Talk about a power couple.
Speculation that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, both born in 1989, were romantically involved began swirling in early September 2023. At the time, the Messenger reported that the unlikely duo had been “quietly hanging out” for several weeks.
This was after the Kansas City Chief tight end revealed on his podcast, “New Heights,” that he tried to pass Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number at one of her Eras Tour shows, but “she didn’t want to meet” with anyone.
Following weeks of public declarations of interest from Kelce, Swift was seen sitting next to his mom at a Cheifs’ game on Sept. 24, before they headed off to a romantic dinner, suggesting the tides may have turned.
Amid their blossoming romance, it does not go unnoticed that both are at the height of their career and they have the bank accounts to prove it.
The rumored couple have a combined estimated net worth of around $770 million.
Here’s everything to know about their net worth and how they make money:
Travis Kelce
The two-time Super Bowl champion is in the second year of his four-year $57.25 million deal he signed with the Chiefs.
The agreement included $22.75 million in guaranteed money when he signed it in 2020, plus an annual salary of $14,312,500.
Although Kelce is widely regarded as one of the best tight ends in NFL history, he has been outspoken about the notion he’s “underpaid.”
“My managers and agents love to tell me how underpaid I am,” he told Vanity Fair in January 2023.
“Any time I talk about wanting more money, they’re just like, ‘Why don’t you go to the Chiefs and ask them?’” he went on.
“When I saw [former Chiefs receiver] Tyreek Hill go [to the Miami Dolphins] and get $30 [million] a year, in the back of my head, I was like, man, that’s two to three times what I’m making right now.”

However, the “Catching Kelce” alum reiterated that he loves the game.
“I’m like, the free market looks like fun until you go somewhere and you don’t win. I love winning. I love the situation I’m in,” he explained.
“You see how much more money you could be making and, yeah, it hits you in the gut a little bit. It makes you think you’re being taken advantage of,” he continued.
“I don’t know if I really pressed the gas if I would get what I’m quote-unquote worth. But I know I enjoy coming to that building every single day.”
Kelce’s net worth is believed to be around $30 million, per Yahoo Finance, which is aided by several lucrative endorsement deals with companies like McDonald’s, Papa John’s, Nike and Dick’s Sporting Goods.
Taylor Swift
Swift, on the other hand, is reportedly worth a whopping $740 million, per Forbes, which is more than 24 times her new beau’s fortune.
The Grammy winner has taken home an eye-watering $137.5 million from her digital singles and album sales, according to the Recording Industry Association of America.
Meanwhile, her blockbuster Eras Tour is projected to gross more than $2 billion in North America alone, overtaking her 2018 “Reputation” tour as the highest-grossing tour in history.
It was previously reported by CBS that the “Love Story” hitmaker could personally pocket $500 million from the Eras Tour, which may even push her to billionaire status.
Outside of her music career, Swift has inked deals with Diet Coke, Capital One and Apple for unspecified sums of money and controls an impressive real estate portfolio.
Her New York City apartment set her back a reported $50 million while she also owns a $17 million Rhode Island mansion and a $2 million pad in Nashville.
Business Insider estimated that the combined value of her properties was around $81 million.
