Travis Kelce has Taylor Swift's heartbeat skipping down the Eras Tour stage.
At the singer's Feb. 23 concert in Sydney, Australia, the "Karma" singer—donning a pink T-shirt and black shorts—ran off the stage and into the arms of her guy on the Chiefs who was waiting in the wings. The duo shared a hug and quick kiss before exiting the stadium together, arm-in-arm.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end—who was spotted in the V.I.P. tent at Accor Stadium wearing a blue patterned T-shirt and shorts set with friendship bracelets up both arms—may have only arrived in the land down under on Feb. 22, but it's already been a love story for the duo.
In addition to Taylor including her now signature lyric-change at the show—referring to her guy on the Chiefs instead of her guy on the screen during "Karma"—Travis and Taylor were spotted at the Sydney Zoo enjoying a day date together just hours after he touched down in Australia. The loved up duo were also joined for parts of the outing by Sabrina Carpenter, who is currently opening for the Eras Tour.

And as Taylor has back-to-back shows in Sydney until Feb. 26 before jetting off to Singapore, the happy couple's fever dream high may just continue. Given that Travis is officially in his off season after the Chiefs' Super Bowl win, fans can probably expect to see him at a few more Eras Tour shows—especially considering Taylor attended a whopping 13 NFL games in support of her man.
Indeed, Taylor and Travis' relationship continues to level up in the public eye. Taylor even went social media official with the football player by posting a TikTok of him on Feb. 12, shortly after his Super Bowl win—in which she cheekily poked fun at her parents joining in for the post-game celebrations.
And while fans have been able to see quite a bit of the duo's relationship play out, Taylor has also expressed gratitude for their secret moments in crowded rooms—especially before hard launching in September.
As she put it to TIME last December, "We actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I'm grateful for."
Flash forward and they're taking on the world together. Read on for every sweet moment of the couple's relationship.
<p>July 2023: So, Make the Friendship Bracelets</p>
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's love story began in July 2023, when the singer's Eras Tour made a stop at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.
As a huge Swiftie, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end caught the show with hopes of giving Taylor a friendship bracelet with his number on it. However, he failed to complete the pass due to her pre-show rituals.
"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings," Travis shared on the July 26 episode of his New Heights podcast. "So, I was a little butt-hurt I didn't get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her."

After publicly recounting his fumble—a move Taylor would later describe as "metal as hell"—Travis decided to shoot his shot and invite the Grammy winner to watch the Chiefs play at Arrowhead Stadium.
"I threw it out there, I threw the ball in her court," he shared on The Pat McAfee Show. "I told her, you know, 'I've seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead and see which one's a little more lit.' So, we'll see what happens in the near future."
