KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI: Taylor Swift may have been missing from Travis Kelce’s public 35th birthday festivities, but sources reveal she made up for it with an intimate celebration the following day.

Taylor Swift hosts private birthday dinner for Travis Kelce in Kansas City
Though Taylor Swift missed Travis Kelce's 35th birthday festivities with friends on Saturday night, insiders say she made up for it by hosting a more private celebration for her NFL star boyfriend on Sunday.
According to a source from Page Six, Swift, joined by her father Scott, treated Kelce, his family, and Patrick and Brittany Mahomes to dinner at the trendy sushi restaurant Noka.
The insider shared that the gathering was kept lowkey, wrapping up early in the evening, as the Kansas City Chiefs had a game against the New Orleans Saints the following day.
The eatery, known for dishes like miso cod and dry-aged duck, typically shuts its doors on Sundays, except for exclusive private bookings. However, this rumored gathering might be just that—another source expressed doubt that Swift was even in town before Monday!
Despite this, DeuxMoi, a celebrity gossip site, had previously tipped that Swift and Kelce dined at the same sushi hotspot late last month under the guise of "maintenance" closure.
Swift attended Kelce’s Monday night game at Arrowhead Stadium, cheering him on from a VIP suite alongside her father and Mecole Hardman Jr's fiancee, Chariah Gordo. The couple later celebrated the Chiefs' victory at a private after-party.
Earlier in the weekend, Kelce marked his birthday with a night out at a comedy show with his brother, Jason Kelce, and his friend, Patrick Mahomes.
Earlier in the day, Kelce held his yearly Kelce Car Jam charity event without Swift, where he told Page Six what he hoped to receive for his birthday. “I’ll take another Super Bowl if you got one of those,” he joked.
Travis Kelce fuels rumors of Taylor Swift moving in
Travis Kelce is stirring up speculation about a potential future with Taylor Swift as he embarks on an extensive renovation of his $6 million Kansas City home. The Kansas City Chiefs star is constructing a lavish underground man cave that spans 396 square feet, which is generating buzz about the couple possibly taking their relationship to the next level.
Sources suggest that with Kelce’s recent discussions about marriage and engagement, this home improvement project may signal plans for a more permanent living arrangement with the pop superstar.
Kelce's mother, Donna, further fueled the speculation when she playfully remarked to Page Six, “You never know,” regarding whether her son might propose to Swift soon.
According to The Daily Mail, the underground den will feature an indoor golf simulator and is part of an ambitious expansion plan for Kelce's mansion, located in a gated community where he and Swift have been spending significant time together. Construction teams were spotted at the site earlier this month, digging down two and a half feet to create the spacious basement.
The new facility is expected to be a favorite among the Kelce brothers, who share a passion for golf and have participated in numerous charity tournaments, even winning the American Century Long Drive Contest.
Additionally, Kelce's Chiefs teammate Patrick Mahomes is likely to take advantage of the golf simulator as well.
