While enjoying Taylor Swift’s performance in Dublin, Julia Roberts was spotted engaging in conversation with Travis Kelce. It’s worth noting that the Hollywood actress has previously expressed her “kinship” with Patrick Mahomes, the star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs.
Julia Roberts, the beloved star of “Notting Hill,” was among the high-profile attendees at the “Eras Tour” stop in Dublin. The event also saw the presence of the iconic Fleetwood Mac singer, Stevie Nicks. Roberts was spotted in the VIP section engaging in friendly conversation with Kelce. The two even shared a warm embrace, making it a moment to cherish.
Travis Kelce, the Chiefs’ tight end, pleasantly surprised his girlfriend by showing up in the crowd at Aviva Stadium. This unexpected appearance followed his spontaneous appearance on stage with his beloved at London’s Wembley Stadium. The two lovebirds were thrilled to reunite and even bumped into a “Pretty Woman” fan favorite while at the event.
Roberts, a passionate sports enthusiast, has previously expressed her admiration for Mahomes, the Chiefs’ star player, as well as his close friend and teammate. During a guest appearance on SiriusXM’s “The Jess Cagle Show,” the renowned actress shared that she grew to appreciate Mahomes after viewing the “Quarterbacks” series.
While discussing the documentary show that featured Kirk Cousins and Marcus Mariota, she shared how she came to appreciate the hard work and dedication of the individuals showcased. She mentioned her recent indulgence in watching various documentary shows.
As a huge football fan, I have always enjoyed watching documentaries on the sport. Recently, I came across the documentary series ‘Quarterback’ and it has truly left a lasting impact on me. It has given me a whole new perspective on the game and instilled a newfound respect for players like Patrick Mahomes. I am at a loss as to how to express this admiration on a daily basis, but I am grateful for the insight this documentary has provided me.
After watching the Netflix series, Roberts was left with a deep impression. She even admitted that her perception of the quarterback’s role within the team underwent a complete transformation. The show was an eye-opener for her, and she shared her newfound understanding, saying, “I used to think that the quarterback’s job was just to show up and throw the ball around.”
“I disagree with that statement. I can relate to Patrick Mahomes when he talks about the never-ending nature of his work. I often feel like my homework is an endless task, with new elements and concepts to learn and prepare for. I can empathize with him in this regard, and I understand the challenges he faces.”
In 2023, the Chiefs maintained their stronghold on the NFL with another impressive season, led by the talented Kelce and the ever-impressive Mahomes. They secured yet another Super Bowl victory, defeating the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas to claim their third championship in just five years.
