Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce enjoys date night ahead of upcoming NFL season
Washington DC [US], June 30 (ANI): Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were recently spotted spending quality time together in New York.
The singer and the Kansas City Chiefs player, who never miss an opportunity to spend time with each other, were seen holding hands as they stepped out for a date night in New York City ahead of the upcoming NFL (National Football League) season, reported People.
For this special outing, Swift wore a pink and white houndstooth Balmain dress, which features gold metal chain straps and six gold buttons down the front. She accessorised her look with a tan purse and tan shoes, as per the outlet.
On the other hand, Kelce opted for an oversized short-sleeve white shirt and blank pants, which he paired with black shoes and a pair of stylish shades.
Swift and Kelce's date night in New York City took place after the couple were spotted leaving a Manhattan restaurant on June 20, reported People.
Swift and Kelce also enjoyed spending time together in Nashville and were seen having dinner with Swift's childhood best friend, Abigail Anderson, and her husband, Charles Berard. The singer also gave a surprise performance at Kelce's Tight Ends & Friends concert at the Brooklyn Bowl.
Taylor and Travis stepped out for dinner dates in Florida and later left for the NHL Stanley Cup final on June 12.
The couple, who began dating in 2023, made what fans called their "red carpet debut" at Kelce's event. He founded the annual three-day summer training camp in 2021, alongside George Kittle and sportscaster Greg Olsen, as reported by People.
It was not the first time the pair had graced a sports game. Not only did they enjoy a PDA-filled outing to the US Open in New York City last summer, where they were joined by fellow Chiefs player Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, but Taylor also became something of a staple at Travis' home games in Kansas City, supporting him whenever she was free.
After the summer, a source informed that Swift is "really looking forward" to supporting Kelce during the upcoming NFL season.
"Not just because she loves supporting Travis, but because for the first full season since they started dating, she's not juggling a packed tour schedule," the insider said.
Meanwhile, Swift wrapped the final show of her Eras Tour in Vancouver, British Columbia, in December 2024, reported People. (ANI)

Blackout challenge: 12-year-old dies after attempting social media trend; what is the choking challenge?
Representative Image A 12-year-old boy from Castleford, England, has died while performing a dangerous social media trend known as the "blackout challenge." The incident has reignited global concern over harmful online content targeting children as reported by People. West Yorkshire Police confirmed that a boy died in Castleford, on Friday, media outlet Yorkshire Live reported Authorities responded to an emergency call at a residence in Manor Grove, Castleford, following reports of a child in distress. He was taken to hospital, where he was declared dead. An investigation has been launched under the supervision of the West Yorkshire Coroner, although police have confirmed that the incident is not being treated as suspicious. What is Blackout Challenge? According to Healthline The 'blackout challenge,' also known as the 'choking challenge,' is a dangerous online trend spreading on platforms like TikTok. It encourages participants to restrict their own breathing—usually by holding their breath or using objects—until they pass out. The act can lead to serious brain injury or even death. A GoFundMe campaign launched by a family friend Agnieszka Czerniejewska claims Sebastian lost his life after attempting the "blackout challenge," Czerniejewska also urged parents to closely monitor their children's online activities, writing- 'The online world can be as dangerous as the real one — sometimes even more so.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The fundraiser, which has raised over $5,700, also described Sebastian as a gifted and joyful child who taught himself guitar and keyboard, loved to draw, and was deeply loved by his family. This incident comes just months after British families filed a lawsuit in the US against TikTok, alleging the deaths of their children — aged 12 to 14 — were caused by the same challenge. According to The Guardian, the lawsuit accuses TikTok of using its algorithm to push dangerous content to vulnerable users to increase engagement and profit. TikTok, in its defence, has stated that content related to the blackout challenge has been blocked since 2020 and that the platform removes such material proactively. The platform says it directs users searching for harmful challenges to safety resources.

Marcus Trescothick joins Southern Brave Men as batting coach
London [UK], June 30 (ANI): Former England opener Marcus Trescothick has been named the batting coach for Southern Brave's men's team for the upcoming 2025 edition of The Hundred. He replaces Jimmy Adams, who will be coaching Hampshire in the One Day Cup during August, according to ESPNcricinfo. Trescothick currently serves as the batting coach for the England men's team and stepped in as interim coach during their white-ball series last July. This marks his first coaching assignment in The Hundred. Luke Williams has been appointed as the new head coach of Southern Brave's women's side for The Hundred 2025, taking over from Charlotte Edwards, who recently stepped up as head coach of the England Women's team. Williams brings a wealth of coaching experience to the role. He has been part of the Brave setup since the tournament's inception, serving as Edwards' assistant. Under their leadership, the team reached the final in 2021 and 2022 before finally clinching their maiden title in 2023. Beyond The Hundred, Williams has also found success on other major stages. He led the Adelaide Strikers to back-to-back Women's Big Bash League (WBBL) titles in 2022 and 2023, and steered Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) to their first-ever trophy in the Women's Premier League 2024. Following Edwards' transition to the national role, Williams was involved as a consultant coach during England Women's recent home series against the West Indies. At Southern Brave, he will be reunited with South Africa captain Laura Wolvaardt, a familiar face from his time at the Strikers. 'It's a privilege to take charge of Southern Brave this year from Charlotte Edwards,' Williams said in a statement, as quoted from ESPNcricinfo. 'Having worked with the team since for a number of years, we have an excellent group of players and staff and recruited well in the draft earlier this year, so hopefully we can get back to Finals Day and lift the trophy this summer,' he added.
