This wasn’t the first Chiefs game Swift attended. She has been a regular presence at their games throughout the season, including on Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve. It’s no secret that Swift and Kelce have been romantically linked for months, and their public appearances together only fuel speculation about their relationship.
