Taylor Swift arrived at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., Sunday alongside her father, Scott, to support Travis Kelce as the Kansas City Chiefs took on the New England Patriots.
The Grammy winner was also seen alongside bestie Brittany Mahomes and Ashley Avignone.
The “Cruel Summer” songstress sported a white beanie with a red stripe and a Chiefs crewneck sweater with black tights underneath.
This is the first time the singer’s father has been seen in the stands since the two began dating — which Taylor revealed in her latest Time magazine interview was well before her first stadium appearance.
Kelce and his girlfriend’s father have previously gotten in some quality time, including a dinner in Argentina and even dancing to Taylor’s music at her concert.
Scott’s appearance in the stands also follows rumors that the tight end has asked for his blessing to propose to the pop star.
A source told Page Six, “Scott has been asked for his blessing and has wholeheartedly given it, and Travis has been talking to friends about a ring.”
Earlier this month, Taylor watched — in what fans were convinced was Mahomes’ red coat — Kelce and the Chiefs lose to the Green Bay Packers, 27-19.
After the game, she was photographed walking out of Arrowhead Stadium hand-in-hand with her sullen beau.
However, his sadness didn’t last too long. Later in the night, they were seen looking merry at the Chiefs’ post-game party at a Christmas-themed bar and even gifted fans their first on-the-lips kissing photo.
Sadly, the “Anti-Hero” hitmaker and the two-time Super Bowl champion, both 34, didn’t extend their PDA into her birthday week. Instead, the singer celebrated her 34th birthday on Dec. 13 with celebrity pals in New York City.
Meanwhile, Kelce had a mandatory football practice scheduled on his girlfriend’s special day, keeping him at his home base in Kansas City, Mo.
Despite not being able to celebrate the global superstar’s birthday together, the couple plans on seeing each other a lot more over the next few weeks now that Taylor is on hiatus from her Eras Tour until February 2024.

“Taylor’s still smitten with Travis. But she realizes that the hard work in their relationship is about to start as they will be spending weeks at a time together,” an insider told the Daily Mail in late November.
They will likely be hanging out at the $6 million mansion Kelce purchased in October since he is still tied down for the NFL season.
The pair first connected in July after the NFL star “adorably,” as Taylor put it, called her out on his “New Heights” podcast for making it too difficult for him to slip her his number while she was in Kansas City on tour.
“We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time [to hang out] that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other,” she told Time magazine in her 2023 Person of the Year profile.
They confirmed romance rumors on Sept. 24 when Taylor showed up to support Kelce at his game against the Chicago Bears.
After the big win, the pair were seen exiting Arrowhead Stadium and heading to an afterparty, where they were photographed getting cozy.
Taylor, who notoriously kept her six-year relationship with her ex Joe Alwyn very private, told Time she’s done hiding every aspect of her life.
“When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care,” she said.
“The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone. And we’re just proud of each other.”
