No one has a fan-base to match Swift’s and - as long as they play the game - her boyfriends are welcomed into 倍の.

The 最新の man to 勝利，勝つ the golden ticket is the Kansas City 長，指導者s 星／主役にする, Travis Kelce, 34.

American Football fans ひどく 否定する Ms Swift has helped the three-time 最高の Bowl 勝利者’s career but it’s hard to ignore the fact that his status as the 最新の Mr Swift has 上げるd his profile globally.

Last September, after Swift was first seen supporting him at a Kansas City 長，指導者s game, ‘Travis Kelce’ became the 最高の，を越す Google search 称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語, with more than 5million queries.

And his 星／主役にする has been in the ascendant ever since. Sales of his No 87 shirt 急上昇するd 400 per cent and listeners to his TikTok podcast, New 高さs, with his brother, Jason (a former American footballer himself), 増加するd by a factor of four.

Before ‘Traylor ’, the show’s listening base was 32 per cent 女性（の）, now it’s 50 per cent. And Kelce has played up to this new-設立する listenership, many of them undoubtedly Swifties, by dropping について言及するs of their 関係 into every episode since Traylor went public.

After that football game in September, Travis told his brother on the podcast: ‘明白に, we’re together but I have to keep some things 私的な so I won’t be 株ing 詳細（に述べる）s moving 今後.’

Such good 意向s were soon kicked into touch. Kelce has gone on to talk about a date at Sydney Zoo, what happened at the 2024 最高の Bowl afterparty and, most recently, the news that he was looking at lab-grown diamonds - a 発覚 that sent Swifties into a frenzy of 約束／交戦 憶測.

It’s 明確に a winning 決まり文句／製法. Earlier this month, the podcast by the brothers Kelce won iHeartRadio’s Podcast of the Year award and they are 始める，決める to 選ぶ up many more accolades after becoming Spotify’s most listened-to sports podcast.

Ms Swift’s fans have been quick to 最高潮の場面 Kelce’s 明らかな game-計画（する）, with one 令状ing on Instagram: ‘The Kelces are not foolish. Swifties produce ratings. について言及する Taylor and you get ratings.’

It seems the Shake It Off singer is very aware of the 影響 she has on her boyfriends’ careers as, in her 2017 攻撃する，衝突する, I Did Something Bad, she wrote: ‘If he 減少（する）s my 指名する, then I 借りがある him nothing, And if he spends my change, then he had it coming.’

So what of previous Mr Swifts? Harry Styles is now an international superstar in his own 権利. But it was a different story 支援する in 2012 when he 乗る，着手するd on a short-lived 関係 with Swift.

She was 22, he was 18, and the couple dubbed ‘Haylor’ 時代遅れの for ten months. Their 関係 同時に起こる／一致するd with Styles pulling off a クーデター that many British artists long to 達成する - he broke into the American market.

Up until 2012, One Direction was 事実上 unknown outside the UK and, when it did land a US 小旅行する, it was not the headline 行為／法令／行動する but the support group for another boy 禁止（する）d, Big Time 急ぐ (me neither).

The day before One Direction 成し遂げるd their first gig at New York’s Madison Square Garden, Swift and Styles were photographed walking together in Central Park.

After enjoying a month of 存在 seen kissing in Times Square on New Year’s Eve, wearing the same paper aeroplane necklace and even 存在 伴う／関わるd in a snowmobile 事故 together, they 分裂（する） in January 2013.

Both, however, 利益（をあげる）d from the 関係, with Styles going on to enjoy a meteroic rise in the US. with his third studio album, Harry’s House, winning two Grammys.

奮起させるd by the 崩壊／分裂, Swift 言及／関連d Styles in a number of songs on her fifth album, 1989, 含むing Style and Out Of The 支持を得ようと努めるd. What greater imprimatur can a man hope for in the modern world?

Next in line for a 脚-up from the biggest megastar on the 惑星 was the Scottish DJ Calvin Harris. At the time, had had just one 最高の，を越す 5 攻撃する，衝突する but his career was catapulted into the 成層圏 in 2016 by the 解放（する） of This Is What You （機の）カム For, a song written by Harris and one Nils Sj?berg, a 指名する that turned out to be a pseudonym for Ms Swift.

With Rihanna on the 声のs, the song is - to this day - Harris’s highest-頂点（に達する）ing 選び出す／独身 as a lead artist in the US.

But its 解放（する） was not without 論争. In 返答 to 存在 asked about the 可能性 of 共同製作 with his girlfriend during an interview with TV presenter Ryan Seacrest, Harris said: ‘I can’t see it happening.’

