Travis Kelce ‘leaves Taylor Swift in Australia to fly back to Las Vegas on a private jet’ with the Chiefs star set to meet up with Patrick Mahomes and his teammates to continue Super Bowl celebrations
Travis Kelce has already left Taylor Swift and Australia to fly back to Las Vegas to continue partying with his Kansas City Chiefs teammates.
Kelce only landed in Sydney on Wednesday to meet up with his girlfriend and watch her perform one of her Eras Tour shows.
TMZ claim the tight end is flying back to Las Vegas to continue partying with his teammates after they won the Super Bowl in Sin City earlier this month.
Kelce is due to land in Las Vegas on Saturday morning after flying for roughly 15 hours in a journey similar to Swift’s when she flew from Japan to Nevada for the Super Bowl.
It’s claimed the Chiefs reunion in Las Vegas has been planned ever since the Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime.

It will be Kelce’s third trip to Vegas in two weeks. He was also there earlier this week to play some golf and relax with friends before flying out to meet up with Swift in Australia.
A Las Vegas DJ posted on Instagram that he had been booked by the Chiefs for an event on Friday night but it seems Kelce will not make it in time for that.
The tight end was fully embraced by his girlfriend’s loyal group of fans at Accor Stadium on Thursday night.
In one clip from the show, a grinning Kelce could be seen trading friendship bracelets with the Swifties. In another video, he waved at screaming fans as he walked by.
Swift decided to give two nods to her beau in the audience through her lyrics during the show.
During the second verse of her song ‘Long Live’ off her album ‘Speak Now’, Swift sang the line ‘We are the kings and the queens / You traded your baseball cap for a crown / When they gave us our trophies / And we held them up for our town.’
At the mention of trophies, Swift held her guitar up and seemed to point out in the direction of Kelce in the audience.

That drew cheers from the packed audience at the Accor Stadium in the Olympic Park suburb of Sydney.
Later in the show, Swift had an encore of her altered ‘Karma’ lyric, where she once again sang out ‘Karma is the guy on the Chiefs’ instead of ‘guy on the screen’.
The couple were reportedly staying together at the high-end hotel Crown Towers in a suite that runs up over $16,300 USD ($25,000 AUD).
Swift and Kelce also visited the Sydney Zoo during their time in the city – a move that was criticized by animal rights organization PETA.
The animal rights nonprofit organization released a statement saying the couple should ‘spend their time and money at a true sanctuary,’ instead.
In a shared statement, PETA Foundation’s Director of Captive Animal Welfare, Debbie Metzler, said, ‘While we understand all too well the appeal of seeing Australia’s wildlife, PETA hopes that next time Taylor and Travis want to see wild animals, they’ll spend their time and money at a true sanctuary.’
The popstar and her NFL boyfriend went on a date at the 16.5-hectare site earlier this week ahead of Swift’s three concerts in Australia’s biggest city, as they were even spotted even petting a little kangaroo.

Kelce sparked backlash with his antics after the parade, during which he appeared too drunk to speak
While Kelce is just getting into his offseason, it’s a busy time for Swift. She’ll play three more shows in Sydney before staging a long six-night stay in Singapore.
From there, she takes a nearly two-month break before continuing her Eras Tour in Europe.
Kelce and the Chiefs will resume their Super Bowl festivities after being criticized for going ahead with a ‘scaled down’ party after the deadly parade shooting in Kansas City.
He was seen in a Kansas City sports bar on the same day as the shooting alongside several teammates and their WAGs – including Mahomes’ wife Brittany.
Kelce was part of a small group that also included Chiefs punter Tommy Townsend, center Creed Humphrey, tight end Matt Bushman – and his wife Emily.
Sources told DailyMail.com that Mahomes booked the entire venue out for a select few members of the squad and their families. Many of Andy Reid’s team stayed away following the attack which left one person dead and dozens injured in Kansas City.
Kelce had already come under fire after posing for a smiling selfie with a police officer in the wake of the deadly shooting. He was also drunk at the parade and could barely speak and stand up without the assistance of his teammates.
