At least two suspects were arrested over the terror plot – and the threat was serious enough to cancel all of Swift’s events in Austria.

The suspects reportedly had chemical and biological substances to build a so-called dirty bomb, and detailed plans to carry out a mass attack on the expected 65,000 fans at the stadium, local outlet Kurier reports.

The three Vienna shows were some of the last of the European leg of the Eras Tour, and it was heartbreaking for her to have to cancel the shows, reps said.

According to a person close to Travis Kelce’s entourage, he was on the phone with the pop superstar as the situation unfolded to comfort her.

“Travis contacted Taylor very fast and talked with her for a while to show support and see how she was feeling with that tense situation,” the source told The U.S. Sun.

“You can tell that he was helping her feel better and made her laugh, to make this situation and the day she went through end up on a more fun note.

“He always wants to make her laugh, and he loves to hear her laugh and feel good. After a day that intense and this scary situation, he was doing everything to make her feel better.”

Kelce and Swift spent most of the summer together after he finished the NFL season with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end following her through Europe for the Eras Tour.

But he returned home for an NFL training camp a few weeks ago – which meant he was thousands of miles away when the terror plot was uncovered.

Despite the distance, sources told The U.S. Sun that Kelce always has his phone available for Swift if she needs him.

“It’s not easy to deal with that distance, and he wants to be very supportive and [let her know] that she can count on him,” the source said.

“He has one of his phones always right next to him when he goes to sleep in case she needs to talk to him, and they did spend some long hours on the phone yesterday as it’s not a common situation to deal with, and he always wants to be Taylor’s rock and best fan and number one supporter whatever happens.

“He was feeling relieved that the concerts got canceled, as it’s the best decision to be taken in this kind of context. ”

Even though Swift is safe following the terror threats, Kelce was ready to jet across the Atlantic at a moment’s notice for her.

Taylor Swift terror threats

Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has been derailed by terror threats in Austria.

Three teenagers were arrested after a plot was uncovered to launch an attack using knives, machetes, and a “dirty bomb.”

Swift was set to perform three shows at Ernst Happel Stadium, but police uncovered the terror plot just a day before her concerts, causing the cancellation.

A 19-year-old allegedly planned to drive his car into an area that would hold 20,000 fans and “kill as many people as possible,” according to Austrian security officials.

Concert organizers said they had “no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows” following the uncovering of the terror plot.

Despite being in the heat of training camp, he was ready to drop it all to comfort Swift through the scary situation.

“He even suggested flying to Austria to be there for her if she wanted him to do so, even if it was for a day or two, but Taylor is going to keep working and focus on the next dates, with the London concert, to wrap up the Euro part in the best way,” the source said.

“That was a bit of a crisis moment because you never know how to deal with that, and having the concerts canceled isn’t common or frequent at all, as this kind of situation with a terrorist threat is very scary and has to be taken seriously to keep everyone safe.”

Swift is working on moving past the situation, taking some days off after the Vienna incident and heading back to London to close out the European leg of the Eras Tour.

Despite the shock, sources close to her entourage shared that Swift is working hard to ensure the remainder of her tour is just as exciting as it was before the terror threats.

“The news has been kind of a shock for the whole team, as everyone was looking forward to those concerts in Austria as they are in the last part of the Eras Tour in Europe,” the source previously told The U.S. Sun.

“There was a huge excitement to play in such a historical city, but also a big disappointment to have to cancel those shows.

“The terrorist threat made the team tense in a way that it’s not something easy to deal with, as everyone wants to be safe and just enjoy the tour and work in the best environment possible.

“The tour in general and especially in Europe has been going fantastic, and there is a huge disappointment that the concerts are canceled, but everyone is very understanding of the situation and grateful that the Austrian police and the government took the best decision for the security and safety of each and all of us, from the fans to Taylor, to the crews and the team.

“We are going to keep working for the next shows coming in London after the stop in Austria, but it wasn’t an easy day, that is for sure.

“The goal is to wrap up the Euro part of the tour in the best way.”

Swift has five more shows at Wembley Stadium in London before heading back to North America for shows in Canada and the US.