すぐに afterwards, he had to 成し遂げる a humiliating climbdown on Twitter, 確認するing that Swift wrote the lyrics and 与える／捧げるd some background 声のs while he ‘wrote the music, produced the song, arranged it and 削減（する） Rihanna’s 声のs’.

Next up was Tom Hiddleston. The 26-year-old Ms Swift met the 43-year-old 星／主役にする of BBC 攻撃する，衝突する 演劇 The Night 経営者／支配人 at the 2016 Met 祝祭 and the pair 時代遅れの for three months.

During the singer’s Fourth of July party, Hiddleston cavorted around Rhode Island beach with the likes of Gigi Hadid, Cara Delevingne and Blake Lively - Ms Swift’s loyal besties - wearing a white 戦車／タンク-最高の，を越す emblazoned ‘I Heart TS’.

The ‘Hiddleswift’ 現象 cer tainly 上げるd Hiddleston’s profile as 憶測 渦巻くd that he was 存在 lined up to be the next 007 and he landed the cover of 非常に／多数の magazines over their summer of love, 含むing the August 問題／発行する of W wearing nothing but tight-white boxers.

If Tom Hiddleston was looking for fame, he certainly 達成するd it, after dating Swift

But the romance fizzled out and it wasn’t long before another Englishman, up-and-coming actor Joe Alwyn, 33, became the 反対する of Taylor’s affections.

悪名高くも 私的な, ‘Jaylor’ were first photographed together in 2017, enjoying coffee on a balcony in Nashville. Two years later, 約束／交戦 rumours were 誘発するd when her album Lover alluded to marriage but neither party 確認するd or 否定するd the rumour.

This appears to have been part of a premeditated 政策. Alwyn once told an interviewer: ‘If I had a 続けざまに猛撃する for every time I think I’ve been told I’ve been engaged, then I’d have a lot of 続けざまに猛撃する coins. I mean, the truth is, if the answer was yes, I wouldn’t say, and if the answer was no, I wouldn’t say.’

His 事実上の／代理 career blossomed 静かに と一緒に Ms Swift’s monumental success and he could be seen in her 2020 行方不明になる Americana Netflix 文書の 元気づける her on from the wings on one of her 小旅行する dates.

After finishing her 評判 show, the 星／主役にする 急ぐd off 行う／開催する／段階 to 抱擁する her other half.

That same year Alwyn was cast in his biggest 役割 to date: the BBC adaptation of Sally Rooney’s bestseller Conversations With Friends.

When he and Swift first got together, he was a little-known actor who had appeared in a handful of indie films but, thanks to their high-profile 共同, he won a new legion of fans. By the time their six-year 関係 （機の）カム to an end, the shy Bristol 演劇 卒業生（する） had morphed into one of Hollywood’s 主要な men.

But where he makes his most money - what we might call the ‘Swift （株主への）配当’ - is from his songwriting credits on her past three albums.

‘Fair or not, it’s made him a very rich guy,’ a source told Life And Style magazine. ‘Joe is making so much on 王族s and returns from [Taylor’s] 時代s 小旅行する that he doesn’t ever need to worry about money again.’ His 収入s from Spotify streams alone were 概算の to be $2.3million.

Alwyn, who is credited under the pseudonym William Bowery, co-wrote six songs with Swift, 含むing 追放する and Betty on her 2020 album Folklore, which earned him a Grammy.

One bo yfriend whose 評判 was hard to save was the frontman for 禁止（する）d The 1975, Matty Healy, 34, who was 簡潔に linked to Swift last May.

異常に, the Swifties did not take their ヘロイン’s 最新の love 利益／興味 to their hearts. The serpent in their 楽園 was the Healy’s 傾向 to speak first and think afterwards. He had once called the 女性（の） rapper Ice Spice ‘this chubby Chinese lady’ and ‘Inuit Spice Girl’ and the Swifties were not happy.

They even 開始する，打ち上げるd a #SpeakUpNow （選挙などの）運動をする against Swift, which 需要・要求するd that she give ‘more than a simple 陳謝’ for Healy’s ‘bigoted’ 発言／述べるs.

A 声明 read: ‘Use your 壇・綱領・公約 responsibly and 故意に. 支持する for inclusivity, celebrate 多様制 and 促進する empathy and understanding.’

In June last year, barely a month after their 指名するs were first linked, it was 報告（する）／憶測d that Matty and Taylor were no longer seeing each other.

Travis Kelce, however, appears to be playing a blinder. Only this week, he and Swift were snapped strolling 手渡す-in-手渡す on a beach in the Bahamas. Could it b e that la Swift, so often unlucky in love, has 設立する Mr 権利 at last?
