Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce has desperately been trying to console her after it was revealed a terror plot planned for night one of her Vienna tour dates was foiled – but the NFL star will not be granted any time off from training, insiders claim.
The singer, 34, was due to perform in front of an estimated 170,000 fans on August 8, 9, and 10 at Ernst Happel Stadium in the Austrian capital, but was forced to cancel all three shows after the horrific attack – which threatened to claim ‘as many lives as possible’ – was exposed.
It has since been confirmed that radicalized teens aged 17 and 19 – including an ISIS fanatic – had ‘planned carnage with bomb, knives and vehicle attack on young fans.’
Travis, 34, is acting as ‘shoulder’ to lean on as she comes to terms with the news, which has reportedly served as a huge ‘wake-up call’ for the loved up couple.
‘All Travis can do right now is be an ear and a shoulder for Taylor as he knows she and her team have things handled to the best of their abilities,’ an insider told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘Any available moment he has to spend with her, he will.
She was there for him during the shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs’ victory parade and unfortunately with these latest circumstances, he will be there for her – but he won’t be given any extra time off as the season starts in a month and KC is looking to three-peat.’
Travis is currently at a training camp with his Kansas City Chiefs team ahead of the new NFL season starting on September 5.
The source said despite being left horrified, Taylor is looking forward to her London shows and reinstating her position as a regular fixture at Travis’ games.
Taylor knows she is a target and that is something she has accepted,’ the insider continued. ‘She refuses to let this dampen what this tour has meant to her.
‘She is still going to live her life and is looking forward to her London shows and being at KC games this season.
‘This has shown them both what is important in life, and this is a wakeup call that if they were ever feeling petty about anything, they should stop and realize what great things they have and just enjoy life to the fullest.’
Following the thwarted terrorist plot, Taylor’s concert promoter Barracuda Music posted a statement informing fans that her Vienna dates were being called off, leaving tens of thousands disappointed after they had fought to get tickets to the sold-out tour.
‘Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Vienna Shows Cancelled Due to Government Officials Confirmation of Planned Terrorist Attack,’ the post read.
With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone’s safety.
