The newly-engaged Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are both no strangers to setting records, but there’s one area where Swift definitively has her fiancé beat: their bank accounts.
According to a financial analysis published by Forbes on Tuesday, August 26, Swift, 35, has an estimated net worth of about $850 million. Meanwhile, Kelce, 35, has an estimated net worth of $70 million.
Per the outlet, most of Swift’s net worth comes from “cash she pocketed” throughout her career and from her historic “Eras Tour,” which ran from March 2023 to December 2024 and became the first tour in history to gross more than $1 billion.
Swift’s other main source of worth is her music catalogue, which she now completely owns after announcing the purchase of the masters to her first six albums in May. (While the number hasn’t been confirmed, she paid a reported $360 million to buy back the music.)
The pop star’s $120 million real estate portfolio is another asset, including a $17 million mansion in Rhode Island which has become a part of her own music’s lore.
Swift also owns a private jet worth roughly $23 million.
As for Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end has earned $111 million before taxes and agents’ fees over the course of his 12-year NFL career. Kelce will return for his 13th NFL season next month, when he will make an estimated $17.25 million in base salary, roster bonus and workout bonus.
Away from football, Kelce has planted his roots firmly inside the entertainment industry in recent years.
His off-the-field earnings are estimated at $80 million, which includes a portion of the three-year, $100 million contract and he and his older brother Jason Kelce’s podcast, “New Heights,” signed with Wondery in August 2024.
Travis also made his acting debut last year on FX’s Grotesquerie, hosted the Prime Video game show Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? and appeared in Happy Gilmore 2, which premiered on Netflix in July.
The football star announced his collaboration with American Eagle on Wednesday, August 27, acting as the creative director for the brand’s launch of AE x Tru Kolors by Travis Kelce, a limited-edition product collaboration with Tru Kolors, his sportswear and lifestyle brand.
Travis also owns a $6 million home in Kansas City and drives a $400,000 Rolls Royce Phantom.
Together, Travis and Swift boast a combined net worth of $1.67 billion.
According to Forbes, that trails Beyoncé and Jay Z’s estimated combined net worth of $2.6 million, but puts them ahead of couples like Rihanna and ASAP Rocky and Victoria and David Beckham.
