Travis Kelce ensured his girlfriend Taylor Swift’s final days as a 33-year-old would be unforgettable as they partied up a storm until 2.a.m. at a holiday bar in Kansas City.
Despite losing his game against the Buffalo Bills just hours ahead of the pop star’s pre-birthday celebration, the Kansas City Chiefs star tight end, 34, did not let his disappointment stop him from showering Swift with love in front of his mom, Donna, teammates and mutual friends.
As they enjoyed Christmas cocktails under hanging twinkly lights, the couple did not shy away from being publicly affectionate as they mingled with love ones.
His mother was reportedly the first to leave the holiday pop-up bar, around 10:45 p.m., while Swift’s new best friend Brittany Mahomes and her husband, Patrick, left at 1 a.m. in a party bus, according to TMZ.

An hour later, the 12-time Grammy winner and her man slipped into the back seat of the same SUV with their ‘security in tow’ as they soaked up every minute together amid their long-distance romance.
Kelce opted to leave his $400,000 Rolls-Royce parked on the street, outside the bar, after presumably having a few drinks.
He is reportedly keen to continue celebrating her special day throughout the holiday, and even into 2024, with plans to join her on tour.
‘Travis is going to be with her and he is really nervous because he wants this to be her best birthday ever,’ a source told DailyMail.com. ‘It isn’t about gifts for him, though he will be getting gifts for her, but he wants to provide an experience for her that is likely going to be more than just today.
‘He is looking to lead things into Christmas and the New Year and have it be all about her. He wants to be with her as often as possible and after the season he intends to join her on tour.
‘They are going to take their romance all over the world. He is very excited to make her feel like a princess.’
Detailing Taylor’s plans for this evening, a separate source said Taylor is excited to introduce her new man to those closest to her.
‘Taylor will be having her annual birthday bash with close friends and is really excited for Travis to meet them all,’ they said. ‘She is in love and this is the best present life could give her right now.’

The sportsman was absent on Tuesday night when Taylor was pictured kicking off her celebrations a day early at Manhattan’s Zero Bond with Selena, 31, and actor Miles Teller, 36.
Taylor opened up about her romance with Travis for the first time in an interview with TIME magazine last week and shut down rumors that their first date was her first appearance at one of his home games.
‘This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell,’ she told the publication.
‘We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other.

‘Taylor will be having her annual birthday bash with close friends and is really excited for Travis to meet them all,’ a source told DailyMail.com. ‘She is in love and this is the best present life could give her right now.’
‘By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.’
She also joked that cheering him on from the stands has made her realize that she has been ‘missing out’ on football her whole life.
‘I’m just there to support Travis,’ she said. ‘I have no awareness of if I’m being shown too much and p***ing off a few dads, Brads, and Chads. Football is awesome, it turns out. I’ve been missing out my whole life.’
It came days after Travis opened up about their whirlwind romance, lavishing praise on the Love Story singer, who he described as ‘hilarious’ and ‘a genius.’
‘Everybody knows I’m a family guy,’ he told the WSJ. ‘Her team is her family. Her family does a lot of stuff in terms of the tour, the marketing, being around, so I think she has a lot of those values as well, which is right up my alley.’

Discussing her lyrics, he added: ‘I’ve never been a man of words. Being around her, seeing how smart Taylor is, has been f***ing mind-blowing. I’m learning every day.’
The sportsman has previously visited her in New York and even flew to Buenos Aires to see her perform on her record-breaking Eras tour that confirmed her billionaire status.
DailyMail.com previously revealed that Taylor had temporarily moved in to her boyfriend’s $6 million Kansas City mansion while on a break from the tour, with a moving truck pictured outside last month.
A separate source claimed that the pair were using it as a ‘practice run,’ with Taylor keen to move in for good with her ‘soulmate’ if all goes well.
