How Travis Kelce Reacted to Terror Plot Against Taylor Swift Concert

This week, news broke that a terrorist plot was foiled days before Taylor Swift was supposed to perform at her Vienna concerts.

Due to safety reasons, Swift’s concerts were canceled at Ernst Happel Stadium, site of the planned attacks.

A source told The Sun that Taylor’s boyfriend Travis Kelce had to comfort her over the phone, since he’s thousands of miles away at training camp for the upcoming NFL season.

The source said, “Travis contacted Taylor very fast and talked with her for a while to show support and see how she was feeling with that tense situation.”

“You can tell that he was helping her feel better and made her laugh, to make this situation and the day she went through end up on a more fun note,” they added. “He always wants to make her laugh, and he loves to hear her laugh and feel good. After a day that intense and this scary situation, he was doing everything to make her feel better.”

Travis reportedly even considered flying over to Austria to be by Taylor’s side.

The source said, “He even suggested flying to Austria to be there for her if she wanted him to do so, even if it was for a day or two, but Taylor is going to keep working and focus on the next dates, with the London concert, to wrap up the Euro part in the best way.”

“That was a bit of a crisis moment because you never know how to deal with that, and having the concerts canceled isn’t common or frequent at all, as this kind of situation with a terrorist threat is very scary and has to be taken seriously to keep everyone safe,” the source explained.

According to the insider, Kelce was “relieved” that the concerts were canceled, saying, “It’s the best decision to be taken in this kind of context.”

The insider added, “The memory of what happened at Ariana Grande’s concert in Manchester [in 2017] is still very vivid in everyone’s minds. But she has told her team that she wants to try to return to Vienna as soon as possible in the future. She is very conscious of how disappointed her fans in Austria are.”

The decision to cancel the concerts came after two male suspects, ages 17 and 19, were arrested. Authorities allege that they were plotting to attack concertgoers outside the stadium using knives and self-made explosives. The Associated Press reports both suspects were inspired by the Islamic State and al Qaeda.
