Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift hold hands in first PDA photos since whirlwind romance
Welcome (back) to New York, Traylor.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were spotted holding hands for the first time since their whirlwind romance took the world by storm.
The pair braved the rainy weather and grabbed dinner at Nobu in NYC on Saturday evening, just hours before Kelce and Swift both made surprise appearances on “Saturday Night Live.”
The “Blank Space” singer wore an oversized gray trench coat over an all-black ensemble for the outing.
She kept her blond locks pulled back in a ponytail and wore her signature red lipstick.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end opted for brown pants, white sneakers and an embroidered cream-colored jacket.
Kelce and Swift jetted back to the East Coast together two days after his Thursday night football game against the Denver Broncos.
The NFL star has a couple days off due to the early game, and he and Swift are expected to spend some quality time together this weekend.
Swift has a swanky apartment in Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood, which Kelce has already visited at least once before.
An insider told the Messenger Sunday that Kelce — who got hurt during the Oct. 8 game that Swift skipped — believes the “Cruel Summer” singer is his key to success.
“He jokes she is his good luck charm,” the source said.
Meanwhile, Swift apparently “is having the time of her life at these football games cheering on Travis.”
“Her and her friends are fully embracing this era and are having a lot of fun being there.”
The singer shocked Swifties and NFL fans alike when she showed up to the Chiefs’ winning games against the Chicago Bears and the New York Jets back-to-back.
While the Chiefs were in New York, Swift even brought along some of her high-profile friends — including Hugh Jackman, Sophie Turner, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
“Taylor has worked very hard this last year and It’s fun for her to bring all of her friends along, let loose and show support,” the insider added.
Although Swift left the Jets vs Chiefs game with her pals, Kelce was spotted leaving her Tribeca apartment that morning.
An insider told Page Six at the time that the hunky NFL star was seen driving out of Swift’s parking garage in the pop star’s black Range Rover at around 11 a.m.
Kelce — who was slated to play just hours later — quickly made his way to the Chiefs’ hotel in Weehawken, N.J., where he was photographed in exceptionally good spirits.
A few days later, sources told Us Weekly that the tight end, 34, is “smitten” with the “Anti-Hero” singer — and the feelings seem to be mutual.
“Taylor’s really enjoying getting to know Travis,” a source told the outlet. “They’re taking it day by day, but she has high hopes.”
They continued, “She likes that he’s a normal, nice guy. He’s down-to-earth and isn’t affected by fame. She also thinks he’s hot.”

While Swift has yet to publicly comment on her romance with Kelce, the NFL star has continued to gush about her in the media and on his weekly “New Heights” podcast.
Last week, the tight end told reporters that dating Swift feels like winning the Super Bowl, which he knows a thing or two about.
“As all the attention comes…it feels like I was on top of the world after the Super Bowl and right now I’m even more on top of the world,” he said during a press conference.
Prior to his romance with Swift, Kelce dated model Kayla Nicole. However, the pair called it quits in 2022 after five years together.
Similarly, Swift ended her six-year relationship with Joe Alwyn in April 2023. She was later linked to Matty Healy but the pair ended their fling after less than a month.
