Taylor Swift and her family welcomed Travis Kelce and his loved ones to their Thanksgiving celebration in Nashville this year.
The pop superstar, 34, and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, brought their families together for the holiday, with a source telling People, ‘Taylor and her family were excited to host the Kelces this year.’ Taylor and her dad Scott and mom Andrea were also joined by Travis’ brother, Jason Kelce, 37, and his family.
‘Taylor and Travis had a great Thanksgiving together with their families,’ the insider shared, adding that it was the ‘first Thanksgiving they celebrated together’ as last year Taylor was in South America for her Eras Tour during Thanksgiving weekend.
‘[Travis’ brother] Jason was there with his family and kids too. It was very festive and special.’
The Thanksgiving gathering took place ahead of Kelce’s crucial game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Friday, November 29th.

Jason and his wife Kylie Kelce, share three daughters and are currently expecting a fourth one.
Earlier this week it was also reported that Taylor has roped boyfriend Travis into getting his hands dirty in the kitchen this year.
The NFL superstar was reportedly on ‘dishes duty.’
‘Taylor is spending the holiday with Travis and several family members,’ a source told DailyMail.com. ‘Taylor and Travis are both grateful to have the day off so that they can just really relax and enjoy their second Thanksgiving together.’
The insider noted that Taylor is relishing the chance to cook up a feast for the group – while she has made her partner aware of the fact he’ll be helping out with the clean-up.
‘Taylor really enjoys cooking and is already prepping tomorrow’s big meal,’ the source said. ‘Travis loves her food and is on dishes duty this year.’
After the festivities, Taylor traveled to Kansas City, where she and Travis’ mom Donna, 72, cheered him on at Arrowhead Stadium.
The joint family dinner came as a surprise after Travis’ mom Donna revealed that her family does not have a big dinner planned for Thanksgiving Day, and that Taylor would probably not be joining them.
‘I don’t think so. She’s kind of busy right now. She still has her tour to do,’ she shared on the Today show, one week before Thanksgiving, in reference to Swift’s Eras Tour, which wraps up on December 8th.
‘I am going to be at a football game. Travis is playing the day after Thanksgiving. You know, football is always the holidays. It’s football’s family,’ Donna added.
‘Not that anything’s planned. I think we’re just going to be at the football game.’

Travis’ mom previously said she would not be spending the day with Taylor – explaining that the Kelce family didn’t have a big dinner in their plans; Travis and Donna seen in 2023
Swift has publicly been dating Kelce since last September, when she was in a luxury suite, alongside Donna, for a Chiefs’ game against the Chicago Bears.
Taylor sent fans into a frenzy as she matched with Donna during Friday’s game at Arrowhead Stadium.
The Grammy winner supported her boyfriend during the Chiefs dramatic win over the Las Vegas Raiders.
Shortly before the match kicked off, the Bad Blood songstress was seen arriving to the venue – and was accompanied by both Donna and her father, Scott.
And fans were quick to point out that Taylor and Donna opted to wear matching 87 necklaces during the game – which is in tribute to Travis’ jersey number.
Swift chose to wear a silver-chained necklace with a glittering 87 pendant, while Kelce’s mother donned a flashy, gold version.
Taylor is no stranger to sporting jewelry to cheer on the Chiefs tight end. Earlier this year in February, she notably wore a $4,250 gold ’87’ necklace at the Super Bowl.
Taylor will wrap up her tour in Vancouver, Canada, on December 8 after 149 shows and two years on the road.
An insider told DailyMail.com: ‘This is such an emotional time for her already, but she is so thankful for everything that she has, and has worked for this year.’
‘This tour has been her life and the people on the tour have been her family and as it draws to a close, she has been super emotional – leaning on Travis and her family more than ever.’
And with so few dates to go, Taylor is struggling to accept the fact that it is nearly over because she doesn’t know what she will do to ‘fill’ her days in the aftermath.
