Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Landscaping Plans Approved Despite Concern for Animals’ Sex Lives
One resident argued the property should offer more cover for local animals, saying they “need places to have sex.” Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Landscaping Plans Approved Despite Concern for Animals’ Sex Lives Alex Krinsky
The village's Architectural Review Board unanimously approved revised landscaping plans for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's $5.35 million lakefront home in Bratenahl, Ohio, despite concerns from neighbors about wildlife, views, and the overall impact on the natural environment. The proposal includes staggered deciduous shrubs up to 10 feet tall, aimed at providing privacy for the couple.
However, resident Lucy Weller argued that the landscaping should better support native wildlife, suggesting the need for food, cover, and spaces for wildlife to reproduce. Another neighbor, Chuck Bauernschmidt, questioned the density of the proposed plantings, contending that it resembled a forest and questioning its compliance with village ordinances.
While not everyone opposed the plans, some residents urged Bratenahl to welcome the couple, viewing it as a privilege for the community. Swift and Kelce, who purchased the eight-bedroom, 11-bathroom property in March, did not attend the meeting, sending representatives instead. They are not planning to use the home as their primary residence and are expected to sell it upon divorce.
The couple, known for their privacy, has kept details of their home life relatively private, with the latest coverage focusing on her album The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore, which features four new songs.
