Travis Kelce makes appearances in Taylor Swiftâs The End of an Era docuseries, but not in every episode.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is featured heavily in episode 4 of the Disney+ show.
Swift also offers insight into why her relationship with Kelce works.
In The End of an Era, Taylor Swift offers an unprecedented look behind the scenes of her Eras Tour and her life on the road. The singer didnât hide her relationship with Travis Kelce in the docuseries, either. While Kelce does not appear in every episode, Swiftâs then-boyfriend, now-fiancĂ©, is a supportive force throughout her tour.
The series sheds light on how they maintained their long-distance relationship as they both workedâand how much love they have for each other and their careers.
Below, a guide to all the Travis Kelce moments in the series, episode by episode.
Episode 1
YouTube
Kelce makes a phone cameo at two points in the episode, which was shot during Swiftâs August 2024 shows in London. While Kelce appeared onstage with her during a June performance in the U.K., the Kansas City Chiefs tight end had to return to the U.S. for training camp.
During a car ride in London in the doc, Swift calls Kelce, greeting her âbabyâ warmly. He marveled over how skilled Swift and her team were: âHow are you guys so good? You can just do a little like, in-the-back-room rehearsal and then go do this in front of everyone.â
She replied, âI love you. I donât know, how do you remember 36,000 plays that are all tactical missions and then just go do it? Itâs the same. Itâs basically the same job! I got songs to remember, you got plays to remember.â
âYou got teammates, I got teammates,â he added.
She finished, âYouâve got [Chiefs] coach [Andy] Reid, Iâve got my mom, [Andrea Swift].â
As they discuss her London show further, Kelce says, âI want to be there.â Swift playfully replied, âI want you to be there! Why do you have to be in the NFL?â
At that point of their relationship, they were exchanging I love yous. âI love you so much, baby!â Kelce said as they were wrapping up.
âI love you so much!â she reciprocated.
âThanks for making my day better,â he added.
âThank you. I know, this was likeâsome people get a vitamin drip; I got this conversation,â she admitted.
After her first London concert, Swift is filmed getting into her car and immediately calling Kelce. She recaps how well the show went, telling the NFL player that the crowdâs optimism and spirit were just what she needed to get back on track after having to cancel her August Vienna shows due to terrorist threats. Swift had been greatly shaken by what happened but purposely kept her distress and anxiety hidden from fans.
Kelce does not appear on camera in the episode, but in another segment, Swift appears rehearsing in a Kansas City Chiefs top, a nod to her fiancĂ©âs team.
Episode 2
Kelce doesnât appear in the second episode of the series, which focuses on her preparing her Tortured Poets Department set for the Eras Tour and rehearsing with Florence Welch for their âFlorida!!!â performance in London.
Episode 3
Kelce himself does not appear in third episode, which focuses primarily on Swift and her teamâs return to the tour after a two-month break. Key moments include the debut of Swiftâs new Reputation-era bodysuit; the story behind singer Jeslyn Gormanâs cancer diagnosis and recovery; and the complexity of putting on the Eras Tour show itself.
Episode 4
Episode 4, âThank You For The Lovely Bouquet,â features Kelce heavily, as he both appears and is mentioned multiple times throughout the installment. Early on, fans watch a segment from the now-viral New Heights podcast in which Kelce first shared that he sought to give Swift his phone number via friendship bracelet.
Later, Swiftâs mother, Andrea Swift, shares why she was the one to encourage Swiftâs relationship with Kelce. After seeing headlines about his New Heights episode, she reached out to her cousin, Robin, her âresidential expert on the Kansas City Chiefs.â
âShe said, âOh, my God. Heâs the nicest guy. And you know what? He really loves his mom, [Donna Kelce],ââ Andrea says. âI went, âDing, ding, ding, ding. Now, how in the world am I gonna get [Swift] to meet him?ââ
As Andrea recounts this story, Swift adds that she had previously considered herself âvery non-athleteâ in her relationships, âbecause Iâm not one, and Iâve always just been like, âWell, what would we talk about?ââ But, Swift continues, her mother convinced her. âYou call me up with this tone of, like, âHey, so I know youâre gonna not react well to this. But thereâs a guy...You said something to the effect of, like, âYouâve got to start doing something different.ââ
Elsewhere in episode 4, audiences learn how Kelceâs surprise cameo in the Eras Tourâduring a June 2024 showâcame to fruition. âI canât remember how it came up,â Swift says of the initial idea to include Kelce in a vaudeville-style skit during the Tortured Poetâs Department segment of the show. âI think we were just joking around about him doing it, like him going up there with [dancer] Kam [Saunders], and it became very clear that [Kelce], like, wasnât joking.â
Swift continues, âTravis is, like, a real âyesâ guy, in terms of life itself...The fans absolutely love Travis, and I think itâs because they can tell that he loves them, too, and he just kind of loves all people.â

Finally, alongside clips of Swift watching Kelce play for the Chiefs, the pop star gave a candid explanation for why she believes her relationship with Kelce has worked when others have not. There has âbeen this dynamic shift with Travis,â she says in episode 4. âItâs shocking how many similarities we have towards our jobs and how we view them, and how we view each other. We both have jobs where we go out in NFL stadiums and entertain people for three-and-a-half hours, his with considerably more violence than mine, but heâs not in heels. But itâs our passion. Weâve been chasing this since we were little kids. So I donât think I ever thought Iâd meet a guy who had that same trajectory...And Iâve realized that, with this person in my life that just was the right fit for me, you can have the two passions coexist, and they actually fuel each other...Ultimately, we love cheering each other on.â
âThank You For The Lovely Bouquetâ concludes with clips of Kelce watching Swiftâs renditions of âCowboy Like Me,â âBejeweled,â and âKarmaâ at the Eras Tour, followed by footage of him joining her beneath and beyond the stage.
âThe fans absolutely love Travis, and I think itâs because they can tell that he loves them, too, and he just kind of loves all people,â Swift says. âTravis is just very comfortable with, conceptually speaking, a big life, because he has one...I think, ultimately, itâs the way he treats me. Itâs very clear. And I think thatâs one of the reasons why the fans are so in love with him. Because you should be, you know? Heâs very lovable.â
