Travis Kelce made sure his fiancée, Taylor Swift, didn’t miss a moment of Team USA’s thrilling win in men’s hockey at the Winter Olympics. The U.S. team clinched a dramatic 2-1 overtime victory against Canada, securing their first gold medal in the event since the iconic 1980 Miracle on Ice.

This intense rivalry took center stage in Milan just before the Closing Ceremony, prompting millions across North America to rise early for the 8:10 a.m. ET puck drop.

Despite the early hour, Kelce was more than willing to get up and watch the game with his fiancée. The Kansas City Chiefs star shared on his popular New Heights podcast that they watched the entire match from New York.

“It was just so epic,” Kelce enthusiastically told his older brother, Jason, who attended the Winter Olympics with his wife, Kylie.

The Kansas City Chiefs star revealed on the latest episode of his New Heights podcast that he and the pop sensation watched ‘the entire game’ from New York.  

‘It’s just so f***ing epic, man,’ he told his older brother, Jason, who had attended the Winter Olympics with his wife Kylie.

The NFL star revealed that he and famous fiancée Taylor Swift watched the entire game 

‘From the first drop of the puck that game was just non-stop action. It had me on the edge of my seat at 8:05 in the morning. Loved every minute of it man.’

The tight end also shared that it had been their father Ed’s birthday on Sunday, with the brothers agreeing that there wasn’t a ‘more fitting’ way to celebrate the Kelce patriarch’s big day than to watch USA win gold.   

‘So we gave him a shout and spoke to him during the game,’ the three-time Super Bowl winner added. 

Swift previously credited her NFL beau for transforming her into a sports fan, admitting during her long-awaited debut on the New Heights podcast last summer that her football knowledge was practically non-existent when she first met him. 

The songstress gushed about the athlete being ‘so non-judgmental about people,’ adding that he didn’t mind that she lacked knowledge about football when they met. 

‘Jason, on our first date, I legitimately asked him what it was like when the Chiefs played the Eagles in the Super Bowl (in February 2023) and he looked across the field, across the line of scrimmage, and saw his brother standing five feet in front of him on the field,’ she shared.

‘It didn’t happen,’ Jason chimed in, as both Travis and Swift laughed.

‘And he didn’t even look at me… I now know what an insane question that was. He was like: “Actually I’m on the offense and my brother is the offense and I’m only on the field at the same time as the defense.” I thought everyone was out there at the same time,’ Swift shared.

Now, however, the ‘Opalite’ hitmaker is a seasoned veteran when it comes to sports events. 

She has attended two out of the last three Super Bowls to support Kelce, whose Chiefs won their second consecutive title in 2024 before losing last year to the Philadelphia Eagles. 

The ‘Love Story’ singer and NFL star have also enjoyed date nights at a New York Yankees game and Game 4 of the NHL’s Stanley Cup Finals between the Florida Panthers and the Edmonton Oilers last year. 

The USA men’s gold-medal victory over bitter rival Canada came just days after the American women’s team topped the podium in Milan in similar fashion. 

Kelce didn’t share whether he and his A-list fiancée had also watched the clash between the American and Canadian women. 

However, both he and Jason praised the champions on their podcast, sending a touching message to Laila Edwards, the fellow Cleveland Heights native whose family Travis had helped send to Milan. 

‘I’ll let you have [the title] because you’re the only one to have gold, so a little tip of the cap to you Laila,’ Kelce said after the hockey star had jokingly referred to herself as ‘the best athlete to come out of Cleveland Heights.’ 

He added: ‘That was awesome to see you go and get it.’ 

‘She was very, very good throughout the Olympics,’ Jason said. ‘One of the things after talking to her, you realize she is from the Heights, man. There’s just this humbleness but also she’s a great person… Just so proud of all of them. It’s an incredible moment to win a gold medal.’
