Travis Kelce is looking to expand his portfolio thanks to the influence of his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.

The athlete reportedly targets the hospitality sector, with plans to venture into the hotels and resorts industry.

Renewal of his contract with the Kansas City Chiefs, securing lucrative brand partnerships, and increased attention for his relationship with Swift have all contributed to the NFL star's growing presence in the business world.

Kelce's thriving business ventures have steadily grown, substantially increasing his financial accounts.

The tight-end star is reportedly actively seeking opportunities to expand his financial portfolio and focus on achieving success in his professional and personal endeavors.

A source claimed that his love for travel ignited during his time with the 14-time Grammy winner, and it immediately became his particular interest.

After their vacation in the Caribbean, Kelce discovered a newfound passion for that specific region.

They told The Sun that Kelce, aside from investments, is actively engaging in discussions to potentially take on a role as a brand ambassador for prestigious resort destinations.

"Kelce is a dynamic guy that wants to invest in things that he loves, and where he thinks that he will make very good business."

"He has been talking for many months now that hotels and resorts are a target for him, and there have been talks with many groups in the recent weeks to have him get on board as a shareholder and even an ambassador for some groups that have hotels and resorts all over the world, like many beach places like the Bahamas, Thailand, some Greek Islands and Barbados for example."

The athlete was recently granted a generous compensation package that focused on spearheading an advertising campaign for luxury resorts.

He was reportedly given company shares to deepen his understanding of the resort industry.

The source said being appointed an ambassador involves a money-spinning package of approximately $2 million annually from a global hotel and resort conglomerate. The offer includes a promotional campaign highlighting his travels and a TV advertisement.

Additionally, the company extends shares to him, allowing him to immerse himself in the business and gain valuable insights.

The insider added that Kelce's strategy involves gaining insights into the company as a brand representative before committing funds to the organization.

"I think that is a very good idea, to have him as an ambassador and have him get and learn about this specific business, before investing some of his money in that group."

They went on to say, "The other two talks are with groups that have mainly hotels and resorts in the Caribbean and the West Coast (to Cabo) and Hawaii, he loves Hawaii!"

According to the source, the Super Bowl champ may serve as a company ambassador, accumulating resources before establishing a resort in a location he has long envisioned.

They added that there is a potential opportunity for him to participate in the investor pool, contributing an estimated $3 to $4 million over three years. This investment would position him among investors gearing up to launch upscale hotels and resorts in Hawaii and Cabo, Mexico.

News of Kelce's investment comes after reports that he is "unofficially engaged" to the "Fortnight" singer.

According to an insider who spoke to Life & Style magazine, "They're very coy on the subject and quick to deny any specifics which is fair enough since they haven't come up with any yet, but they love to talk in general terms. It's something they've been doing for a while and the secret is now leaking out."
