Finally, the couple has shown their love for each other in a pretty celebratory way. Earlier this week, Kelce bought shares in a racehorse named Swift Delivery, which Swifties immediately took as a nod to the singer.

Kelce also noted that night that the key to a fulfilling career in sports is to be “curious and adventurous in different career fields, knowing that football will soon be over for everyone.” Of course, many Swifties believe that Swift was the one who encouraged Kelce to explore other avenues, such as television and film, especially given that Kelce has many big-screen projects in the pipeline.
