Taylor Swift’s boyfriend, American NFL player Travis Kelce, has made a sweet confession about how things are going for him right now.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is winning at life — with a superstar girlfriend, three Super Bowl wins and an upcoming musical festival that he’s hosting generating lots of interest.

“I’m the happiest I’ve ever been,” Kelce recently shared in an interview with People.
“I’m a guy that some people say is glass half full, half empty, and my glass is all the way full.
“It’s all the way full.”
Kelce and Swift began capturing the public’s imagination and attention last September when she was first spotted cheering him on at one of his games.
Since then, there’s been plenty of attention on Kelce, though he attributes his sporting success to the many opportunities that have come his way, rather than his high-profile relationship with a pop superstar.
“It’s just so much fun getting into when you win the Super Bowl, all these doors open, and so I’ve just been going through all these open doors, experiencing life and just appreciating the people that have got me here and also staying high and meeting new faces,” he said.
Kelce is certainly keeping busy.
He has his second annual Kelce Jam music festival coming to Kansas City in May, a documentary titled King Pleasure that he’s co-producing about late artist Jean-Michel Basquiat, and he has plans to open a Prime steakhouse called 1587 next year in partnership with good friend and teammate Patrick Mahomes (the name is a combination of their jersey numbers).
All that, and he has training to do for the new football season.
This, Kelce said, has him at “full throttle,” which he doesn’t appear to mind.
“I like it to be up pace. I like to have just exciting things going on,” he said.
“And sure enough, I’m out here in the entertainment world trying to dabble into that before I get back locked in on football and knowing that that’s going to be my focus until I’m done playing.”
As for being involved in the entertainment world, that’s something newly minted billionaire Taylor Swift knows all about.
Thanks to her hugely successful The Eras Tour and growing music catalogue, Swift was formally recognised by Forbes as a billionaire on April 2, the first artist to achieve the status solely based on her music.
Other musical heavyweights including Rihanna and Jay-Z have earned the status but with the contribution of makeup, fashion and alcohol brands or other entertainment holdings.
Swift’s fortune includes more than $500 million in estimated wealth from royalties and touring, Forbes reports.
She has an estimated $125 million tied up in real estate and $500 million in her music catalogue.
And it seems her boyfriend’s family are all for the possibility of a Kelce-Swift wedding.
Travis Kelce’s sister-in-law Kylie Kelce, the wife of Kelce’s brother Jason, recently dropped the biggest hint yet that the pair could soon be walking down the aisle.
Speaking on the US Today Show, Kylie spoke of their “amazing” relationship, saying: “Ultimately, if Travis is happy, we’re happy.”
Last month, Kelce and Swift were even at the centre of baby rumours after an episode of his podcast saw him speak about US national basketball player Victor Wembanyama’s impressive height.
Kelce joked that Wembanyama was a “lab-grown NBA player”, given that he was more than 7 feet (213cm) tall.
Kelce quipped, as he casually took a sip of his drink: “Can’t wait until I f****** make one” — as in, help to “lab grow” a baby.
Brother Jason quickly jumped in to warn Kelce not to fuel the fires of online speculation with such comments.
“Do not give any of these other conspiracy theorists anything else to latch onto, please,” he pleaded, knowing that “Swifties” latch onto such comments for any sign of an impending engagement or pregnancy.
In the past, Kelce has praised Swift for her interest in the NFL, and the introduction of Swifties to the sport.
“She’s definitely brought a lot of new faces to the game, and it’s been fun to experience that,” he told CNN earlier this year.
“It’s fun seeing her enjoy the game of football, knowing it’s new to her life.
“It’s been fun to kind of gather the Swifties into Chiefs’ Kingdom and open them up to the football world and the sports world.
“It’s been cool to just experience all that.”
