Taylor Swift appeared to be dropping a major hint to her rumored new romance with Travis Kelce recently – as she wore his birthstone during a night out in NYC.
The singer, 33, who is said to have been ‘quietly hanging out’ with the Kansas City Chiefs player, 33, wore a Foundrae necklace studded with an opal – the birthstone for October birthdays. Kelce will turn 34 on October 5.
She paired the $1,150 pendant – which according to the company’s description ‘represents love’ with a $6,365 chain choker from the same brand,
The description reads: ‘Each pair comes at a time in our lives when something just feels right. These pairs of pears, we absorb them, fuse them into our own hearts, and our heart grows as a result.
‘It’s those pairs we choose to keep; friends, lovers, family, chosen family, a part of our heart forever. Forever and always, perpetually, and unceasingly bound.’
‘Taylor and Travis have been quietly hanging out,’ a source told The Messenger lasyt week.
‘She saw him when she was in New York City a few weeks ago.’
This comes after he revealed how he tried – and failed – to make a move on Swift at one of her tour dates in July.
The athlete said he had his phone number inscribed on a bracelet, which he planned to present to the pop star.
However when he attended one of Taylor’s recent concerts in Kansas City, he was unsuccessful in his attempts to meet her backstage.
‘So she doesn’t meet anybody and she doesn’t – or at least she didn’t want to meet me, so I took it personal,’ he quipped on his podcast New Heights.
Travis hosts the podcast with his brother Jason Kelce, an NFL player whom he happened to be pitted against at this year’s Super Bowl.
Jason plays for the Philadelphia Eagles, who were defeated at the Super Bowl this year by Travis’ team, the Kansas City Chiefs.
Travis shared on the podcast that when he went to see Taylor in concert, he was ‘disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings, so I was a little butthurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I’ve made for her.’
The athlete explained: ‘If you’re up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets, and I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it.’
Although he was unable to meet with Taylor face-to-face, he had nothing but warm words for her performance, which he hailed as ‘an unbelievable show.’
Jason jokingly guessed that Taylor, who hails from Pennsylvania, refused to meet with Travis because of her known fondness for the Eagles.
‘Well, she probably just hasn’t gotten over the Super Bowl yet. She’s a big Eagles fan, so maybe she just made something up and just didn’t wanna talk to you,’ he vamped.
Travis conducted an on-off relationship with influencer Kayla Nicole for five years, culminating in their latest breakup in 2022.
Meanwhile Taylor has dated a dazzling array of celebrities, including Jake Gyllenhaal, John Mayer, Joe Jonas, Tom Hiddleston, Taylor Lautner and Calvin Harris.
