“That’s my lady…” Travis Kelce said this last month while admitting how proud he is of “his girl,” Taylor Swift. Ever since they have come into a romantic relationship, they have been talked about on the internet often. But as it is rightly said, where there is smoke, there is fire!
For the tight end, too, it was something like that when his name was linked to one of the biggest singing sensations in the world. Among multiple topics, many criticized the couple for their money difference. As per Celebrity’s net worth, Taylor Swift holds around $1 billion, while her boyfriend, Travis Kelce’s net worth, is estimated at around $30 million. Therefore, because of this huge difference in income, the couple often faces backlashes. But Cam Newton recently supported the two, hyping Kelce as a perfect partner.

Newton noted that Swift’s financial success and independence were likely to bring something new and refreshing to Kelce’s life. He compares it to his own experience with his partner, Jasmin Brown, where he values her independence and self-sufficiency. The NFL quarterback admired Kelce for being a top NFL player even before Swift entered the picture, and he appreciated how their relationship seemed genuine and supportive beyond just financial aspects.
He continued, “I see Travis being around a person that he really admires….all the men that I know they love Hustlers as a woman yeah that’s true like when you make your own money like O baby and even for her it’s like bro she not dating no slouch Travis Kelce. He’s probably the top three recognizable faces in the NFL before Taylor Swift, so let’s put some respect on El Trovador.”
Newton mentioned that he enjoys seeing Kelce as a supportive partner at Swift’s shows, and he believes that such dynamics make their relationship enjoyable and special. The 35-year-old concludes by dismissing any negative comments or comparisons, focusing on the positive aspects of their bond. He explained with a gridiron example, “We celebrate not because the team scored the touchdown, my partner scored a touchdown. That’s what’s enjoyable, so that’s what I see [in their bond].”

Jimmy Kimmel joked about Travis Kelce’s newly signed contract?
Travis Kelce has currently become the highest-paid tight end in the NFL. He signed a 2-year, $34 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs in April. As this is supposed to be great and celebratory news for his fans, for comedian and show host Jimmy Kimmel, it was a point for his new joke. On his April 30 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, the comedian compared Kelce and Taylor Swift’s earnings. He went on to address fans that the tight end has recently earned “the new contract which is worth $34 million, or as Taylor Swift calls it, gum money.” He didn’t stop there. Kimmel, who once slammed Aaron Rodgers for his alleged comments on him, continued, “Can you imagine being in a relationship where you make $34 million and you’re still the broke boyfriend?”
