Taylor Swift is putting her wedding plans with Travis Kelce on hold for the moment. The 14-time Grammy award-winning artist is giving her fiancé room to breathe as he struggles with an uncertain future in the NFL.
Kelce had a really tough season with the Kansas City Chiefs, as they missed the playoffs. The tight end is now facing a big challenge as he stares down the possibility of leaving the sport of football altogether. However, he’s still got an enormous support system behind him, particularly with his partner.
Swift knows that Kelce is struggling right now and is reportedly doing her best to cheer him up. Many sources have indicated that her number one priority is supporting Kelce through this tough time and spending more time with him. The pop singer has also put her wedding plans on the back burner for the time being and is going to refocus on them after Kelce makes his important career decision.

Swift Is Staying Positive Around Kelce
Taylor Swift knows the emotional weight that Travis Kelce has on his shoulders right now. Many fans have already seen the sign of the burden weighing on Kelce’s mind as he grapples with a reality where he’s not playing on the field anymore.
At 36 years old, Kelce could technically still go on the field, and he did look sharp this season as well. However, it certainly seems like the Chiefs icon is seriously considering retiring from the sport for the first time ever. Kelce kept the door open for any possibility and has stated that if he feels truly confident to play week in and out, he will stay.
This is perhaps also the perhaps the first time that Kelce and Swift find each other facing a hard time. The two partners have largely enjoyed a spectacular run in their careers for some time now, since they’ve been dating. It now seems that they’re in for their real first test in their relationship, and Swift is doing her best to stay positive during this time.
Kelce Has A Tough Decision On His Hands
Kansas City Chiefs had a humiliating season after being knocked out before reaching the playoffs. It marked the first time the Chiefs missed the playoffs since 2014 and seemingly took a toll on Travis Kelce.
Kelce now feels a bit defeated about the prospect of playing once again in the NFL. Even though he still loves the sport, he knows it’s going to be a challenge at this age. However, he’s going to take his time and reportedly make his decision before the Super Bowl comes around. In the meantime, he has his fiancée Taylor Swift, by his side to make things lighter.
