Taylor Swift had a familiar face by her side as she arrived at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, November 8, to cheer for husband, Travis Kelce. The singer was accompanied by her longtime friend Karlie Kloss as the Kansas City Chiefs took on the New York Jets. Their glimpses have been making rounds on the internet ever since. It once again grabbed attention to their friendship, which has been the subject of speculation for years. But who is Karlie Kloss, and how is she related to Ivanka Trump?

Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss reunite at Chiefs game

Swift, 36, wore a red sweater as she watched the match from a stadium suite alongside Kloss and her parents, Andrea and Scott Swift. Kelce, meanwhile, made an important first-down catch in the opening quarter. The game was also a milestone for the NFL star as he made his 200th appearance in the league.




Kloss's presence comes a few months after she attended Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding at Madison Square Garden on July 3. Speaking about the couple on the Today show, the model said, “Listen, I try to protect the privacy of my friends’ personal lives. But what I will say is that they’re an amazing couple and I’m so happy for them.”

What happened between Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss?

For the unversed, they became friends in 2013 and were soon among the most talked-about celebrity best friends. They appeared together at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows in 2013 and 2014. Kloss also featured in Swift's 2015 music video Bad Blood, while the two shared the cover of Vogue that same year.

However, rumours of a fallout began circulating around 2017 and 2018. Speculation grew in 2019 after Kloss went on a holiday with Scooter Braun, who was then involved in a public dispute with Swift over the ownership of her master recordings. Braun had acquired the recordings before eventually selling them to Shamrock Capital.

Neither Swift nor Kloss publicly confirmed a falling-out. There were, however, signs that their equation may have improved. Kloss attended Swift's final Eras Tour concert in Los Angeles in August 2023. She also liked the singer's engagement announcement with Kelce in August 2025.

How is Karlie Kloss related to Ivanka Trump?

Meanwhile, Karlie Kloss is married to businessman Joshua Kushner, whom she wed in 2018. Joshua is the younger brother of Jared Kushner, who married Ivanka Trump in 2009. This makes Kloss and Ivanka sisters-in-law.

Their relationship has also attracted attention, particularly because of reports of differing political views. Kloss has previously expressed views that differ from those of the Trump family, fuelling speculation about an uncomfortable equation between the two.
