Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have a secret sauce that makes their relationship work in ways their prior relationships didn’t, and that becomes evident in Monday night’s FOX primetime special, “TMZ Investigates: Taylor and Travis, Ultimate Love Story.”
Dr. Phil, Mark Cuban, Skip Bayless, Patti Stanger, Heather McDonald and others have a clear take on T&T … the relationship works because they are successful in fields that are radically different.
Think about it … Taylor’s past relationships include Joe Jonas, John Mayer, Jake Gyllenhaal, Joe Alwyn, Harry Styles and others. See any common threads? Yep, they’re all in Taylor’s lane — entertainment. It’s impossible to match Taylor’s success, and that inevitably gives way to conflict, jealousy, competitiveness, and on and on.
Travis breaks the mold. He’s not only in a different field … he’s top of the heap. He’s not competing with Taylor or comparing her success with his. He’s conquered his profession and is comfortable and, as Skip Bayless puts it … they can relate to each other on a star level.
As Dr. Phil says … not only are they NOT jealous of each other’s success, each actually celebrates the success of the other. They are each other’s cheerleader.
