Taylor Swift ‘apparently’ dating football player, says John Kirby

Taylor Swift is "apparently" dating a football player, John Kirby said during a White House press conference with Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday, 3 October.

The National Security Council's Coordinator for Strategic Communications appeared to reference rumours that the "Cruel Summer" singer is in a relationship with Travis Kelce.

Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end have sparked media attention, such as when the musician attended the last two Chief's games.

Neither Swift nor Kelce have confirmed the status of their rumoured relationship since the games.
