The 34-year-old confessed that it was difficult living with a celebrity who has her every move watched and commented on.
Travis appeared to make a sly “private” dig at Swift’s ex-boyfriend, Joe Alwyn.
The couple were together for six years, but kept their relationship out of the public eye.
“You want to keep things private, but at the same time, like, I’m not here to hide anything,” he explained.
“That’s my girl, you know what I mean? That’s my lady, so I’m proud of it.
“It can be crazy for someone with so much attention and she keeps it so calm and cool and I can definitely admire it.
“You just don’t want to let everyone into your personal life and be able to comment on it, knowing that everything she does is going to make headlines.
‘Well commented personal life’
Travis Kelce was asked about his relationship with Taylor Swift during an interview with Good Morning America.
But the Kansas City Chiefs tight end gave a cautious response.
“When you have good family and friends around you, that aspect of life becomes so much easier,” Kelce told GMA.
“I’ve always been a very grounded guy. Maybe it’s not like that when I’m playing football.
“But off the field, I just want to be a genuine person. I try not to go too far.
“Because you never know what opportunities are going to present themselves.”
“The first game she attended against the Chiacogo Bears, I was like, ‘I could probably set everything up for you.’
“And she just walked in the front door.
“There’s no talking to security, she said, ‘I just want to be around family and friends and experience this with everyone.’
“She got a lot of points for that. She’s crazy, man, she wants to be a part of this.
“She wants to support me and do things like that. She really won me over with that.”
Kelce surprised fans by appearing alongside the singer on stage at a recent show in London.
The tight end proved extremely popular with Swift’s die-hard followers and was met with deafening applause during the Wembley performance.
“It’s a different demographic than the NFL,” Kelce said.
“So it’s been cool to be involved in that and see her following and everything.
“It’s been fun because a lot more kids are interested in the game and Chiefs fans have become a lot of her fans.
“And her fans turned into Chiefs fans, so I had fun with every aspect of it.
“But when you’re at home, you want privacy, and you don’t always get that.”
