On Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift: I hope their silence speaks volumes for the rest of us.

On Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift: I hope their silence speaks volumes for the rest of us.

This just in: Taylor Swift did something very smart this year. Tracis Kelce, too.

Sad to say, they’re probably in the minority

Short version: Swift and her boyfriend, Kelce (tight end for the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs, but you knew that, right?) are on vacation in the Bahamas as I write this, enjoying what seems like an especially relaxing vacation.

We know this because Swift and Kelce have been tracked for at least part of the trip by paparazzi trying to get a video or a shot. (Successfully in some cases.)

I’ll share just a few of the public details of where they stayed and what it was like, and then we’ll get to the true point:

They stayed in a 6-bedroom house on Harbour Island known as Rosalita House.
Previous guests included Kylie Jenner, and the spot goes for roughly $15,000 per night.
“Rosalita is a stunning, palatial, beachfront villa in Harbour Island,” according to the estate’s website, ” a paradisal strip of beach northeast of Eleuthera, where cars are forbidden and the sands are pink.”
And The New York Post describes it thusly:

“Perched atop a hillside shielded by a towering 25-foot dune, this haven provides Swift and NFL star Kelce with unparalleled privacy during their stay.

But the real luxury lay in the service, with a personal chef and sous chef, a house manager, three butlers, three housekeepers, three gardeners/beach maintenance workers and an evening security guard.”

So, a nice place.

Personally, I’ve been to the Bahamas a few times and loved it.

In fact, put me on a plane heading southeast from New York City in the early spring, and a few hours later, whether it’s Aruba or Puerto Rico or St. Croix, or any one of several other destinations in that part of the world, I’ll be quite happy.
