Taylor Swift, the renowned singer-songwriter, made quite an impression at the Grammys 2024 with her multiple wins and a surprise album announcement. However, many fans noticed that she didn't mention her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, during her acceptance speeches. Despite this, sources close to the couple believe that they are still going strong and in it for the long haul.

On the night of the Grammys, as Celine Dion announced that Swift's album 'Midnights' had won Album of the Year, the singer took to the stage with Lana Del Rey and Jack Antonoff. Swift praised Antonoff as a 'once-in-a-generation producer' and referred to Del Rey as a 'legend,' but there was no mention of Kelce. This absence continued throughout the evening, even during her acceptance speech for Best Pop Vocal Album, where she surprised fans by announcing her new album, 'Tortured Poets Department,' instead of 'Reputation (Taylor's Version)' as expected.

Despite the lack of public acknowledgment, Swift thanked Kelce in her speech. However, due to his commitment to the Kansas City Chiefs, who were preparing to play in Super Bowl LVIII against the San Francisco 49ers, Kelce was unable to attend the awards show. An insider revealed that the Chiefs had a strict schedule leading up to the game, leaving no time for travel.

Despite their physical distance during the Grammys, sources claim that Swift and Kelce are still deeply committed to each other. They enjoy spending time together and appreciate the simple joys in life. Those close to them believe that timing is everything and that they are currently in a phase where their relationship is stronger than ever. Both families are reportedly supportive of their romance and have never seen them happier.

In fact, following a public display of affection after the AFC Championship game on January 28, Kelce's brother, Jason Kelce, referred to Swift as a part of the family. The couple went public with their relationship in September and have steadily become more serious over the past few months.

Looking ahead, it appears that Swift and Kelce have exciting plans for their future. Sources revealed that they are considering getting engaged around their first anniversary in the summer. They want their relationship to progress naturally and not be perceived as rushed. Swift has already made herself at home in Kansas City, spending most of the holiday season there and forming close bonds with other Chiefs WAGs, particularly Brittany Mahomes.

While Swift gears up for the second leg of her Eras Tour, which kicks off in Tokyo on February 7, she will also find time to watch the Super Bowl and support the Chiefs on February 11. After the game, she will have a few days to spend with Kelce before hitting the road again. However, with Kelce's football obligations behind him, it is rumored that he is planning extravagant trips with Swift, Brittany Mahomes, and her husband, Patrick Mahomes, to witness Swift's captivating performances overseas.

As fans eagerly wait for more news about the couple, it seems that Swift and Kelce are still going strong. Despite the absence of public declarations during the Grammys, their relationship is thriving, and they are excited about what the future holds for them both personally and professionally.
