Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Hold Hands in New York City Before Surprise ‘Saturday Night Live’ Appearances
Welcome (back) to New York, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce!
On Saturday, the pop superstar, 33, and Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, were spotted holding hands while enjoying a dinner date at Nobu in New York City, according to photos obtained by Page Six.
The budding couple later made separate surprise appearances on Saturday Night Live. Kelce made a cameo at the end of a sketch parodying the NFL frenzy over their romance, while Swift introduced musical guest Ice Spice’s second performance during the show.

After celebrating the release of her new concert film on Wednesday at a celebrity-packed premiere in Los Angeles, Swift headed to Kansas City the next day to cheer on Kelce as his team faced the Denver Broncos at Arrowhead Stadium.
Two hours before kick-off, Swift was spotted walking through the stadium’s locker room club sporting a red Chiefs jacket atop a black top and skirt. She also rocked a gold necklace, black boots and a ponytail.
During a pre-game interview that aired on Prime Video, Kelce vaguely noted he enjoys the “chaos” of his life right now, saying: “I embrace it.” He also explained that he’s learned to compartmentalize and “shut off” when he’s on the field.
Swift’s appearance at Kelce’s game on Thursday marked the third time in two-and-a-half weeks that the star has supported the two-time Super Bowl champ at his games.

During this week’s game, Swift once again reunited with Kelce’s mother Donna Kelce, as well as Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Kelce’s teammate and close friend Patrick Mahomes.
Swift and Brittany were captured laughing and hugging in a suite at Arrowhead Stadium as they watched their respective beaus play the Broncos.
Earlier this month, Swift and her pals — including Brittany, Sophie Turner and Blake Lively — enjoyed dinner at Emilio’s Ballato in New York City the night before the Chiefs faced off against the New York Jets.
