"Everybody knows I'm a family guy," he said. "Her team is her family. Her family does a lot of stuff in terms of the tour, the marketing, being around, so I think she has a lot of those values as well, which is right up my alley."

Addressing their compatibility, Travis said he’s learning a lot. “I’ve never been a man of words,” he said, “Being around her, seeing how smart Taylor is, has been f*****g mind-blowing. I’m learning every day.”

He went on: "Obviously I've never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them…. I've never dealt with it. But at the same time, I'm not running away from any of it…. The scrutiny she gets, how much she has a magnifying glass on her, every single day, paparazzi outside her house, outside every restaurant she goes to, after every flight she gets off, and she's just living, enjoying life. When she acts like that I better not be the one acting all strange."

Taylor and Travis are thought to have begun dating in September after having been introduced earlier in the summer.

Since then, they’ve made headlines when she attends his NFL games and when he’s showed up to watch her Eras Tour concerts.
