Swift entered the evening with a total of nine nominations, making her this year’s most nominated artist.

Kelce sat in the front row of the Dolby Theatre, watching on proudly as his fiancee took home seven awards by the end of the night.

The pair locked lips and held hands as the gongs kept coming for the Cruel Summer singer.

Swift and Kelce have been together almost three years and got engaged in the fall.

 

 

 

She publicly thanked Kelce in her speech after winning Pop Album of the Year for 2025’s The Life of a Showgirl.

“This album probably also feels very happy and confident and free,” she said.

“[That’s] because that’s the way that I get to feel every single day of my life because of my fiancé, who’s here tonight.”

A beaming Kelce headed to the awards bash days after confirming his future in the NFL.

 

 

 

The 36-year-old headed into this offseason pondering the prospect of retirement.

His Kansas City Chiefs endured their first losing season since 2014 and missed out on the playoffs.

Kelce, 36, has since penned a new three-year deal with the organization.

The tight end will return in 2026 as he looks for a fourth career Super Bowl ring.

Kelce signed a three-year, $54.7m deal that can be worth up to $57.7m, per NFL Network.

The report added that Kelce will make $12m guaranteed in 2026, with $3m in incentives.

 

 

 

“Chiefs Kingdom, let’s go, baby! It’s official,” Kelce said in a statement Monday.

“I’m excited for 2026 and just excited to put on the Chiefs uniform in front of you guys again.

“Let’s get Arrowhead rocking, baby. We’ll see you guys in a few months.”
