Travis Kelce attended Patrick Mahomes’ charity gala sans Taylor Swift as the pop star continues to privately deal with Blake Lively’s legal woes with Justin Baldoni.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end was spotted in high spirits at the quarterback’s annual 15 and the Mahomies Vegas Golf Classic Gala Thursday night.
Kelce, 35, was seated at a VIP table along with Patrick and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, according to a video circulating on social media.
The NFL star participated in the fundraiser’s auction and bid on a guitar signed by Swift.
“I just realized I have that already,” Kelce joked after raising his paddle, prompting the crowd to burst out into laughter.
The autographed guitar was ultimately sold to an attendee for an impressive $15,000.
At one point, the “New Heights” podcast co-host joined Mahomes on stage and was seen applauding as his pal spoke into the microphone.
Kelce looked stylish in a perfectly tailored gray suit layered over a white shirt. He dressed the ensemble down by opting for no tie and accessorizing with white sneakers.
Notably absent from the event was the football player’s girlfriend, who was present at last year’s gala but has been hiding in the shadows since ending her two-year Eras Tour last December — though she was seen joining the Kelce family on Mother’s Day this past weekend.
Swift has also been laying low after getting dragged into Lively’s lawsuit against her “It Ends With Us” co-star.
Page Six confirmed earlier this month that Swift has been subpoenaed as a witness in the forthcoming trial, which is set to kick off in March 2026.
The singer’s spokesperson slammed the subpoena as outrageous, considering she “never set foot on the set of the movie.”
“She was not involved in any casting or creative decisions, she did not score the film, she never saw an edit or made any notes on the film, she did not even see ‘It Ends With Us’ until weeks after its public release, and was traveling around the globe during 2023 and 2024 headlining the biggest tour in history,” the rep said in a statement.
“The connection Taylor had to this film was permitting the use of one song, ‘My Tears Ricochet,’” the statement continued.
“Given that her involvement was licensing a song for the film, which 19 other artists also did, this document subpoena is designed to use Taylor Swift’s name to draw public interest by creating tabloid clickbait instead of focusing on the facts of the case.”
Swift was pulled into the legal dispute in January when Baldoni responded to Lively’s sexual harassment claims with a $400 million countersuit for defamation.
The director claimed that Lively’s “famous and famously close” friends praised the “Gossip Girl” alum’s script rewrites when Baldoni was invited to her and husband Ryan Reynolds’ penthouse.
Without name-dropping, Baldoni argued that Lively was using Reynolds and Swift to pressure him into using her edits for the 2024 film.
A source exclusively told Page Six that Swift felt “used” by Lively after being dragged into the drama.
