After the billionaire singer’s surprise public appearance, Taylor Swift’s secret reason for skipping Travis Kelce’s birthday party over the weekend has been revealed.
Taylor, 34, popped over to the city to catch the Kansas City Chiefs, Travis ‘ team, maintaining their unbeaten streak in the NFL on Monday night.
The songstress, who was a surprise guest at Travis’ birthday party in Kansas City over the weekend and at his 35th birthday, made sure to be there to watch the Chiefs’ 26-13 victory over the New Orleans Saints, which helped them finish the season sparkling 5-0.
The big win comes after Travis celebrated his 35th birthday with more than just a party, he spent the day giving back to the community, albeit without his girlfriend, Taylor. Travis hosted his second annual Kelce Car Jam charity event in Kansas City on Saturday to benefit his 87 and Running Foundation, which helps underprivileged youth in Cleveland and Kansas City.
Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs quarterback, and his wife Brittany, the charity’s host, had a great time. Despite a recent US Weekly report suggesting that Swift will likely be present to celebrate his October 5 birthday with family and friends at his Kelce Car Jam in Kansas City, Taylor was noticeably absent.

The Shake It off singer’s influence was felt throughout the venue, with her hit songs playing and Travis’ coveted 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle, which Taylor was escorted into after her first Chiefs game appearance last year.
It’s since been revealed just why Taylor was a no-show at her boyfriend’s birthday bash. The music mogul has been extremely busy getting ready for the Eras Tour to start later this month, according to reports. Travis and Taylor are still together and doing well, according to an insider who recently appeared on Entertainment Tonight. She has enjoyed some time off before her upcoming shows because he has been busy with the NFL season. Taylor is very busy with her work and upcoming plans, despite not currently touring.
Due to her touring commitments, it is believed that Taylor won’t be seen in the stands again for a few weeks following her appearance at the Kansas City Chiefs game on Monday night. The Eras Tour, which officially ends in December, kicks back off again in Miami on October 18. The 34-year-old artist is anticipated to have more free time in November and is likely to support Travis once more.

Following today’s commencement of the Wagatha Christie libel case battle between Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy, a costs hearing will cover fundamental issues relating to money owed as a result.
Vardy, 42, has dragged her Wagatha Christie rival, Rooney, 38, back into court over what she deems a ‘ ludicrous ‘ legal bill. Jamie Vardy’s wife claims that Wayne Rooney’s spouse has grossly overstated her expenses as a result of their defamation feud.
Rebekah is now challenging the former England star’s wife’s $1.8 million bill, which she believes was unfairly inflated. This reportedly includes a £2, 000 charge for her solicitor’s stay at London’s five-star Nobu Hotel, as well as a £225 food and mini-bar tab.
A minibar bill run up by one of Rooney’s lawyers consisted of “two bottles of water” amid claims of “extraordinary” spending during her high-profile Wagatha Christie libel battle with Rebekah Vardy, the High Court has been told.

Rebekah (Anadolu Agency via Getty Images) has dragged Coleen back to court.
Mrs. Justice Steyn ruled in July 2022 that the accusation was “substantially true,” but Mrs. Vardy brought a lawsuit against Mrs. Rooney for libel in response to the allegations that she had allegedly leaked confidential information to the press on social media in 2019.
The judge ordered Mrs. Vardy to pay 90% of Mrs. Rooney’s legal costs in October 2022, and their lawyers filed a lawsuit in London to dispute the amount.
Some of Mrs. Rooney’s legal expenses, including those incurred by a lawyer who stayed “at the Nobu Hotel,” included substantial dinner and beverage costs as well as minibar costs, were “extraordinary,” according to the court’s lawyers’ written submissions.
However, on Tuesday, Mrs Rooney’s barrister, Robin Dunne, said that the comment had been made “no doubt to try and argue that the defendant has been profligate in her spending on this litigation” and that it gave a “misleading and factually inaccurate” account.
He said: “Yesterday morning, The Sun ran a front-page headline which dealt with minibar charges. The claimant, Mrs. Vardy, in a conversation with The Sun or her sources, remarked that this was proof that the defendant had spent wildly and that what she claimed was completely unreasonable. It was reported around the world over and over again on Twitter, or X.
” There are some factual inaccuracies. It is both misleading and factually inaccurate and it is potentially defamatory, and steps are being taken in that respect, “he added.

