When Taylor Swift marked her 34th birthday on December 13, she threw a star-studded celebration in New York City, attended by A-listers like Blake Lively and Gigi Hadid.
However, one notable absence from the festivities was Taylor's boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Here's the reason behind his absence.
Amidst Taylor's birthday revelry, Travis Kelce, the NFL star, was gearing up for a crucial Week 15 game against the Patriots.
Having secured two consecutive victories against the Green Bay Packers and the Buffalo Bills, Kelce's dedication to his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, took precedence over the birthday celebration.
Sources close to the situation revealed to Entertainment Tonight that Kelce is unwavering in his commitment to perform at his best on and off the field.
With team practices being of paramount importance and mandatory, Kelce decided to remain in Kansas City, focusing on the upcoming game rather than joining Taylor in New York.
Despite his absence on December 13, it doesn't imply that Kelce has no plans to celebrate with Swift.
According to insider information from last weekend, the Chiefs tight end has arranged an romantic dinner for the couple and is also in the process of orchestrating a semi-surprise party with the assistance of some of his closest friends.
