which is extremely emotional, especially for women, but it's so empowering that you're getting control of your own destiny back. For Taylor, it's a very big thing ... but she could afford to do that," certified financial planner Melissa Cox says. "For other people, people that don't have Taylor Swift kind of money, it's just going to depend on what it is that we're purchasing and why." Taylor Swift and what her masters purchase means Swift hasn't revealed how much she spent on her masters. Still, it's safe to assume those masters weren't cheap, with some outlets estimating the singer spent up to $360 million for them. A source close to the negotiations told USA TODAY any rumored price range reported is "highly inaccurate." But regardless, the sale price is sure to have been hefty. Kristen Kelly, co-founder of the financial education resource The Wall Street Skinny, says that, even though this purchase was clearly quite emotional for Swift, it makes good business sense too. The power of Swift's brand lies in her ability to control her narrative. Owning the masters to her first six albums is an important piece of that puzzle. More: Taylor Swift owns her music catalog following masters controversy with Scooter Braun "Her whole business, her whole everything is her brand. ... This was just such an important strategic decision for her overall," Kelly says. "Honestly, even if she had to pay more, I think it was probably still the right move strategically." Not to mention, the purchase also sends a powerful message − to the music industry and to other artists, both established and up-and-coming. "She's opened the eyes of other music artists as well, and, because she's doing that, she's kind of pushing back on the industry," certified financial planner Monica Dwyer says. "It kind of feels like the industry is more powerful than the individual." How to know when a big purchase is really worth it Though most of us will never spend money like Swift, the pop star's business dealings carry important lessons about personal finance, mental wellbeing and what purchases are really worthwhile. Sure, we might not ever buy master recordings, but we may have to decide one day if we're going to buy a dream car. Or a dream home. End of an Era: How Taylor Swift's record-shattering tour put fun, freedom centerstage Being able to discern when something matters enough to you to warrant its hefty price tag is crucial. "Let's face it, a lot of our decisions are not made by the logical side of our brain," Dwyer says. "The richer and richer you become, the less you have to worry about those little incidental things. The cost of our home repairs, electric, gas, food, those kind of things are not a thought in Taylor Swift or very, very wealthy Americans' minds." Here are some important considerations when deciding whether or not to make a big purchase: Consider the staying power of what you're buying. "You can spend money in the sense that you go out, you go to a Peter Luger Steakhouse, you buy steak, you eat it, it's gone," Kelly says. "This is something that she's putting money into, and it's holding value the same way you buy into a house and that value goes up." "You can spend money in the sense that you go out, you go to a Peter Luger Steakhouse, you buy steak, you eat it, it's gone," Kelly says. "This is something that she's putting money into, and it's holding value the same way you buy into a house and that value goes up." Ask yourself: Would I be OK if what I buy becomes worthless? "What happens if the value goes to zero?" Kelly says. "Is that something you can live with?" "What happens if the value goes to zero?" Kelly says. "Is that something you can live with?" Give yourself time to think it over. "Sometimes what I'll do is, if I'm shopping on a website, I will put something that I want into the cart, but I won't buy it," Dwyer says. "I wait a week and I say to myself, 'Do you remember even what you put in that cart?' And if it's still something you want, and you remember it a week later, then it's worth purchasing."
