If fans wondered whether Travis Kelce would dash off to Australia to be with his girlfriend Taylor Swift following his triumphant return to Kansas City and the tragedy that followed, the answer is: not yet.
So far, Travis has stayed close to home, with exclusive DailyMail.com pictures showing the Super Bowl LVIII winner driving his Rolls Royce to get lunch with a friend on Saturday.
Travis Kelce Drops a Hint
Travis dropped a huge hint that he could head Down Under on this week’s episode of his New Heights podcast, claiming that he would ‘venture to an island real soon’ with the best ones being ‘south’ of the US. This has led fans to believe he would join his girlfriend in Sydney from February 23 – and maybe travel with her to Singapore for her shows in the first week of March.
Kelce’s Recent Actions
Kelce spent under an hour at one of his favorite haunts in the city, Rye, taking a to-go bag with him as he slipped out the back entrance of the busy restaurant.
He is a regular at Rye, and Swift, in a gesture of generosity, took his teammates’ girlfriends out for a birthday dinner in January – picking up the bill and opting to try the cinnamon roll which is reportedly Kelce’s favorite.
Swift is currently on the Australian leg of her Era’s tour, and fans have speculated whether Kelce would rush to support her in Melbourne after their romance dominated NFL coverage this season.
But Swift’s boyfriend appears to be in no rush to make the long journey to Australia, looking calm as he walked into Rye – despite receiving backlash for his partying antics.
Donations and Backlash
Both Kelce and Swift donated $100,000 to victims of a recent mass shooting, with Kelce’s charity, the Eighty-Seven & Running Foundation, seeing The GoFundMe page exceed its goal and reaching $189,000.
Kelce was hit with a barrage of criticism after he was pictured at a ‘scaled-down’ party following the mass shooting at the Chiefs’ Super Bowl parade. However, his donation to the victims shows his intention to support the community amidst a difficult period.
Kelce was also seen smiling with his Chiefs teammates after a shooting during the parade. Despite the criticism he faced, he remains focused, as demonstrated by his calm demeanor.
Continued Investigation
Kansas City Police and the FBI are looking for others who may have been involved in the shooting incident and are appealing for witnesses and those with cellphone videos to come forward.
All the patients who were admitted to Children’s Mercy Hospital following the mass shooting have been discharged, with medics treating 12 patients. University Health reported that three shooting victims are still in critical condition.