One of Mrs. Rooney’s attorneys only stayed at the hotel because their original reservation was canceled, according to Mr. Dunne. He said:” (The solicitor) did not book the Nobu Hotel. He had a modest hotel booked, but the shower and wifi didn’t work the first night. He was offered to stay at the Nobu by the defendant’s agent, who has a preferential rate. “
Mr. Dunne claimed the food and minibar tabs were up to £225, but that the minibar tab “was only £7” and “required two bottles of water.” When staying at the hotel costs more than £600 per night, Mr. Dunne continued that the solicitor paid £295 per night.
Jamie Carpenter KC, for Mrs Vardy, said in response:” We do say that the defendant’s costs are extravagant, but the line-by-line issues are for another occasion. “
Prior to a line-by-line cost assessment scheduled for a later time, the hearing will be focusing on key points of principle. In written submissions, Mr Carpenter said that Mrs Rooney’s total claimed legal bill – £1, 833, 906.89 – was more than three times her” agreed costs budget of £540, 779.07 “and was” disproportionate”.
He added that Mrs. Rooney had previously “incorrectly and unreasonablely” understated some of her earlier expenses, which constituted “serious misconduct” and involved knowingly deceiving Mrs. Vardy and the court. He claimed that this should cause Mrs. Vardy to receive a smaller portion of the payment.
However, Mr Dunne said in his written submissions that Mrs Vardy had shown” deplorable conduct “throughout the case, and added:” It sits ill in Mrs Vardy’s mouth to now claim that Mrs Rooney’s costs, a great deal of which were caused directly by her conduct, are unreasonable. “
In court on Monday, he said that Mrs Vardy’s argument” smacks, with the best will in the world, of desperation “and that the outcome of the court battle was” utterly devastating to her”. He claimed that this was “probably the most poorly advised legal action since Oscar Wilde wrote a writ.”

Vardy is once more in court (PA).
Mrs. Rooney, the wife of former Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney, claimed in a viral social media post in October 2019 that she had conducted a “sting operation” and that Mrs. Vardy had allegedly leaked information about her private life to the press.
Mrs. Rooney asserted in a statement that Mrs. Vardy’s account was the source of three The Sun newspaper stories about her phony Instagram account posts about her “gender selection” process, plans to return to TV, and basement flooding at her home.
After the high-profile trial, Mrs Justice Steyn ruled in Mrs Rooney’s favour, finding it was” likely “that Mrs Vardy’s agent, Caroline Watt, had passed information to The Sun and that Mrs Vardy, the wife of Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy”, knew of and condoned this behaviour “and had” actively “engaged.
The hearing before Senior Costs Judge Andrew Gordon-Saker, which neither Mrs Rooney nor Mrs Vardy attended on Tuesday, is expected to conclude on Wednesday.
Kerry Katona has revealed why she’s regaining control of her appearance and believes having a facelift will be like having a baby.
The mum-of-five, 43, who recently had a nose job, will be having the operation next year after she’s finished in panto with her pal, Katie Price, 46.
Kerry is no stranger to a bit of nip and tuck, having had a tummy tuck, a boob job and a breast reduction. However, now she’s getting a facelift because she’s “getting older” and wants “some tweaks”.
Opening up about the major surgery, she said: “I had my facelift consultation this week and I can’t wait for it. I’m not getting a full facelift, it’s just a lower face and neck lift. I think if you want something done, then why not? I’m getting older, so some tweaks are ok, without going too far”.

Comparing plastic surgery to labour, she added in New magazine: “Recovering from sugery is a bit like giving birth. When you do it, it’s terrifying and difficult, but you later want another one”!
Another plastic surgery afficionado is Kerry’s pal Katie, who recently had a facelift in Turkey. In December, the women will perform as the Ugly Sisters, and Kerry will have her operation scheduled for the evening.
She said she won’t have her performance finished until next year because she wants to get it out of the way before performing it in Cinderella. I’m always going to be nervous, but I trust my doctors and am excited”.
After having reconstructive nose surgery, Kerry opened up about her plastic surgery experience on Good Morning Britain in May. She had an eight-hour operation to repair extensive damage brought on by years of cocaine use.
Kerry revealed that her mother had given her drugs at a young age, and that she had once had an overdose, which didn’t stop her from using them again until recently.
“My mum wasn’t very well. It is what it is. I can’t sit with hatred”, Kerry said as host, Richard Madeley, was clearly shocked by her story. However, when mentioning her previous cosmetic procedures, the Atomic Kitten star poked fun at herself as she added: “I’m like a flat pack from IKEA, I come with instructions to put this up because I’ve had that much done”.
Kerry took to Instagram to share her progress as she revealed she had had a rhinoplasty earlier in May 2024. The I’m A Celebrity star, who was bandaged up on the social media platform, stated at the time: “I’m in a lot of pain and I’ve been sleeping for two days because I’m finding it difficult to breathe through my nose.”
She then explained how the procedure was made possible, revealing: “They took a piece of my rib and built it inside my nose – it’s mad. It’s been agony”. After the operation, Kerry recalls that she went home after the anaesthesia wore off, so I had to return to work in my pajamas at 1 a.m. When I see the blood, it really frightens me because I can’t breathe properly. I know it’s worth it though”.

