Kelce first expressed his admiration for Swift during her July Eras Tour show in Kansas City. He crafted a friendship bracelet with his number, hoping to meet the pop star. However, Swift, committed to preserving her voice for her 44-song setlist, wasn’t meeting anyone, leaving Kelce somewhat disappointed.

Kelce has been open about aspects of his relationship with Swift, but he's also been careful to maintain their privacy. His priority is to ensure Swift never feels uncomfortable. As he put it, "Make sure I don't say anything that would push Taylor away."

The Super Bowl LVIII, held at Allegiant Stadium on February 11, 2024, in Las Vegas, Nevada, was a momentous occasion for the couple.

During the second quarter of the game, his head coach, Andy Reid, also known as Big Red, took him off the field. Watching from the sidelines as his team fumbled the ball giving the San Francisco 49ers the lead, Kelce cracked under the pressure and confronted Reid.

One fan expressed their sudden change of heart, writing, "And just like that I'm suddenly less excited about Travis Kelce. You don't get to ape up someone all aggressive like that just because you're frustrated. Taylor, my darling, my dove, my lamb, this is a big red flag. [sic]"

Echoing this sentiment, another fan pointed out, "Travis Kelce is a red flag. That aggression isn't what Taylor needs." This concern was further amplified by another fan who suggested, "Taylor needs to leave this man and save her reputation. Look at this lunatic."

The worry about Kelce's temper was also a common theme. One fan commented, "This guy's got a temper. I'm worried about Taylor," and another questioned, "What kind of man assaults his coach for taking him out for a play? I hope Taylor Swift breaks up with Travis Kelce after the game."

When asked about his heated interaction with Coach Reid during the Super Bowl, Kelce responded with a chuckle, "Was just telling him how much I love him." This incident was later addressed on his podcast "New Heights," where his brother Jason Kelce called him out for the outburst. Kelce admitted to crossing the line, acknowledging that his emotions sometimes get the better of him.

Kelce explained his fiery interaction with Reid, stating, "I got a certain relationship with him. He's checked me a few times and I just wanted to let him know that I wanted this thing, and he can put it on me, and I got him." He added that the incident occurred at a moment when the team wasn't performing well, and they needed to get things going.

Despite the controversy, Kelce and Reid managed to laugh off the incident. Reid even expressed his appreciation for Kelce's passion, stating, "They're passionate players. I love that, even if they chest bump me to the other side of the 50. I appreciate it. I just love that the guy wants to play and wants to be in there playing."

However, the incident has brought back memories of Kelce's past. When Swift and Kelce's relationship became public, Kelce's ex-girlfriend, Maya Benberry, issued a warning to Swift.

Benberry, who had previously accused Kelce of being unfaithful during their short-lived relationship, advised Swift to be smart. She stated, "Once a cheater always a cheater. I'm sure by now she has mastered the ability to see who is really there for her and who is just using her."

Sources close to Kelce refuted these claims, stating that Kelce and Benberry only dated for a month after the show and that Kelce never cheated on Benberry. They dismissed Benberry's interview as an attempt to gain fame. Three days after the Kansas Chiefs' big win at the Super Bowl, the team held a victory parade in their hometown.

Kelce, who was clearly inebriated, in a moment of high spirits, took the microphone. He led the crowd in a sing-along of Garth Brooks' 1990 hit "Friends in Low Places." However, his performance was less than perfect, with him stumbling over the lyrics and losing his place, prompting his teammate Patrick Mahomes to step in.

This incident, seemingly harmless and in good fun, sparked concern among Swift's fans. They took to social media, labeling Kelce's behavior as another "red flag" in his relationship with Swift. Comments ranged from "3rd red flag" to "Too many red flags," with some fans urging Swift to "walk away."

On the other hand, supporters of Travis Kelce defended his actions, asserting that he was merely partaking in the festivities. This occurrence has further fueled the ongoing debate surrounding Kelce's conduct and its influence on his relationship with Taylor Swift.
