Being in relationships with men who have mustaches and consistently cheering them on in their sports is what puts Olivia Dunne and Taylor Swift on a similar wavelength. For instance, Olivia showed her support for her MLB pitcher boyfriend, Paul Skenes, at PNC Park last year. As for the beloved singer, NFL fans are quite familiar with Taylor attending games of the Kansas City Chiefs to back her partner, Travis Kelce. Now, imagine if these circles of affection could intersect; how would you respond? Let’s explore one such instance.

On February 9, the Kansas City Chiefs were in the Super Bowl 2025 to take on the Philadelphia Eagles. The Travis Kelce-starring Chiefs were aiming to get the third consecutive Super Bowl ring. And Kelce’s lady love, Taylor Swift, was all set to cheer for the Kansa-based outfit. Well, in such a situation, whom did Olivia Dunne and her boyfriend Paul Skenes support? The power couple is known for supporting those on the field. So did Travis find their grace this time? 

Before the much-celebrated NFL Super Bowl 2025, Olivia Dunne revealed her preference. In an interaction with The Sun, the defending national gymnastics champion said, “I do love the Chiefs.” Is there any special reason for choosing the Chiefs – perhaps Kelce himself? While replying to such, Livvy said, “He’s such a great guy and I respect him as an athlete as well.” And anything for the pop sensation? The social media heartthrob was all smiles for Taylor.

Certainly! Olivia proudly identifies as a Swiftie. But she isn’t someone who suffers from showing partiality. According to her, Travis’s involvement has made the romance between him and Taylor Swift something worth celebrating. “[I admire] the way he [Travis Kelce] balances being in the spotlight [with Swift] and being an amazing athlete,” she said in the interaction. But how did she display her support for the 35-year-old tight end on the day when he needed it most? By attending the game, obviously. 

On February 9, the NFL’s Instagram handle shared a clip of Livvy and her boyfriend Paul Skenes arriving at the Caesars Superdome. Unfortunately, the couple’s backing of Travis didn’t result in success for him or his team. How? The Eagles took away the Super Bowl Ring, defeating the Chiefs. A bad day for Travis Kelce in the office! But Livvy’s emotions for him might not experience any low. Any specific reason? The gymnast, however, had some big words saved for Travis.

Olivia Dunne has had some bonds with Travis Kelce because of working together for the energy drink sponsor Accelerator. But the emotions in her for the NFL player aren’t the result of that marketing engagement only. Those go beyond. An example might help. Last year, Livvy appeared in the Best of Both Worlds podcast with Flau’jae Johnson. In the podcast, she was put on the NFL “power couple” quiz and was asked about her favorite one. Well, Livvy didn’t vote for Simone Biles and her husband Jonathan Owens. Rather, she threw her weight behind Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. The reason?

Again, praise followed. To back her selection, Olivia Dunne said, “Travis Kelce is super nice. Like he’s the man. He’s a good guy.” But was there any specific reason to shed light on Travis’ positive side? Yes, Dunne had. She revealed that Travis extended a significant deal for Livvy and her MLB star boyfriend, Paul Skenes, stating, “If you or Paul ever needs tickets to a Taylor concert or a hookup, just let me know.” That’s called an offer! On Sunday, Livvy had the chance to show her gratitude for the ‘Love Story’ couple. She acted accordingly only.
