Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce has been a regular fixture at the pop star’s Eras tour and a body language expert has given their relationship the once over following the NFL star’s antics
A body language expert has suggested that Taylor Swift “clearly loves” the antics of her beau Travis Kelce, noting that the Kansas City Chiefs star’s ease with the spotlight reduces the “risks” of them not being a good match.
The antics of Travis Kelce during the Eras Tour appear to have endeared him even more to Taylor Swift
Throughout his off-season, the NFL tight end has been seen romantically getting together with the pop sensation in a number of locations across the globe. Swift has been spotted supporting Kelce from the stands and even going up on stage with her at concerts all over the world since he saw her win his third Super Bowl in February.
Kelce showed he’s no stranger to the limelight when he made a surprise appearance during Swift’s London concert, charming fans at Wembley Stadium. Not stopping there, he jetted off to Dublin to catch Swift perform, making an unexpected visit.
Videos later surfaced showing the couple sharing a warm embrace backstage after Swift’s performance in Dublin. In a tender moment, Kelce was captured guiding his other half past adoring fans, encouraging the crowd to ramp up their cheers for the “Anti Hero” singer.
He then paused, throwing his arms aloft in his love’s direction as he appeared to be in awe of the singer – before they linked arms and walked away together. Now, body language expert Judi James has given the Mirror the lowdown on what this scene showed about the relationship between the world-famous duo.
She said: “So while we’re all cooing over this footage of Travis and Taylor and the way he acts like he adores her and how she laughs and grabs his bicep in the kind of gesture you get from committed couples, it does need pointing out that the pair have very different body language behaviours from when she appears at his moments of sporting triumph to when he appears at her moments of glory.
“When Travis is present at Taylor’s concert tour though he has so far appeared up on stage, playing to the crowds like a true acting pro, dressing in costume and showing off his thespian chops to her huge crowd, which he hailed and played to like a star. Here he does similar, playing to the crowd of Swifties by running ahead and miming a comedy bow to introduce her, interacting directly with her fans as he does so.
James also posited that Swift’s respective body language suggested that she head over heels with her footballer boyfriend, as she said: “Taylor clearly loves it and she clearly loves him. Her ex Joe Alwyn was much more of a privacy fan so Travis’s love of show-boating might feel like a stress-free contrast.”
The expert believes that Travis Kelce’s ease with the limelight could be a breath of fresh air for Swift, who has navigated the complexities of fame in past relationships. James remarked: “As J-Lo has found out, it’s a risk when an international star marries a man who dislikes being a show-pony or having his privacy compromised.”
“Travis, thankfully, seems to have no fame-phobias, which must make life easy for Taylor. But it might just be nice to see him doing as she does so thoughtfully and avoiding upstaging her or even joking about her via the comedy intro when it’s her turn to be the star.”
