We've all been living a little vicariously through Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship, right? The singer and the NFL player just seem to love each other so much and they're so publicly supportive of one another. It's such a shift from how Taylor acted with her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn. Although that duo dated for six years, they were hardly ever spotted together and often declined to speak about one another in public. Travis and Taylor (Tayvis) are the polar opposite of that.
Because they've lived so much of their romance in the spotlight, fans have been along for every major part of that journey. We learned how the Kansas City Chiefs player first tried to get in touch with Taylor, we saw her show up to his football games, we saw him dance along at her Eras Tour shows. In short, we saw a true "Love Story" blossom right before our eyes.
Here are 20 of the most romantic moments Tayvis has had so far. And we look forward to many more to come.

The Friendship Bracelet
Since the beginning of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, fans have been making and trading friendship bracelets with references to the singer on them. When Travis went to a show in Kansas City in 2023, he made a bracelet too — for Taylor herself. This was before they were dating, and he made a bracelet with his phone number on it to connect with the singer. Unfortunately he wasn't able to give it to her at the time, but she later found out he was interested and the rest is history. It's so cute that they met in part because he participated in a trend from her tour.
Going to His Football Games
Once the duo started dating, Taylor became a fixture at nearly all of his Kansas City Chiefs games. It used to be rare to see the singer in public at all, but when it came to supporting Travis, she wasn't letting anything stop her. She even showed up for his game on Christmas Day and another game where the temperature was well below freezing. Anything for her man.
Heart Hands
At a Chiefs vs. Bills game that Taylor attended, Travis threw up one of her signature moves after he scored a touchdown — the heart hands. According to Sports Illustrated, the football player said on his New Heights podcast that the sign was to spread love to the city of Buffalo, but we feel like it was a secret reference to his girlfriend, too.

Attending the 'Eras Tour'
Just like Taylor supported Travis at his games, he made sure to attend her concert dates when he could. Seeing him at one of her Argentina shows sent fans into such a tizzy. It had been a long time since we'd seen one of Taylor's boyfriends show up for her in such a public setting.
The 'We Will Stay' Sign
Sometimes at the end of Taylor's song "The Archer," fans will hold up signs that say, "We will stay." It's a response to her lyric, "Who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay?" When in Argentina, Travis got his hands on a sign and made sure Taylor knew that he would also stay for her. Aww.
New 'Karma' Lyrics
The Argentina show was a big night for the couple. It was when we first got the lyric change in Taylor's closing song "Karma." Usually she sings, "Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me," which is a reference to her actor ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn. But when Travis was there for her show, she changed the line to, "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me." And the crowd went wild. She made the change again in Singapore when Travis attended.
Running Into His Arms
At the end of her show in Argentina, Taylor literally sprinted into Travis' waiting arms and gave him a big kiss. The PDA with this couple has been off the charts compared to how secretive Taylor was with her last relationship. We love seeing this duo so happy and publicly in love.
The Way They Hold Hands
We love this photo of Travis and Taylor in New York City. Notice how Travis had both of his hands wrapped around Taylor's? What an adorable way to hold hands. Look closely to see that some of her makeup may have rubbed off on his nose because they were just kissing. They're too cute, honestly.
Super Protective
Travis is basically an extra bodyguard for Taylor since he's a pretty big, muscular football player. Fans went wild when they saw him gently move his girlfriend's actual bodyguard out of the way so Travis could open her car door for her. Such a gentleman.
The Super Bowl Suite
It would be easy for Taylor to foot the bill for all her dates since she's a billionaire now. But we love that Travis makes sure he pays for things, too. According to TMZ, he spent over $1 million for Taylor and her friends to have a suite at the Super Bowl.
Flying All Over the World
Taylor and Travis are technically a long-distance couple, but with access to a private jet, they make things work. Prior to the Super Bowl, Taylor played several shows in Tokyo and then immediately flew back to Las Vegas to watch the game. Shortly after, Travis flew all the way to Australia for basically one day just to get some Taylor time at her show. The commitment is real.
PDA on the Field
There were so many cameras on the couple following the Chiefs AFC Championship Game win, but neither of them seemed to care. They hugged and kissed right there on the field like they were in their own little bubble. We really can't overstate how weird it is to see Taylor engaging in PDA again, but we love seeing her so happy.
Expression of Love
NFL players often wear microphones during big games, so we got to hear Travis tell Taylor Swift he loved her in real time. Skip to 10 seconds to hear the football player say, "Tay, I'm gonna enjoy [the win] with the guys," before adding a quick "love you." The two then kissed.
Sealed With a Kiss
We just wanted to highlight another adorable kiss between the couple. This photo was taken after the Chiefs won the Super Bowl. They were on top of their own little world and it didn't matter who was watching. They just wanted to express their love and joy in this magical moment.
Taylor in Awe
Taylor is used to being at the peak of her industry and winning awards, but now she has a boyfriend with a similar level of success. And she was so proud of him after he won the Super Bowl. "I cannot believe that. I can't believe you … it was unbelievable," she said once she embraced Travis on the field. Skip to 1:30 in the video to watch the sweet moment.
Constant Praise
The adoration of each other's success goes both ways. Not only has Taylor been in awe of Travis' achievements, but he's constantly talking on his podcast about how amazing his girlfriend is, too. He told his New Heights cohost and brother Jason Kelce that while the couple was in Sydney, Australia, the paparazzi was on full alert to get photos. "They helicoptered us. Well not us. Taylor. This is all because Taylor's the biggest and best thing possible."
It's nice that he recognizes how important she is and isn't threatened by her star power.
Singing to Each Other
The internet exploded when videos surfaced of Travis and Taylor partying at a club following his Super Bowl win. In one of the most notable moments from the evening, the duo sung each other the lyrics to Taylor's own song, "You Belong With Me." The moment was captured by Taylor's friend Keleigh Teller and posted to her Instagram Stories. And thank goodness for that.

Dancing to Taylor's Song
"You Belong With Me" wasn't the only Taylor song that the played during the Super Bowl party while the couple was there. The two were also spotted dancing along to "Love Story." Is that not the most romantic thing ever? Also Jason Kelce dancing along while wearing a wrestling mask was hilarious.
Making Things Social Media Official
In this new era of public displays of affection, Taylor posted a TikTok of her time in Las Vegas. It was about how she'd invited her parents on an evening out, thinking it would be chill, but it was a full on club. And in the video Travis makes a quick appearance as well. They're social media official, y'all!
Random References
We can tell someone is really in love when they'll do pretty much anything they can to bring their partner up in conversation. And that's exactly what Travis did when making this cute little "Bad Blood" reference during his podcast. He's got Taylor on the brain, always.
