Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce Spotted on Surprise Dinner Date in New Orleans—Just 48 Hours Before the Super Bowl!
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce left fans stunned in New Orleans after they were spotted on a romantic dinner date at Lilette, a trendy French restaurant on Magazine Street, Friday night—just two days before the Super Bowl.
Typically, NFL players stay locked in their hotels this close to the biggest game of the season, but Kelce chose to step out with Swift ahead of what he has called “the biggest day of his career.”
Fans Caught the Moment—And Now It’s Going Viral!
Word quickly spread that the couple was dining at Lilette, and by the time they left, a crowd had gathered. Fans cheered and filmed as they walked out hand-in-hand, with Kelce waving before getting into a waiting car.
Kelce kept it casual in a tracksuit, while Swift stunned in a black lace dress and Larroudé Eleonor boots. Their appearance instantly went viral, with some fans even doubting it was really Kelce, given how close it is to game day.
Breaking Routine Before a Historic Super Bowl Showdown
The Chiefs are staying at the four-star Marriott near the French Quarter, about a 20-minute drive from the restaurant. While there’s no indication Kelce broke any team rules, his night out still surprised fans—especially considering his previous stance on staying focused before the Super Bowl.
“We’ve got one week, we do what we need to do, then we can party in Vegas for the rest of our lives,” Kelce said before last year’s big game.
The Chiefs are set to face the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday as they chase a historic Super Bowl three-peat, a feat that hasn’t been accomplished in modern NFL history.
Swift’s Arrival & Chiefs WAGs Gather in New Orleans
It’s unclear exactly when Swift arrived in Louisiana, but Brittany Mahomes, wife of Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, landed on Friday, along with several other Chiefs WAGs who posted their arrivals on social media.
Kelce’s Super Bowl Week: From Football to Politics
Kelce has been a hot topic all week—not just for football, but for questions about his relationship with Swift, her cats, and even a possible proposal. However, one of his most talked-about moments came when he addressed Donald Trump’s planned attendance at the Super Bowl.
When asked about Trump being in the stadium, Kelce responded:
“It’s awesome. It’s a great honor, I think, no matter who the President is. I’m excited because it’s the biggest game of my life, and having the President there—it’s the best country in the world, so it’s pretty cool.”
Trump, who previously said he “hates” Swift, surprisingly seems to be rooting for the same team this weekend. On Truth Social, he praised the Chiefs and their star tight end, writing:
“Two great quarterbacks in this game. Also, an unbelievable running back, and the absolute best tight end in football (Ever!).”
With Swift and Kelce’s romance, Super Bowl history on the line, and even presidential politics in the mix, Sunday’s game is shaping up to be one of the most-watched in history.
