Taylor Swift’s NFL star boyfriend Travis Kelce has landed in Sydney.

The Super Bowl champ, 34, arrived shortly after 9am on Thursday, after jetting over from Hawaii.

The sports star looked relaxed as he stepped off the private plane alongside another man, believed to be his friend and fellow tight end Ross Travis.

The pair were ushered into an awaiting vehicle, and driven away.

His arrival comes just a day before Swift takes the stage for the first night of her Eras Tour in Syndey.

The Cruel Summer singer arrived in Sydney on Monday, after finishing her Melbourne leg of her tour.

She was spotted getting on the plane wearing Kelce’s Chiefs Super Bowl Champions hat, as well as a red top and shorts.

She arrived in Sydney just before 1.30pm, after only a roughly 20-minute delay.

The delay was caused by thunderstorms and lighting strikes in the area.

Swift’s jet pulled into a hangar in the airport, so that she could leave the plane to privately go to her hotel in the city.

After landing, she joined a convoy of cars where she is believed to have been taken to a penthouse at the Crown casino in Barangaroo, in Sydney’s CBD.

The NFL star hinted at visiting the superstar in Australia in his podcast New Heights last week, saying he would “venture to an island real soon”.

He also said he would not be appearing on this week’s episode alongside his brother Jason Kelce, leading fans to speculate that he would be in Australia and unable to record the show.

Speaking live with US TV breakfast show Today on Tuesday morning, Kelce’s dad Ed Kelce said he heard the rumours his son was going to travel south to visit Swift on her Australian tour.
