On Friday evening, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce captured attention in New Orleans as they dined at Lilette, an elegant French restaurant located on Magazine Street.
Typically, players remain at their hotels as the NFL season’s crucial game approaches, making this outing—occurring less than 48 hours prior to the Super Bowl—quite surprising.
In a bid to spend quality time with his girlfriend before what he has described as the most significant game of his career, Kelce opted to enjoy the evening with Swift. As the couple exited the restaurant, enthusiastic fans gathered outside to catch a glimpse of them, and they were observed holding hands. The news of their outing quickly spread, drawing a crowd to the steps, and the moment was captured on video.
During their evening in New Orleans, Taylor Swift appeared radiant in a black dress paired with Larroude Eleonor boots, while Travis opted for a relaxed look in a tracksuit. As they prepare to pursue a historic third consecutive Super Bowl victory, Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs are set to face the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
Despite the unexpected nature of Kelce’s outing so close to the big game, there is no indication that he violated any team protocols by being with Swift. Initially, some social media users expressed skepticism regarding the video of their arrival at the restaurant, suspecting a case of mistaken identity. Fox is set to broadcast Super Bowl 59 in 2025, which will commence at 6:30 p.m. ET. This matchup will mark the second Super Bowl encounter between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles in three seasons.
