While cheering on her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift embraced her “Aunt Tay” role during a Kansas City Chiefs game on November 10. The pop icon, who was in attendance to support Kelce and his team at Arrowhead Stadium, took a moment away from the action to pose with her fellow WAG (wives and girlfriends of sports players) Chariah Gordon’s 7-month-old daughter, Ci.
Gordon, who is engaged to Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr., captured the sweet moment and shared it on her Instagram story, showing Swift holding baby Ci. The adorable photo, captioned “Aunt Tay and Baby Ci,” quickly made waves online, delighting fans of both Swift and the Chiefs.
Taylor, who is 34, was there not only to support Kelce but to spend some quality family time as well. She attended the game with her parents, Scott and Andrea Swift, who have shown growing support for their daughter’s relationship with Kelce. Scott Swift even struck up a friendly conversation with Kelce’s father, Ed, and the two were photographed bonding in the stadium, each donning Chiefs jerseys in a show of mutual support. Meanwhile, Andrea joined in the fun by sporting a red handbag with a prominent “87” charm, Travis Kelce’s jersey number, showing her approval for her daughter’s romance in her own subtle way.
Following the Chiefs’ thrilling victory over the Denver Broncos, Taylor joined Travis, tennis pro Francis Tiafoe, and his girlfriend, fellow tennis player Ayan Broomfield, in celebrating the team’s ongoing successful season. The foursome enjoyed their time together in a private VIP suite, taking selfies and photos to commemorate the win. In one fun moment, Scott Swift playfully photobombed their celebration, adding a bit of family charm to the post-game excitement.
This was a particularly memorable weekend for Swift, who had even more reasons to celebrate. Alongside the Chiefs’ win, she received six Grammy nominations for the upcoming 2025 awards, including a nomination for Album of the Year for The Tortured Poets Department. This latest recognition places Swift as the most-nominated female artist in the category, with seven total nominations in her career, breaking her tie with Barbra Streisand.
Swift’s heartwarming interaction with baby Ci, her shared celebration with Kelce, and the recent Grammy nominations add up to a week of victories in both her personal life and career, endearing her even more to fans who appreciate her genuine, down-to-earth moments.
