Travis Kelce 'made promise' to Taylor Swift's family after a year of dating

Travis Kelce has vowed to Taylor Swift's family to be her guardian in every way possible , with reports from The Mirror Online suggesting that they view the NFL ace as a 'built in bodyguard.' Swift 's family is reportedly over the moon about her year-long romance with Kelce , the Kansas City Chiefs sensation, as their love continues to flourish.

A source confided to the Daily Mail: "Taylor's family and everyone who knows her is so relieved by her relationship with Travis not only because she is madly in love but also because he makes her security personnel job much easier." That same person noted: "No one will try to come close to her when she is holding hands with her powerhouse boyfriend."

During his 'New Heights' podcast sessions with sibling Jason Kelce, Travis hasn't been shy about expressing how protective he feels towards Taylor, especially recalling the attention their first dates in New York City attracted last year, reports the Mirror US .

In addition, just months into their partnership, Page Six disclosed that Kelce had requested the blessing of Taylor's dad to marry her. Presently, insiders are buzzing with expectations of an impending engagement between the two.
