Taylor Swift thought she was going to have a "quiet dinner" with her boyfriend before he surprised her with a massive end-of-tour wrap party

Her close friend Ashley Avignone has now revealed in a caption alongside a carousel of images posted on Instagram of the event put on by Taylor's 35-year-old NFL star partner Travis Kelce: "When she thought she was going to a small, quiet dinner but it was actually a giant surprise party with her friends and family, props included (party popper-blowing emoji.)"

Ashley's post featured images of Taylor posing with friends at the party.

Among the guests were Travis' fellow Kansas City Chiefs player Patrick Mahomes, 29, and his wife Brittany, also 29.

Brittany posted a string of photos from the night out on her Instagram on Wednesday (18.12.24) showing how guests wore homemade friendship bracelets - like Taylor's fans at her gigs - and dressing up in costumes to mark Taylor's different album 'eras' as the singer did on stage.

Grammy-winning Taylor turned up in black mini dress from Balmain, embroidered with beads, sequins and crystals.

Brittany captioned the images: "My people (heart-shaped hands emoji.)"

The party comes after Taylor is said to have been showered with a "ton of gifts" for her 35th birthday from doting boyfriend Travis, also 35.

The pop phenomenon marked the milestone on 13 December and her NFL star partner is said to have pulled out all the stops to make it as special as possible, especially as it marked the start of the singer having a rest following the end of her 'Eras Tour' shows.

A source told Page Six the couple, who have been dating since the summer of 2023, celebrated with a private party involving "just them two".

They added: "He got her a ton of gifts."
