Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are two of the most talked-about people in the world.

And following an action-packed 2024 – with Swift’s record-breaking Eras tour and Kelce’s NFL stardom, the A-list couple has been front and centre.

This year, however, Swift and Kelce have taken a much needed step back from the spotlight, scaling down their public appearances and focusing on enjoying “normal life” together away from the cameras.

“They are making fewer public appearances together because [their relationship] brings too much unwanted attention,” a source recently told Us Weekly. “But there isn’t trouble in paradise.”

In fact, sources reported this week that the A-list couple is actually at a “turning point” in their relationship, with the space and privacy of this year allowing them to get even more serious.

“It’s been a turning point for their relationship in a lot of ways,” a source close to the couple recently told PEOPLE. “They’re incredibly happy and in sync. There’s a calmness and ease to their relationship right now that’s been really grounding for Taylor and Travis.”

The source continued: “Taylor and Travis are soaking up every minute of this slower season together. They’ve been splitting their time between New York, Nashville and a few quiet getaways, just enjoying each other’s company without all the usual chaos.

This kind of downtime is rare for both of them, and it’s really allowed their bond to deepen.”

This update comes amid reports that Swift and Kelce’s relationship is set to change this autumn, with the Blank Space singer excited to be able to attend her boyfriend’s NFL games without any work conflicts.

“It’s been a turning point for their relationship in a lot of ways,” a source close to the couple recently told PEOPLE. “They’re incredibly happy and in sync. There’s a calmness and ease to their relationship right now that’s been really grounding for Taylor and Travis.”
