Travis Kelce made an early morning dash in a private jet to ensure he was back in Kansas City to receive Sportsperson of the Year – but left behind girlfriend Taylor Swift and her A-List pals at a birthday bash for disgraced Blake Lively, DailyMail.com can reveal.
The power reunited for an end-of-summer getaway – with the NFL star travelling from the pop sensations $17m Rhode Island mansion to a nearby airfield two days after he first arrived.
Images obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com show Travis boarding the plane and shaking hands with airport staff, before security followed him carrying his bag for the weekend.
Donning a white baseball cap and sweater the star attempted to keep a low profile with cars blocking the view to the plane, before starting the two-hour trip back to Kansas City alone, leaving the ‘Fortnight’ singer alone with her friends.
He climbed the stairs to the Dassault Falcon jet – the same type as his girlfriends – at midnight, giving him several hours before his expected appearance at the Kansas City Sports Awards.

Travis is nominated for the Polsinelli Sportsman of the Year, but could end up accepting the accolade alone despite Swift’s two-month break from touring.
The tight end seems to be taking advice from his jet-setting superstar girlfriend with the early morning flight, with Taylor famously telling him after they won their second Superbowl in Las Vegas that ‘jet lag is a choice’.
Travis and Taylor looked loved up in pictures first published by DailyMail.com, spending quality time together after the singer wrapped up the European leg of her Era’s Tour on Tuesday.
She arrived back in the US on Wednesday, and was joined by her NFL beau and Hollywood pals on Friday – with the guest list including Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Bradley Cooper, Gigi Hadid and their children, along with Wrexham co-owner Rob Mcelhenney.
The couple had been enjoying a wholesome family trip, with Kylie and Jason joining the all-star Chiefs line up with their children, as the latter continues to enjoy his first offseason after retirement.
Jason, who will be starting his new TV role with Amazon Prime next month, and Kylie left Rhode Island a few hours before Travis, heading home to Delaware at around 5pm.
