New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone teased two very special guests for the opening game of the ALCS against the Cleveland Guardians Monday night.
NFL star Travis Kelce and his A-List girlfriend Taylor Swift will reportedly be in the Bronx to watch the Yankees edge closer to the World Series.
The pop superstar is a regular sight in the stands at her beau’s NFL games but on Monday night, she and the three-time Super Bowl winner will swap the football field for the diamond, according to Boone.
The Kansas City Chiefs star has been enjoying a week of quality time with the songstress during his team’s bye week.
The reigning champions won’t return to action until Sunday when they face the San Francisco 49ers in a Super Bowl rematch.
Kelce has ensured he soaks up every moment he can spare with his girlfriend before she hits the road again for her Eras Tour on Friday.
The celebrity lovebirds enjoyed a romantic weekend in New York, hitting the town with the signer’s BFF Blake Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds for a double date.
The A-list foursome was seen arriving at hotspot The Corner Store in the Soho neighborhood of New York City on Friday night.
Some fans flamed the four stars for their outfits but Kelce got most of the flack for his handlebar mustache and floppy hair.
Afterwards, Kelce was brutally mocked on social media as fans compared his look to Ron Burgundy from Anchorman.
Others said he looked like another Will Ferrell character — Ricky Bobby from Talladega Nights — and some even claimed his mustache was reminiscent of those from 70s and 80s adult film stars.
Kelce and Swift followed up the quartet’s night on the town with some alone time on a date night of their own Saturday.
The ‘Fortnight’ singer was spotted holding hands with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end as they arrived at Torrisi restaurant, also in New York City.
Their string of date nights in New York City also comes two weeks after they survived the alleged breakup date from a leaked ‘contract’ several weeks ago.
The contract is widely believed to be fake, and Kelce’s camp were quick to call it ‘entirely false and fabricated,’ but it claimed the duo were set to announce their split on September 28.
The breakup date stipulated in the alleged contract has now passed without any fanfare, and without any news about a split.
Since then, Swift had been spotted at some of Kelce’s games and proving that their romance is still going strong despite the split speculation.
The couple also put on a PDA-packed display at the US Open men’s final in Flushing Meadows last month.
Swift and Kelce couldn’t keep their hands off one another with the popstar even serenading her beau with a rendition of Darkness’s, ‘I Believe In A Thing Called Love.’
Tonight though, Swift and Kelce are seemingly swapping Queens for the Bronx as they look to enjoy more of the sporting scene New York has to offer.
After failing to reach the postseason a year ago, the Yankees advanced to the American League Championship Series for the second time in three seasons and for the fourth time since 2017.
They will now begin their quest to reach the World Series for the first time since 2009 at home at Yankee Stadium in front of Kelce and Swift.
If Boone’s team can dispatch of the Guardians, who outlasted Detroit in a thrilling ALDS to set up the series, an all-New York World Series could be on the cards.
The New York Mets face superstar Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS in a bid to end their own nine-year World Series drought.
The Mets trail the Dodgers after losing Game 1 of their series 9-0 but already found themselves leading Game 2 6-0 at the top of the second earlier on Monday afternoon.
