Travis Kelce has ticked one of the last-remaining boxes in his romance with Taylor Swift after going Instagram official with the songstress.
The Kansas City Chiefs legend shared a number of loved-up photos with Swift on Thursday as part of an ‘offseason adventures’ Instagram dump, which marks the first time he has ever posted his girlfriend.
The celebrity power couple, who have dominated headlines since they went public with their relationship in September 2023, look smitten in a number of snaps captured on nights out together.
Travis and Taylor are first seen posing together in a warm setting, with other pictures showing them out for dinner, clowning around in the snow and skating on an ice rink.
They also took photos with different groups of friends, one of which includes NFL reporters Charissa Thompson and Erin Andrews and their respective partners.
Kelce’s older brother Jason, mom Donna and dad Ed also feature in the Instagram dump, as does Swift’s younger brother Austin.

Nevertheless, Kelce’s offseason dump has mainly sparked a frenzy online because of the intimate snaps he shared of Swift.
The pop megastar’s diehard legion of ‘Swiftie’ fans rushed to the comments to gush over the photos, with one writing: ‘Their happiness is my happiness’.
Another posted: ‘SHE LOOKS SOOO HAPPY OMG’.
While a third put: ‘thank you for this – sincerely, all swifites’.
Some eagle-eyed Swifties also pointed out how one of the photos shows that Swift features on the lock screen of her boyfriend’s phone.
One commented: ‘why is nobody talking about how she’s his lock screen!!!’
‘The locked screen pic of Taylor and Trav….I just fainted,’ said another.
And a third joked: ‘Not me zooming in on the phone screensaver.’

Kelce and Swift have enjoyed a more low-key offseason together than last year, with the pair only making a handful of public appearances since the Chiefs’ Super Bowl defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles in February.
The most noteworthy of the lot came when Taylor made a surprise cameo at her man’s ‘Tight End University’ event in Nashville last month, where she took to the stage and performed her famous ‘Shake It Off’ song.
On a subsequent edition of his New Heights podcast, Travis explained that they had been cooking up a plan to ‘have some fun’ for some time.
But his older brother Jason was among those who were shocked when footage emerged of the pop sensation on stage.
‘Tay Tay showed up!’ Travis said. ‘We were in Nashville, she grew up in Nashville – she moved there when she was younger – and we had this planned for a while that we were going to have some fun with the tight ends.
He continued: ‘I won’t say when the idea came up but we were there at “Tight End & Friends” and we knew that there was a professional like Kane Brown, who could just figure it out.
‘He’s a pro, he’s been on stage a million times, he’s not shy at all by any means… Tay just went up to him and the band and was like: “Hey if you guys are down, I’ll go up there, play a song and see if we can pop the roof off this place.” And sure enough…’

Travis revealed that before going out to perform, Swift was backstage writing sheets of music for the band.
‘I don’t know, I’m not a musician but she was making sure that the band and everybody (knew it). And then just went out there without practicing and it was pitch perfect and just killed it,’ Travis continued.
‘She’s so good with everybody and making people feel comfortable. And absolutely rocked the stage yet again, it was awesome, man.’
Kelce was back on the practice field on Tuesday as the Chiefs began their preparations for the new NFL season.
From Tuesday until August 13, the team will be based at Missouri Western State University in St Joseph – around an hour north Arrowhead Stadium.
There, Kelce and the other 89 players on the roster will stay in dorms on campus for the duration of camp. That means three weeks without seeing their partners and families. For Kelce, that means three weeks without seeing Swift.
