Travis Kelce Calls Taylor Swift’s Christmas Gift the ‘Best’ — But Keeps It Private

Travis Kelce is praising his fiancée Taylor Swift for what he called the “best” Christmas gift he received this year — but fans hoping for details were left guessing. Speaking on the December 31 episode of New Heights**, the Kansas City Chiefs star said the gift was deeply meaningful but intentionally kept private.

“The best gift that I got was from Taylor,” Kelce said. “But it gives away things that we’re trying to keep in house, so not gonna say it.”

Keeping Their Relationship Low-Key

Kelce’s comments reflect the couple’s ongoing effort to protect their personal lives despite intense public interest. Since announcing their engagement in August 2025, the pair have largely avoided sharing intimate details, even as they remain one of the most talked-about celebrity couples. Kelce also revealed that Swift’s older brother, Austin Swift, gave him a Christmas gift he appreciated — and once again declined to say what it was.

“The Swifts are good gift givers,” said Kelce’s brother and podcast co-host Jason Kelce, a sentiment Travis quickly agreed with.

A Glimpse Into Their Gift-Giving Dynamic

While Kelce chose to stay tight-lipped about what Swift gave him, he has previously shared insight into the gifts he’s given her. During the Christmas Eve episode of New Heights, Kelce joked that one of Swift’s favorite presents from him was a bread slicer.

“I bought it because she’s been throwing together so much sourdough,” he said, referencing Swift’s well-known love of baking.

The lighthearted exchange offered a rare glimpse into the couple’s everyday dynamic — one rooted in humor and shared routines rather than spectacle.

Wedding Planning Underway

Kelce and Swift, who have been together for more than two years, are currently planning their wedding. Sources close to the couple say the process is a joint effort.

“They’re both equally involved and excited,” a source previously told PEOPLE. “Nothing feels rushed or one-sided. They’re approaching it as a partnership.”

Another source added that the couple intends to keep their wedding celebrations private, with a focus on close friends and family rather than a large public event.

Privacy Over Publicity

Despite frequent public appearances — including sporting events and award shows — Kelce and Swift have consistently drawn boundaries around what they share. By declining to reveal the Christmas gift, Kelce reinforced that approach, signaling that not every meaningful moment will be made public. For fans, the mystery only adds to the intrigue. For Kelce and Swift, it’s a reminder that even in the spotlight, some things are meant to stay just between them.
