Back when she was 22 and dating music star Harry Styles, Taylor Swift explained why she was often drawn to bad boys. "There's a really interesting charisma involved. They usually have a lot to say, and even if they don't, they know how to look at you to say it all," she shared in a 2012 interview, further confiding, "I think every girl's dream is to find a bad boy at the right time, when he wants to not be bad anymore."
That time has finally come. After six months of dating Travis Kelce the reformed NFL bad boy who was suspended from his college team for smoking marijuana, made out with a bevy of women on his own 2016 dating show, Catching Kelce, and has had to deny cheating rumors with multiple ex-girlfriends the superstar singer-songwriter is one step closer to declaring the Kansas City Chiefs player her endgame.
"Taylor is telling friends that this is the happiest she has been in a very long time," shares a source. Since the future Hall of Fame tight end confessed that he tried and failed to give her his number on a friendship bracelet, she's become a staple at his games, forged deep friendships with his teammates' wives and girlfriends, blended their friend groups and introduced her family to his all seamlessly. "She feels like this is her first fun, normal, healthy relationship," says the source. "This is what Taylor has waited for. She is totally in love with Travis and has told friends he's the one."
