EXCLUSIVE Feeling worse for wear, Travis? NFL star Kelce dons dark glasses as he is spotted grabbing lunch with pals at Cecconi’s in LA… hours after ‘partying with girlfriend Taylor Swift at Gucci’s Oscars after-party’
Travis Kelce pushed through his post-Oscars hangover to head out for lunch with some friends in Los Angeles on Monday afternoon.
The NFL superstar reportedly spent Sunday night at Gucci’s Oscars after-party alongside his girlfriend Taylor Swift, with the pair enjoying a whirlwind few days having flown back from her Eras Tour in Singapore.
Taylor was nowhere to be seen on Monday, though, as Kelce donned his dark glasses and opted for a casual look as he joined some pals at Cecconi’s.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end wore a cream cardigan, white t-shirt and green trousers for the chilled lunch date, before driving away in his Range Rover.
The predominantly male group was also joined by a mystery blonde woman as they left the lunch spot in California.

It is understood Kelce and Swift did not attend the actual Oscars ceremony at the Dolby Theater, instead opting to keep a low profile and instead head to an afterparty.
People report that the couple jetted back from Singapore just in time to enjoy the festivities, with Taylor now set to enjoy a two-month break before she undergoes the mammoth European leg of the tour.
They headed to Gucci’s ‘The Party’ on Sunday night, which was held at talent manager Guy Oseary’s Los Angeles home.
It was reported that among the fellow attendees were Best Actor winner Cillian Murphy, Billie Eilish, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, and more.
Kelce is still reveling in the success of his own season, having won the Super Bowl in Las Vegas last month.

In the wake of the busy season, he has been to three Eras Tour shows, one in Melbourne, and then the fifth and sixth nights in Singapore.
Just hours after Kelce was spotted out for lunch in LA, he and brother Jason scooped the Podcast of the Year award at the iHeart Radio awards.
Despite not being in Austin, Texas to personally pick up the trophy, the NFL brothers recorded a message for the audience.
In it, Travis joked: ‘Get the f*** outta here… people actually listen to this?’
Jason then went on to thank Taylor Swift‘s fans for voting for them to win.

Beginning their acceptance speech, Jason said: ‘Right now, we are actually talking to the entire iHeart Radio Awards audience,’ before Travis added: ‘Oh s***, well we wish we could be there guys, but we are honored to accept this award.’
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end then added: ‘Podcast of the Year is big s***,’ before Jason continued: ‘It’s an incredible honor, especially for two jabronis like us.
‘To receive an award like this is beyond humbling, and we would be remiss if we didn’t immediately thank all the 92 percenters, AKA Swifties, for voting for us.’
Earlier in the night, the Kelce brothers had also won Best Overall Ensemble, but had missed out on Best Sports Podcast to Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay.
