Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are once again making headlines, but this time, it’s amid speculation that they might be making a surprise appearance at Coachella, especially following the recent controversy involving Kanye West. Last week, the rapper made derogatory and sexually explicit comments about Swift on his X account, which reportedly infuriated Kelce. While the couple has been keeping a low profile in the wake of the incident, they have continued to stay close, avoiding the limelight and spending time together.
Fans, however, are catching on to subtle hints that Swift and Kelce might attend the iconic music festival this year. One fan shared photos on X claiming to have spotted the couple near the Coachella venue, further fueling the rumors. Though there hasn’t been any official confirmation regarding their attendance, fans fondly remember the couple’s previous appearances at the festival, where they were seen enjoying the music and sharing public displays of affection. They were notably spotted at past Coachella events supporting their good friend Jack Antonoff’s Bleachers and Ice Spice.
A source close to the couple recently told Page Six that, since the end of Swift’s Eras Tour in December 2024 and Kelce’s Super Bowl run with his team, the couple has been taking some much-needed time away from the public eye. According to the insider, this break has provided them with a “nice escape” to focus on their relationship without the constant attention of the media.
While it remains unclear whether the couple will make an appearance at Coachella, fans are holding out hope for a surprise moment, particularly given Swift’s close ties with Post Malone. The two collaborated on the track “Fortnight” from Swift’s latest album, and with both artists set to perform at Coachella, there’s a chance they could take the stage together. If they do, it would be a memorable moment for both fans of the festival and Swifties alike.
