EXCLUSIVE: Travis Kelce arrives in Buenos Aires to see his love Taylor Swift as she kicks off her Eras Tour in Latin America
Travis Kelce has landed in Buenos Aires to reunite with girlfriend Taylor Swift as she kicks off the Latin American leg of her Eras Tour.
There has been a lot of speculation about whether or not the Kansas City Chiefs star would travel to Argentina to support his new club during his bye week.
And as Swift took the stage for her first show in South America on Thursday night, Kelce, 34, was spotted spotted supporting his teammate Patrick Mahomes at a gala event for the quarterback’s charity, 15 and the Mahomies Foundation in Kansas City.
But lo and behold, the tight end made the trip to see his girlfriend, proving that distance is no obstacle for the hottest new couple in Hollywood.
DailyMail.com can reveal that Kelce left Kansas City at 11pm on Thursday and landed in Panama City for an hour to refuel before flying to Buenos Aires on Friday.

After attending four of Kelce’s games this season, the NFL star is returning the favor during his time off, with his team not scheduled to play again until November 20.
Many fans were hoping to catch a glimpse of the athlete on the show during the two-week break in his schedule.
Swift has shown her support for her new boyfriend by attending several games at Arrowhead Stadium, and hosted a watch party for the WAGs at her New York apartment as the Chiefs took on the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
Despite his absence Thursday, Swift appeared in good spirits during the opening show of her three-day performance in Argentina.
She added two surprise songs to her setlist: The Very First Night and Labyrinth, with the telling lyrics: ‘oh no, I’m falling in love again’.
Travis teased his possible bye week plans on his ‘New heights‘ podcast with brother Jason Kelce this week.
Travis was asked if he was looking forward to any upcoming plans.
“No, not really,” he said.

But he quickly added: ‘Maybe I’d just say f*** it and just go somewhere, I don’t know.
“My skin is getting very pale, so I need to go somewhere sunny… closer to the equator.”
Jason then asked if his brother would be traveling “south of the equator,” where Argentina is of course, which got a big laugh from Travis.
The tight end made no further comment on his brother’s joke.
At another point in the episode, Kelce said he didn’t like making farewell week plans in advance.
“You just don’t know how healthy you’re going to be or how you’re going to feel, whether you win or lose,” he said.
“I try not to go out when we’re losing here.

Swift wasn’t in Germany to watch her boyfriend, but it looks like she kept an eye on things anyway.
Eagle-eyed fans noticed that Swift had “liked” a post from People’s Instagram account celebrating the win, as well as a piece of history written by Kelce.
Travis will reportedly be back in time for training next Monday.
