Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are reportedly going through the \u201cfirst real test\u201d in their relationship as his potential NFL retirement looms amid their wedding planning.<\/p>\n

A source claimed the pop star, 36, has been focused more on lifting Kelce\u2019s \u201cdefeated\u201d spirits following the Kansas City Chiefs\u2019 losing season than on making wedding arrangements,\u00a0reports Daily Mail<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cTaylor is trying to put him in a better mood by spending more time with him and not bombarding him with wedding plans,\u201d the insider said.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe would want him to focus on [the wedding] after he makes his career decision because she knows how important that is to him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Swift is more focused on \u201ctrying to put [Kelce] in a better mood\u201d during the rough patch rather than wedding arrangements, according to a source.GC Images
\n<\/span><\/span>The source added that the \u201cFortnight\u201d singer is looking at the rough patch as the pair\u2019s \u201cfirst real test of their relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have been together and in love and have enjoyed the success of her tour and career and his Super Bowls and his career. Travis hasn\u2019t been in this position before where he is staring at his future with complete 20\/20 vision,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n

Kelce, 36, has been left feeling \u201ca bit defeated\u201d as retirement rumors hang in the air following the Chiefs\u2019 losing 2025-26 season.<\/p>\n

The professional tight end was\u00a0previously rumored to be considering retirement<\/a>\u00a0after the 2024-25 season. However, he ultimately decided to try for one more Super Bowl ring before he officially called it quits.<\/p>\n

The insider added that Kelce is feeling a \u201cbit defeated\u201d after the Kansas City Chiefs\u2019 losing 2025-26 season.
\n\u201cHe is used to still be playing, and he is missing not being on the field, which might bode well for his fans and the Chiefs if he decides to play another year,\u201d the insider said of Kelce\u2019s potential career plans, adding that the NFL star will \u201cmake the Chiefs well aware of his future plans by early March.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will know a few weeks after the Super Bowl if he will be returning or not. That is his timeline that he has set to make a decision to play one more year or not,\u201d they added.<\/p>\n

Still, Kelce has a bright future ahead with his soon-to-be wife at his side and career opportunities.<\/p>\n

Last month, Page Six exclusively reported that Swift and the \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast co-host\u00a0have their post-NFL life planned out<\/a>\u00a0with different projects.<\/p>\n
