The Chiefs of Kansas City are “enchanted” to have Taylor Swift as their supporter.
On Sunday, December 10, Ava Hunt, the daughter of Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt, posted a cute picture of herself and 33-year-old Swift on Instagram. Swift was holding a gift that was wrapped in marbled wrapping paper, a bejeweled ribbon, and a message that said, “To Taylor” and “From: The Hunt Family” when she took the picture, and she was wrapping her arm around Ava. The pair pressed their heads close and smiled for the camera. (On Wednesday, December 13, Swift turns 34.)
“Enchanted to meet you @taylorswift ️,” Ava captioned the post. Although Ava did not confirm what the gift was, she teased fans in her comments by writing it was a “birthday surprise 🩷.”

Multiple followers were quick to share their guesses on what the gift could be.
“A Chiefs jersey?” one suggested while another guessed, “I’m thinking a bedazzled Chiefs gear item she made herself 🫶.”
Since 2005, Hunt—who is married to Tavia and has three kids, Grace, Ava, and Knobel—has owned the Chiefs. The team has welcomed Swift’s presence in the stands to back boyfriend Travis Kecle.
Swift observed the Chiefs’ Sunday loss to the Buffalo Bills. Wearing a Chiefs sweatshirt, a miniskirt that matched, and black knee-high boots, she was spotted supporting the tight end. She added subtle glam and her trademark red lips as accessories. Her bangs were combed to one side of her forehead, and her golden hair was blown out and worn down.
On their way out of Arrowhead Stadium, Swift and the 34-year-old Kelce were spotted holding hands.
Earlier this month, Swift opened up about her relationship with Kecle during her TIME Person of the Year cover story.
“This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell,” she gushed, adding, they “started hanging out right after that.”
Swift noted that the first time she attended one of his games in September, they were already a couple. “I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date,” she said.
Ahead of their “hard launch,” Swift shared that they “actually had a significant amount of time … to get to know each other.”
Although some NFL fans have been criticizing the amount of coverage she’s gotten while attending games, Swift doesn’t care.’
“I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care. We’re just proud of each other,” she said. “I’m just there to support Travis. I have no awareness of if I’m being shown too much and pissing off a few dads, Brads and Chads.”
Kelce’s attendance at Swift’s Eras Tour is another way he supports the singer. He took a plane to Buenos Aires, Argentina, last month to support her. She changed the words of her original song “Karma” from “Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me” to “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me” in an attempt to give him a shout-out at the time. At the new lyrics, he smiled and flushed adorable.
