Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss sat side by side in a suite at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, November 8, watching the Kansas City Chiefs beat the New York Jets 35-12. The public outing ended years of talk about a rift between the two old friends.
Swift, 36, wore a Chiefs-red sweater and a gold “87” necklace for her husband, tight end Travis Kelce. Kloss, 34, joined Swift’s parents, Andrea and Scott Swift, and Kelce’s mother Donna Kelce in the box.
Kelce Scores in 200th NFL Game
Kelce marked his 200th NFL game with a 1-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. It was the 87th touchdown of his career, matching his shirt number.
Swift stood and cheered as the ball crossed the line. The Chiefs controlled the game from early on and never looked in trouble against the Jets.
After the final whistle, Swift and Kelce left Arrowhead together in a vintage Cadillac, smiling and waving at fans. It was the first time the couple had been seen leaving a Chiefs game together since September 2023.
Friendship Timeline Spans 13 Years
Swift and Kloss first met in 2013 at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and soon became close friends. They shared a joint Vogue cover in 2015, and Kloss appeared in Swift’s “Bad Blood” music video the same year.
Rumours of a falling-out began around 2017 and 2018. Neither woman ever spoke in public about a split. Talk grew louder in 2019, when Kloss went on holiday with Scooter Braun, the music manager who had bought Swift’s master recordings.
Small signs of a thaw came later. Kloss attended Swift’s final Eras Tour show in Los Angeles in August 2023. She liked Swift’s engagement post in August 2025. Then, in July 2026, Kloss and her husband, Joshua Kushner, attended Swift and Kelce’s wedding at Madison Square Garden in New York.
Sunday’s game was the clearest sign yet that the friendship is back on track. Fans online called it the end of the feud.
Why Reunion Matters
For Swift’s fans, the reunion closes a story that has run for almost a decade. Kloss was once part of Swift’s close circle in the mid-2010s, and the rumoured split became one of pop music’s longest-running mysteries.
The outing also shows how much has changed for both women. Swift married Kelce in July 2026, and Kloss, a mother of three, has built a career away from the runway. Their shared appearance in a family suite, with both sets of parents nearby, sent a simple message: the old friendship is alive again.
Swift has now attended three Chiefs home games this season. She was also at the October 18 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, where she sat with Este Haim and Caitlin Clark.
