Taylor Swift has had quite an impact on Travis Kelce’s eating experiences, with insiders spilling the beans on their discreet dinner dates. Ever since Swift became publicly linked to the Kansas City Chiefs heartthrob in the summer of 2023, they’ve been spotted exiting posh eateries in both New York City and Kansas City.

The pair savour their meals just like anyone else, but Swift’s penchant for privacy has become apparent. It appears Kelce was once more of a social butterfly at these dining establishments, but that’s changed since Swift entered the picture.

“Taylor’s security calls the restaurants beforehand to request a private room for the couple,” revealed a source to The U.S. Sun. “They request workers not serving them in the private room to refrain from interacting with them or asking for photos to avoid drawing attention. Before Travis began bringing Taylor to the Kansas City spots, he would socialize more with staff and guests of the restaurants.”

Since dating the pop sensation, Kelce’s celebrity status has rocketed, though it hasn’t all been smooth sailing, as his on-field performance seems to have taken a hit this season despite him being among the NFL’s elite tight ends and celebrating his third championship win with Swift cheering him on in Las Vegas last year.

While Kelce may be feeling the passage of time with his 823 receiving yards and a modest three touchdowns last season – numbers that pale in comparison to his usual performance since he began starting in 2014 – there’s been a buzz among fans about whether the glare of the public eye has gotten to him. Swift is said to have committed to a lifestyle change to support her beau’s return to peak condition.

A source divulged to Life and Style: “All the commentators are saying that he partied like a monster during the offseason and he’s only got himself to blame for being out of shape and out of form. Taylor and Travis both insist it’s being blown out of proportion, but there’s no doubt Taylor feels a little guilty that it’s gotten to this point because it is true that he spent his offseason living the good life with her. Even after training camp he was off his diet and partying with her and her friends because that’s what she wanted to do.

“Now making it her mission to help him shed the weight and get his six-pack back so that he can have all the haters eating their words. She’s promised to go on the diet with him for support, at least when they’re together. That means all the junk food is out, no sugar, and definitely no drinking.”
