A fan of a fan, if you will.

Kansas City Chiefs heiress Gracie Hunt recently spoke with PEOPLE about the continued support Taylor Swift shows the four-time Super Bowl-winning team since her romance with Travis Kelce began at the start of the 2023 season.

Before raving about the positive impact the 14-time Grammy winner has had on the Kansas City-based team, 25-year-old Hunt — who’s the daughter of Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt and his wife, Tavia Hunt — praised how “absolutely incredible” Swift is as a person, first and foremost.

“The whole world knows,” Hunt says, adding, “And it’s been such a special time to have her be a part of Chiefs Kingdom. She is just as beautiful and wonderful as you’d ever imagine her to be, so smart and intelligent.”

When thinking about the reality of having the global superstar “cheer on the Chiefs,” the former 2021 Miss Kansas USA was at a near loss for words. “Sometimes it feels a little bit surreal because you and I grew up watching her and falling in love with her music, and so did so much of the world.”

Swift and Kelce first sparked dating rumors in September 2023 after the singer attended a handful of the tight end’s games. The couple confirmed their romance in October 2023 when they stepped out holding hands at a Saturday Night Live afterparty.

In the year that followed, Kelce has spoken about Swift in interviews — and Swift seemingly sings about Kelce on her album The Tortured Poets Department (she even invited him on stage to perform with her during her record-breaking Eras Tour!).

All the while, Swift has continued to cheer on Kelce at his games. She celebrated his 2023 Super Bowl win with a kiss on the field (and at the Chiefs afterparty) to close out last year’s victorious season, and has been a suite staple throughout the 2024 season, too.

Since Swift first showed support for the Chiefs, she’s dramatically influenced the team’s demographic, in addition to the NFL’s audience as a whole. Hunt approximates that the singer “has grown” the fanbase of her family’s franchise “between 30 and 40 percent from her attendance.”

“It’s just been so special to have her be a part of Chiefs Kingdom,” Hunt emphasizes.

Not only has Swift demonstrated team spirit at games but she’s slayed game day style as well — which in Hunt’s opinion, it’s top tier. “If there’s anyone’s game day looks, who I’m definitely dialed into, it’s Taylor’s,” she reveals.

“I love seeing Brittany [Mahomes]’s and all the other wives. My mom always crushes it too,” she continues. “But then when Taylor walks in, we’re all like, ‘What was the fit?'” Of Swift, Hunt adds, “She crushes it, and I absolutely love seeing her game day style.”

Another aspect of Swift that Hunt is sure to point out is her “down to earth” character. “She is so kind and kind to everyone.”

The charismatic personality Hunt describes of the pop star has been on full display for everyone to see, whether they’ve met the singer or not. Just look at the star-studded suite that often gets screen time during games, featuring Swift smiling and cheering alongside fellow Chiefs WAGs.

In November, Chariah Gordon — who is the fiancée of Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr., famously known for making the Super Bowl-winning touchdown last year — told PEOPLE exclusively how Swift lets her guard down at games.

“That’s just who she is… She’s fun, she’s loving, she’s sweet,” Gordon says of the “So High School” singer. “We have a good time and we are there to support our men. She’s just one of the sweetest people ever… that’s just that.”

Now, Hunt tells PEOPLE of Swift: “No matter who you are or what circle you fall in… that just is who Taylor is.”
