Ed Kelce, Travis’ dad has hinted that the tight end will be visiting Taylor Swift as she performs in Australia for the next leg of her Eras Tour.

Rumors have been swirling for a few days, with reports claiming he’s thinking about heading Down Under to spend time with the singer ahead of her shows in Sydney.

Appearing on the Today Show, Ed was asked about Travis Kelce‘s travel plans, and if they include an island near the Great Barrier Reef.

“I don’t know, I’d heard a rumour to that, and I’ve gotta call into him, I wouldn’t be surprised if he does,” he responded with a knowing smirk on his face.

The smile seemed to give it away though.

It wouldn’t be strange if Trav did make the trip. The 34-year-old flew down to Argentina to catch one of her shows, and she’s attended 13 out of 19 of his games from his latest NFL season, so they’re always supporting each other’s careers.

The Kansas City Chiefs player also hinted he plans to travel on the latest episode of his podcast, New Heights, which he co-hosts with brother Jason Kelce.

He said he plans to ‘travel to an island soon’, adding “I think the best ones are south right now,” without saying any more.

Ed had nothing but praise for Taylor when asked about Trav’s new girlfriend.

He said: “I think she’s very down to earth, a very grounded person.

“When you consider all the attention and adulation that follows her, it’s kind of remarkable that she is just like the girl next door. That’s the only way I can put it really.”

He then re-told the famous story of the first meeting between them, when he saw the celebrity cleaning up cups and plates, which may be surprising from billionaire Taylor Swift.

“I don’t know who else noticed it but I did. And I’ve met her folks so I know why she does stuff like that, that’s just the way she was raised,” he said.

“She is the least bit obsessed with her fame, she accepts it and she loves what she does, very hard worker, very shrewd businesswoman, she puts everything into these shows.”
