has no issue with being girlfriend ’s muse.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, seemingly inspired two tracks on Swift’s 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, but he wasn’t surprised by the subtle shout-outs.
“He heard everything before it was released. He is so proud of [her] and understands and accepts that being with her means being a part of her music,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. “And he’s secure and fine with it.”
Kelce isn’t the only person referenced on TTPD, which dropped on April 19. Swifties have been dissecting the record since its release, trying to pin down which songs are about, whom Swift, 34, dated from 2016 to 2023, and , whom she had a months-long romance with in 2023. Swift and Healy, 35, reconnected after her split from Alwyn, 33, after being previously linked in 2014.

The source adds that just because there aren’t more Kelce-inspired songs on TTPD doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
“She has written other songs, some inspired by Travis, but they weren’t produced or part of the album,” the insider shares. “There wasn’t time for them to be part of the album. She’s kept some private and hasn’t released them yet. She has a journal and writes all the time.”
Swift references football in the lyrics to “The Alchemy” and “So High School,” both of which appear on TTPD.

“Damn, that’s messed up. I don’t want to kill any of them,” Kelce quipped during the interview. “Ariana, sorry, love you, but you’re gone. And then Taylor Swift would be the kiss. And what’s the last one? Katy Perry? Yeah, Katy Perry would be the marry.”
Swift and Kelce started dating in the summer of 2023. The pair confirmed their romance that September when Swift showed up to her first Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.
