Taylor Swift chose to take her relationship with Travis Kelce to the next level by moving full-time to Nashville because the romance has ‘shifted her priorities around,’ a source has revealed.
On Wednesday, it was reported that the hitmaker, 35, was moving full-time to Nashville, Tennessee, so she could be closer to her Kansas City Chiefs star boyfriend, Kelce, 35.
The change in location certainly reflected the singer’s ‘new outlook on life’ as she had previously favored New York City as her home base when spending time in America.
Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, a source has now revealed that as her relationship with Kelce continues to flourish, Swift made the move to ‘establish roots in the ground for her future.’
‘Taylor has grown up a lot in the past couple of years,’ the source began. ‘Falling in love with Travis so deeply has shifted her priorities around a bit and has given her a new outlook on life.’
The source noted that the Cruel Summer singer – who also own homes in Rhode Island and Los Angeles – has simply made the best move for her future.

They added that she plans to move in with Travis, who is now only a 90-minute flight from her, full-time when it comes time for them to ‘start a family.’
‘She will always have her home in NYC, as well as her other homes around the world,’ they continued.
‘Ideally, she and Travis will live together in one home as they start a family. This is no different than any other couple with a family.
‘New York City is exciting, and Taylor will always consider this home. But she is growing, as is their relationship, and she feels that it is time for her to establish roots in the ground for her future.’
Highlighting the poignancy of her making her ‘return’ to Nashville, the source noted: ‘Nashville is the place where she started her career, and this is all coming full circle. They both love the city.
‘It is beautiful and it offers them the peace and tranquility with the assurance of safety that they both require.’
The incident came as a large shock for the couple due to the fact Swift has frequently stayed since their romance kicked off in 2023.
The situation was an unwanted reminder of Swift’s own brushes with intruders. In January, a man was arrested after attempting to open the front door of her Manhattan townhouse in New York City.

Swift and Kelce have been dating since last September, when she appeared in a luxury suite at a Chiefs game next to Donna Kelce, Travis’ mother.
The singer has appeared at nearly 20 of Kansas City’s games since her relationship with Kelce began.
Meanwhile, a second insider confirmed that though Kelce is still making decisions about his career – the athlete is hoping to eventually ‘ride off into the sunset and look to start a family with Taylor’.
The insider began: ‘Taylor and Travis are all in with each other, that is a simple fact everyone can agree with but as it pertains to where they will live in the foreseeable future, especially together will be judged by a few factors.
‘Taylor, who won’t be giving up her spots in New York and such, is going to spend more time in Nashville and would love Travis to join her and he will.’
The insider continued: ‘But in the next few months, for Travis at least, will determine what he ends up doing.
‘He’s not ready to retire, but if the Chiefs win a third consecutive Super Bowl, Travis will be more prone to retire after his current contract that expires in 2027 and ride off into the sunset and look to start a family with Taylor anywhere she wants, which is leaning towards Nashville.’
Opening up about the romance, the insider added: ‘Their life has been a complete fairy tale, and they are going to continue that with everything they decide to do, they don’t want to ever hamper a good thing.
Swift recently sparked new rumors she’s engaged after fans theorized that she was trying to hide her ring finger in photos from her birthday celebration
‘So it’s been a discussion on what is next and it has all been productive and they are so on the same page.’

Swift and Kelce did not spend Christmas together, as Kelce was in Pittsburgh for Kansas City’s game against the Steelers.
Although they were apart on the merry day, Swift clearly was in tune with her beau’s status as she liked two Instagram posts about Kelce setting the Chiefs’ all-time record for receiving touchdowns.
The Chiefs do not play again until January 5, giving the couple plenty of time together over the next week-plus.
Talk of the pair taking their romance towards marriage recently sparked up once again when after fans noticed a bizarre detail in photos from Swift’s recent 35th birthday bash.
Several photos showed Swift sipping on a cocktail while posing up with fellow Chiefs WAG Lyndsay Bell, Swift’s close pal Ashley Avignone, and pal Brittany Mahomes – wife of NFL superstar and Kelce’s teammate, Patrick Mahomes.
In pictures from the party, eagled-eyed fans claimed that the hitmaker’s left ring finger looked ‘blurred,’ while others suggested she was purposely hiding her finger from view.
This immediately sparked a wild theory that Swift had purposely ‘edited out’ an engagement ring.
