Taylor Swift has gotten the stamp of approval from the daughter of the Kansas City ChiefsCEO as she welcomed the pop icon to the family.
Swift, who has been dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce, has gotten some slack from NFL fans for "taking over" media coverage and for being a "distraction" as the team has lost three out of their last five games.
Despite the losing streak, Gracie Hunt, the daughter of Kansas City Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt, says Swift is "wonderful" and loves that she is coming to the Chiefs games.
Taylor Swift Is Welcomed Into The Kansas City Chiefs Family
Grace Hunt raved about the "Love Story" singer on 'Outkick the Morning with Charly Arnolt', claiming that "she is wonderful, beautiful, brilliant, all of the things.
"And it's been so much fun to get to have her coming to Chiefs games," she added. The pop icon has attended several Chiefs games since September, cheering on her boyfriend and the entire team. She has even brought some famous friends along, including to the 'Sunday Night Football' game two months ago. Taylor arrived with actor Ryan Reynoldsand actress Blake Lively, as well as 'Wolverine' star Hugh Jackman.
When speaking on Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's romance, Gracie said, "We're so happy and excited for them."
Gracie isn't the only Chiefs' family member to speak out on Taylor Swift's new relationship with Travis as Kansas City Chiefs head coach, Andy Reid said he is "a big fan" and is "glad she was here."
"I hope she enjoyed [the game],” Reid told PEOPLE of the recent Chiefs win over the New England Patriots two weeks ago. “She’s got a great guy she’s dating right now, so I’m happy for both of them,” he added.
That was not the only time the Kansas City Chiefs head coach vocalized his support of Travis and Taylor. In fact, two months ago, Reid “joked about setting Kelce up” during his interview with Outkick.
“She’s a good girl, she’s into it, we’re glad she’s here,” Reid added of the pop icon at the time.
Travis Kelce Speaks On 'Frustrating' Kansas City Chiefs Games
During the Kansas City Chiefs game on Christmas Eve, Travis Kelce did not hold back his emotions as he was seen slamming his helmet (and breaking it) during the first half. A few days after the loss, Travis spoke out about how "frustrated" he was, but how he also regrets throwing his helmet.
“He’s [Andy Reid] looking out for me, and I love him for it. I didn’t go back out there and play good,” Kelce said on his “New Heights” podcast, which he hosts with his brother, Jason Kelce.
“He wanted to see the fire in me, and I reacted in a bad way. He wanted to just get the best out of me, and right now I’m just not playing my best football and I gotta f–-ing lock the f–k in, be more accountable for him, be more accountable for my teammates,” he added.
“I gotta keep my f–-ing cool because as a leader on this team that’s not how you switch the momentum," Travis continued, before speaking on how “frustrating” it is right now for the team.
“It’s a frustrating f–ing experience right now,” Kelce said on his podcast. “Every single day we’re going in here fixing it, I promise you guys, it’s not just one guy, it’s not just me playing like dog s–t, it’s not just not being able to get the run game going, it’s not just us not being on the same page passing wise, everybody’s in this f–king thing together.”