Cruz Beckham’s dating antics have left his mother Victoria Beckham concerned and upset as she fights for her brand’s image.
While his 22-year-old brother Romeo Beckham searches for love on dating apps after his split from Mia Regan, Cruz Beckham has caused a stir online for his own love life as he was accused of infidelity by two different women, Bby Ivy, 21, (known legally as Viktoria Reitan) and Issey Moloney, 19.
Both women shared their grievances with the youngest of David and Victoria Beckham’s three sons over on TikTok, leaving his 50-year-old allegedly “devastated”, according to a source close to the former Spice Girl.
But Cruz isn’t the only one of Victoria’s sons to have earned himself a lothario’s reputation. After enjoying a date with influencer Amelia Gray Hamlin, Romeo was seen with model Sophie Julia on his arm just days later, sparking concerns he may be unfaithful.

Speaking to Heat Magazine, the insider said: “Vic was devastated when she heard the cheating claims”. And while she is “praying that they’re false, there’s understandably a part of her that’s wondering if there’s any truth to them”.
The source added that rumours of Cruz’s infidelities have had a considerable impact on the fashion mogul: “The thought of any of her sons being a cheat makes her feel sick to her stomach”, most particularly due to the fact she has brought her sons up “to respect women”.
Victoria is “petrified” of what the rumours could mean for her sons ‘ image: “Vic has worked so hard to bring her sons up to respect women, so seeing them portrayed as players is really upsetting for her, and she’s petrified that the boys are going to be labelled as Lotharios”. To make matter worse, the cheating allegations targeting her sons have been “very triggering”, due to her own experiences with infidelity rumours aimed at her husband, David Beckham.
This comes after Cruz was most recently linked to German-Brazilian singer and songwriter Jackie Apostel and their age-gap romance turned heads at the Paris Fashion Week, where the pair were spotted together as a couple.
Cruz previously admitted he had a crush on Billie Eilish and even asked her out on a date via a magazine interview. The teenager is closer in age to the 22-year-old Lunch singer. Cruz told i-D magazine in 2022: “I’m really into Billie Eilish. I love her music, I love her style. And I’d love to take her on a date. So Billie, you know where I’m at”. Romeo, on the other hand, has seemingly remained close to Sophie Julia as the couple were seen embarking on a lavish London date back in September, 2024.
Mirror Online has reached out to Victoria’s reps for comment.
Adam Thomas, a former Emmerdale star, owes the taxman a six-figure sum as a result of his restaurant’s closure in Manchester.
The 36-year-old soap hunk, who competed on Strictly Come Dancing on the BBC last year, also considers himself an entrepreneur because he has invested heavily in various businesses over the years. The Spinn in Manchester, one of his off-screen endeavors, opened in 2019 and faced immediate problems as the Covid-19 pandemic slammed the restaurant.
Adam and his business partner Scott Graham made the decision to close the restaurant in 2022. However, reports have suggested the company owed £100, 000 in tax debts, and now a new report has suggested Adam is being investigated for over-owed money.
Information listed on Companies House reveals Adam resigned from his role as a director at the restaurant’s parent company, Gatley Bar &, Grill Limited, in April 2022. Scott is still listed as an active director. A confirmation statement and accounts are also listed on the company’s page, but they are both overdue.

Since The Spinn closed, the former Emmerdale star has concentrated his energies on other things.
Within three months of our appointment, The Sun quotes a report that looked into the business, stating: “We have spoken with the director, ex-director, and creditors, carried out our initial SIP2 investigations, and submitted our directors’ conduct report to the Department for Business and Trade.” According to the report, “We have submitted a report to the Department for Business and Trade under the ODDA 1986 regarding the conduct of the company’s director and former director.” As this is a confidential report, we are unable to disclose the contents”. The Mirror has contacted Adam’s spokesperson for comment.
Adam discussed the closure of his business previously with the Manchester Evening News, saying: “Unfortunately, we have decided to close The Spinn. We learned a lot from our first venture by doing what The Spinn required of us to do. more importantly, we had an absolute blast. However, we decided that the time was right for us to move on after three years. We are now focusing on the next chapter of The Spinn … The Spinn off]bar] and Oh My Glaze]burger sauce company]”.
Adam previously described the difficulties the business faced to the same outlet. When we went into lockdown, he said, “We had to change our lives overnight, we didn’t have time to feel sorry for ourselves, we had to learn something from the situation, and we’ve since created a real buzz with the burger menu.”
He added at the time: “It was a nightmare, we never saw it coming, no one did. The building was only operational for six months, and it took forever to get it up and running. We could have shut down and taken a vacation, but we wanted to use the space to spread the best possible vibe for the area.
