Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Kiss At Her Eras Tour Show in Sydney Has Sparks Flying

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.
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."
Travis was rocking a mustache—which he debuted in August during training camp—when he was first introduced to Taylor.
As he later noted of the era, "That 'stache and the 87 jersey was pretty iconic there for a little bit, and I had it when I met Taylor for the first time."
By early September, a source close to the situation told E! News that Travis and Taylor were "texting and talking here and there."
"It's been very low-key," the insider explained, "as he's been in season."
Accepting Travis' invite, Taylor joined the athlete's mom Donna Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium to watch him and the Chiefs take on the Chicago Bears. After the game, Taylor and Travis were seen packing PDA at a local bar.
Though folklore had it that it was the couple's first in-person meeting, the "Karma" singer later clarified the two had spent a "significant amount of time" getting to know each other beforehand.
As Taylor noted, "We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date."
As an indication that the relationship was heating up, Taylor brought her squad—including friends Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner, Hugh Jackman, Sabrina Carpenter and Antoni Porowski—to watch the Chiefs play against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
Another sign that Travis could be The 1? Taylor started bonding with Brittany Mahomes—the wife of Travis' BFF and teammate Patrick Mahomes—in and outside of NFL games.
The couple took their romance to TV, making a surprise appearance on the Oct. 14 episode of Saturday Night Live. Their Big Apple takeover also included the after-party for the NBC sketch show and a date night at the Waverly Inn.
During a bye week, Travis traveled down to Argentina to catch the South American leg of Taylor's Eras Tour. Not only did the NFL star bond with Taylor's dad, Scott Swift, at the Nov. 11 show in Buenos Aires, but he also got a special shoutout from the stage.
"Karma is that guy on the Chiefs," Taylor sang, "coming straight home to me."
After the show, the Midnights artist was seen running up to Travis backstage and greeting him with a passionate kiss.
Taylor addressed the lavender craze surrounding her appearances at Travis' games.
"I'm going to see him do what he loves, we're showing up for each other, other people are there and we don't care," she told Time. "The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you're seeing someone."
The music superstar turned Travis' Dec. 17 game into a family affair, bringing her dad to cheer on her man.
Taylor and Travis spent their first New Year's Eve together, sharing a romantic kiss when the clock struck midnight on Jan. 1.
Continuing to bond with Travis' family, Taylor hung out with his brother Jason Kelce and sister-in-law Kylie Kelce at the Chiefs' game against the Buffalo Bills.
Taylor joined Travis on the football field when the Chiefs won the AFC Championship, a victory that cemented the team's spot in the 2024 Super Bowl. The couple shared a celebratory kiss before exchanging the L-word.
"Tay, I'm gonna enjoy with the guys," he told her. "I love you—so much it's not funny."
The pair locked lips on the field after Travis led the Kansas City Chiefs to victory on Feb. 11, 2024 in Las Vegas.
Taylor posted footage of Travis on social media for the first time Feb. 12, poking fun at how she took her parents clubbing with the athlete after the Super Bowl.
