Rather than a high-profile, and public, celebration for Travis Kelce's birthday - the Kansas City Chiefs tight end and Taylor Swift opted for a more low-key celebration.
Fans had begun to express their concerns about whether the pair were able to get together despite their busy schedules after his October 5 birthday came and went with little in the way of evidence of a get-together.
Kelce's birthday celebrations had begun with a steakhouse meal alongside his friends earlier in the week, and ended with him scoring a touchdown in the win over the Minnesota Vikings. And now it appears Swift was part of the festivities.
Having been at Kelce's previous two games, the pop superstar was also absent from t he Chiefs victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, but any suggestion the blossoming relationship might have been cooling down or schedules had kept them apart, appear to have been eased.

US Weekly are reporting that the two were able to enjoy some time together prior to the Vikings game, celebrating his 34th birthday with a cosy couple of days at Kelce's home in Kansas City
Just a week after Kelce is reported to have spent time at Swift's New York apartment, the report adds that Swift travelled from Nashville for two days with the player - who is currently nursing an injury and has not practiced this week.
Swift boarded a plane from her home in Nashville to Kansas City on Friday - the day after Kelce's birthday - and the pair are reported to have enjoyed had a "chill night" in private before Kelce departed for Minnesota alongside his teammates and Swift herself left on Sunday.

Kelce did not train on Monday or Tuesday and faces a race to be fit for the game against the Denver Broncos.
Kansas City and Kelce face a quick turnaround with the team in action on Thursday night against their AFC West rivals. Swift was at the Chiefs last home game and with the Amazon Prime TV cameras in attendance as Week 6 in the NFL gets underway, fans will be hoping for another glimpse of Swift.
Fans were initially surprised not to see Swift who first appeared at an NFL game this season when she had been in Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium in Travis' suite with his mother, Donna Kelce.
The following weekend she had been at the Jets game in New York with a large entourage, including Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Hugh Jackman, Sophie Turner and Paul Rudd.
In that last game, NBC cut to the singer 17 times during the second game she attended and even Travis later admitted the NFL was "overdoing" the coverage of his new love interest.
