Speculation is rampant that Taylor Swift is expecting a baby with new partner Travis after she was spotted with a prominent stomach bulge on Sunday evening (October 7, 2023), during romantic dinner date nearby her place.

Twitter reacts to Taylor Swift pregnancy rumor/

Travis Kelce “I do not comment on her personal life,”… and therefore has neither confirmed nor denied. This has caused multiple stories about the alleged pregnancy to make their way through bulletin boards and other social media sites during the past 24 hours, just following engagement rumors earlier this week.

Now we’ll have to wait and see if that ‘baby bump’ and that ‘high-profile wine-voidance’ are the key clues that ultimately lead to the Best Famous Baby News of the year.

Taylor’s Mom Andrea Swift unhappy with Travis Kelce over this ‘ Hope she forgive him ‘ Amidst pregnancy rumors

There have been various reports suggesting that Taylor Swift has doubts about the longevity of her relationship with Travis Kelce. But she seemed to be directly denying the speculation when she referred to the NFL star on social media for the first time, marking another big milestone in their relationship.

Taylor showed off her romance with Travis on TikTok for the first time on Monday, shortly after his triumph at the Super Bowl.

In the clip, the pop star and the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs were spotted enjoying themselves at a Las Vegas nightclub. Notably, they were accompanied by none other than the singer’s parents, Scott and Andrea Swift.

The group could be seen celebrating in the VIP section of the venue. The atmosphere was vibrant, with Ludacris’ track “What’s Your Fantasy?” providing the backdrop to their night.

“It’s a friends and family party they said,” text over the video read.

At one point, Kelce, 34, displayed a playful gesture, sticking his tongue out for the camera. The video then turned to Scott and Andrea Swift, who found themselves offering somewhat awkward smiles in the direction of their daughter. Taylor then playfully directed the camera towards her own face, where she artfully portrayed an “oops” expression.

“Accidentally going clubbing with your parents is something everyone should try at least once in their life,” the musician captioned the video, making light of the fact that she was clubbing in Vegas with her parents as well as boyfriend.

Many of the comments on Taylor’s video expressed excitement that the singer acknowledged her and Travis’ relationship for the first time online.

“That’s her first relationship to be this public. She’s so in love, so happy for her,” one fan wrote, while another added, “Taylor with the hard launch.”

A third comment read, “Her first time posting anything with Trav in it — I love them.”

Taylor May Be Unsure About Her Future With Travis

Engagement and even pregnancy rumors have been following Taylor and Travis for months, and Swift’s new acknowledgement of their romance is only fueling the speculation. However, there have also been reports that the singer is unsure of where their relationship will go in the future.

“They’re having a lot of fun, but they’re still seeing where it goes,” a source told PEOPLE Magazine last month.

The reports of Taylor’s unsureness comes after she was issued a warning from Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Maya Benberry, who said there are reasons to question his motivations.

“Certain qualities don’t change in men. I feel like Travis is a narcissist. Most narcissists don’t change,” Maya told Daily Mail in an interview. “Like the saying goes, once a cheater, always a cheater.”

“I wanted the public to know I’m not jealous or bitter about Taylor. She’s beautiful, she’s successful, we’re in two different lanes,’ she said before pointing the finger back at the athlete,” Maya went on. “My issue is more with Travis. Now, [he’s] trying to turn me into a bitter person or a liar, or delusional. And I’m the furthest thing from that.”

Travis and Taylor haven’t publicly acknowledged Maya’s comments.
