Travis Kelce credited his fiancée, Taylor Swift, for helping him step outside his comfort zone. Especially when it comes to food. During the May 6 episode of the New Heights podcast, the NFL star joked that dating Swift has unexpectedly pushed him to become “more of a man.”
Travis Kelce reveals how Taylor Swift helped him become ‘more adventurous with food’
“Yeah, I’m trying to act like more of a man when I’m around her,” Travis Kelce laughed while discussing his evolving palate. “Eating foods I haven’t tried before.” The conversation quickly turned into a playful family roast. Both Jason Kelce and his wife, Kylie Kelce, agreed that Taylor Swift has had a noticeable influence on him.

Jason didn’t hesitate to point out how much Travis’ eating habits have changed since his relationship with the pop superstar began. “My girl Tay is getting you opened up,” Jason previously joked during a 2024 episode of the podcast. “She’s introducing new foods to you.” Kylie agreed and said during the recent conversation that Travis has become “more adventurous with food.” Jason said he’s especially happy to see his younger brother trying new foods after being known as a very picky eater for years. “It’s one of the greatest things I’ve been happy about,” he added.
While Travis admitted he still has limits, he said he has become much more open to experimenting with different cuisines than he once was. “I’m still picky when it comes to what I’ll eat, I’ll admit,” Travis explained. “But at the same time, I’ll dance.” The three-time Super Bowl champion also revealed that texture remains one of his biggest hurdles when trying unfamiliar dishes. However, he has started warming up to lighter curries. “I’m in on a light curry,” he said. Still, Travis stressed that he has never avoided certain foods out of judgment. “It’s not even judging,” he explained. “It’s just, like, a mental block.”
