Travis Kelce has returned to preseason practices for the Kansas City Chiefs on Tuesday after he helped girlfriend Taylor Swift announce her new album on his 'New Heights' podcast. 

Swift will be a guest on Kelce's podcast, which he co-hosts with older brother Jason Kelce, for the first time, with the episode dropping Wednesday evening. 

The album is Swift's 12th studio album entitled 'The Life of a Showgirl' with the cover art still a mystery. 

Swift's appearance on her boyfriend's podcast has been desired by fans of the 14-time Grammy winner for well over a year, with some predicting she would make the elusive stop when promoting 'TS12', her 12th full-length record. 

Since her guest appearance was first teased early Monday, her fans have responded with massive interest in the episode. 

In under 12 hours, a preview for the episode on X has been viewed over 14million times.

'The Life of a Showgirl' has an unknown release date. That, the song names, and plenty more detail will inevitably emerge when Swift's hugely anticipated appearance on New Heights drops. 

For now, fans have been left scrutinizing how Travis and older brother Jason have helped Swift plant her 'Easter Eggs' - clues about the new music - in what, to the singer's avid fanbase, are agonizingly short clips announcing the upcoming release.

The most obvious tease from the trio is in the background behind Travis and Taylor. There are small squares placed in front of books with 'T.S.' emblazoned across the front.

The one in pride of place, positioned centrally between Travis and Taylor's shoulders, is orange - seemingly the color theme of the new release. But there are others to spotted in the 20 second clip announcing 'The Life of a Showgirl'.

Directly behind Travis, and only really noticeable during the preview clip as the Kansas City Chiefs star moves, is a silver 'T.S.' square - the color associated with Swift's previous record, The Tortured Poets Department. 

Kelce and Swift have spent most of the last several months together with her 'Eras Tour' wrapped and the tight end in the NFL offseason. 

The Chiefs regular season begins on September 5, when they travel to Brazil to face the Los Angeles Chargers.
