If fans were wondering if Travis Kelce would jet off to Australia with girlfriend Taylor Swift after his triumphant return home to Kansas City and subsequent tragedy, the answer is still.
So far, Travis has been close to home, posting exclusive photos on DailyMail.com of the Super Bowl LVIII winner driving his Rolls Royce to lunch with friends on Saturday.
Travis dropped a big hint on this week's episode of his podcast “New Heights” that he might be heading Down Under, saying he intends to “go to an island soon” and that the best place to go is “south” in the United States. He claimed that.
Plus, since next week's podcast is a pre-recorded guest episode and he doesn't appear, fans will be able to join his girlfriend in Sydney starting February 23rd and spend the first week watching her for her show. He added that he believed he would travel to Singapore with him. In March.
But on Saturday, the 34-year-old Chiefs tight end drove leisurely through Kansas City with his windows down, smiling and waving to fans who spotted him.
Kelce spent just under an hour at Rye, one of the city's favorite hangouts, before slipping out the back door of the crowded restaurant with a to-go bag.
He's a regular at Rye, and Swift, 34, took his teammate's girlfriend out for a birthday dinner in January, picked up the bill, and decided to sample the cinnamon rolls, said to be Kelce's favorite.
Swift is currently on the Australian leg of Ella's tour, and fans are speculating that Kelce will be there to support her in Melbourne after their romance dominated NFL coverage this season. There is.
But Swift's boyfriend appears to be in no rush to make the long trip to Australia, looking calm as he steps out to Rye despite receiving backlash for his partying antics.
The NFL star came under a barrage of criticism after he was photographed attending a “scaled down” party in the wake of the shooting at the Chiefs' Super Bowl parade.
Mr. Kelsey and Mr. Swift donated $100,000 to the victims of the mass shooting that left 22 people injured and taken to the hospital, and a local radio DJ was killed. Police confirmed that about half of the injured were children.
The tight end's donation comes after he faced a wave of criticism for attending parties and posing for smiling selfies with police officers in the wake of the shooting.
In a snap obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com, he is all smiles at the Grand Falloon Restaurant and Bar on Wednesday with several teammates and their WAGs, including Patrick Mahomes' wife Brittany. It has been seen floating.
Kelce was part of a small group at the sports bar that also included Chiefs punter Tommy Townsend, center Creed Humphrey, tight end Matt Bushman, his wife Emily, and Mahomes.
Earlier in the day, local DJ Lisa López Galván was shot and killed in what started as an “argument” between two groups of young men, investigators said.
Two juveniles were arrested and charged Friday in connection with the case, but their hearings will be held in private and other details have not been made public, as required by Missouri law.
The two appeared in Jackson County Family Court on gun-related charges and resisting arrest.
Authorities anticipate further charges against the teens, who could be tried as adults.
According to Jackson County Court, if a person is charged with first-degree murder and was 16 years old at the time of the crime, he or she could be sentenced to death.
Nine children were injured in the incident, and Kelce donated $100,000 through his charity, the Eighty-Seven and Running Foundation. The foundation aims to help “underprivileged young people strive to become productive citizens.”
The GoFundMe page was started by a friend of the Reyes family whose two young daughters were injured in the shooting.
It has already surpassed its goal of $100,000, reaching $189,000 by Saturday afternoon. Swift donated to a fundraiser run by Lisa, who is connected to the two girls.
Kansas City police and the FBI are searching for others who may have been involved and are asking witnesses, victims, and anyone with cellphone video of the violence to call a dedicated hotline. ing.
All patients admitted to Children's Mercy Hospital after the shooting have been discharged, and doctors are treating 12 patients.
In total, at least 39 people were injured, 23 with gunshot wounds, including nine children.
The victims ranged from eight to 47, and the hospital confirmed the children were expected to make a full recovery.
“We would like to thank our team members for their support and well wishes over the last week,” spokeswoman Marlene Bentley said in a statement.
The University of Health and Welfare announced that three shooting victims are still receiving treatment at the hospital, with one still in critical condition, while the other two are recovering.
In total, they treated eight patients with gunshot wounds and four patients with other injuries related to the rally.
