Taylor Swift attended MTV's VMAs in September, and made the news for something other than her record-breaking Eras tour."Yesterday, Travis Kelce was one of the top 5 selling NFL players and saw a nearly 400% spike in sales throughout the Fanatics network of sites, including NFLShop.com," Fanatics explained to the publication.
Though it’s unclear exactly what drove the spike in purchases, the surge in jersey sales coincides with Taylor's visit to Arrowhead Stadium to witness the Chiefs' commanding 41-10 victory over the Bears, where she was seen bonding with Travis’ mom while cheering him on.
While the pair seem to be going strong, there’s more adding fuel to the rumors that Travis is hoping for a career boost thanks to Taylor - Travis’ ex-girlfriend Maya Benberry recently issued a public warning to the singer, suggesting, Travis could be dating her mainly for clout.
Travis Kelce on the red carpet“Taylor seems like such a fun girl with a beautiful spirit so I wish her the best of luck but I wouldn’t be a girls' girl if I didn’t advise her to be smart!” Maya told Daily Mail. “I’m sure by now she has mastered the ability to see who is really there for her - and who is just using her,” she went on. “I can only hope that she comes out the teacher in this situation and not the student.”
Even more, Maya implied that Tavis has a history of infidelity in relationships. “The man that I knew him to be when we dated,” she continued. “Only time will tell but like the saying always goes, once a cheater, always a cheater.”
Maya and Travis' romantic relationship lasted a mere two months after she emerged as the winner on "Catching Kelce," a reality show featuring 49 other contestants representing all 50 states competing for the affections of the NFL player. Following their breakup in 2016, Maya posted a series of tweets, which have since been deleted, implying that Travis had been unfaithful to her with sports broadcaster Kayla Nicole, who he dated up until last year.
Travis Kelce's net worth is reportedly $30 million, while Taylor Swift's net worth is reportedly $740 million.
