Travis Kelce has been there for Taylor Swift through all her drama lately!
You know the pop star was dealing with a lot over the past few weeks. The highs have been high, but the lows have been all-timers… all because of her former friend, Blake Lively. The Gossip Girl alum not only dragged Tay into the middle of her It Ends With Us lawsuit battle, she also allegedly tried to extort her pal! According to Justin Baldoni‘s attorney, Blake threatened to release 10 years of Tay’s texts — or at least that’s what a well-placed source close to Taylor said! What a massive betrayal!

Although Taylor wasn’t out and about as much with Travis during this time, it doesn’t mean he wasn’t by her side through everything! A source told Us Weekly on Wednesday:
“They are making fewer public appearances together because [their relationship] brings too much unwanted attention, but there isn’t trouble in paradise.”
The proof? They stepped out late last month for a date night in West Palm Beach, Florida, where Travis is training for the upcoming NFL season. Another insider said that “Taylor has been coming and going to Florida,” but “is still spending a lot of her time in NYC,” adding:
“Florida has been the perfect escape for them.”
Not only to get more privacy, it was a much-needed break for Taylor amid her issues with Blake! The second source noted:
“[Swift’s] emotions were heightened when [Baldoni’s] lawsuit was filed, and [Kelce] was definitely her sounding board.”
Think about all the rant sessions the two must have had about Blake and her hubby Ryan Reynolds! Oof! If only we could be a fly on the wall for those conversations! From what we’ve seen of Trav — and what Tay has said publicly, we get the feeling he’s a calming, encouraging, and intensely positive presence. The perfect person to have in your corner during all this. When he can be, anyway.
A third source shared that Taylor “is trying to spend as much time with him as she can by going to Boca”:
“They are doing stuff separately out of necessity because of his training, but when they find time to connect, it’s intentional and meaningful.”
After the Eras Tour and legal drama, the two deserve some one-on-one time! Reactions, Perezcious readers? Let us know!
