While Travis Kelce has achieved huge fame in the NFL, his rumored romance Taylor Swift – and her appearance at last weekend’s Kansas City Chiefs game – has put the Super Bowl-winning tight end on the worldwide map! Access Hollywood is looking back at Travis’ romantic history in the spotlight, starting with his 2016 reality dating show “Catching Kelce.”
When Access spoke to him about the show, he told us what he was looking for in a partner.
“I need confidence that she can be in such a limelight an athlete is in. On top of that, be able to be respectful, polite and classy,” he shared at the time.
Travis, as he describes himself, is a complex mix of traits. He acknowledges being both a “big jerk” and a “loving guy,” indicating a range of behaviors and attitudes.
In his own words, he values confidence, respect, politeness, and classiness in a partner, traits he believes align with Taylor, the woman he is currently dating.
In 2016, Travis appeared on the reality show “Catching Kelsey,” where 50 women from 50 states competed for his affection.
