"It’s definitely tough to be apart but they do everything they can to make it work and show up for each other," the insider added.

"They’re so in love and very, very happy together," the source gushed. "All their friends and family can see it."

The duo proved as much to the public just last month, as Kelce, 34, dressed as one of Swift's backup dancers at her June 23 show and carried her across the stage.

The athlete also showed how proud he was of the blonde beauty, 34, when they would leave her concerts together, as he would hype up the crowd and wrap his arms around her as they left the stadiums she was playing at.

Swift has seven more stops on the international leg of her tour and three more cities in America, with her spectacular run ending in December.

Despite her busy schedule, there's a chance the "Karma" vocalist will still be able to attend some of her man's football games.

While Swift and her exes used to keep their romance out of the spotlight, she explained in her TIME 2023 Person of the Year interview that she and the "New Heights" podcast co-host enjoy watching each other succeed.

"When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care," Swift said. "The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone."

"We’re just proud of each other," the guitarist gushed.

In fact, it was the music icon's support at Kelce's September 24 game that let the world know the two were seeing each other, as she cheered on the Chiefs in team merchandise alongside his mom, Donna Kelce.

The two then met up after the game and left the stadium together in the tight end's car.

People reported on the couple making it work while being apart.
