Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were attending a wedding in New York City when they got swarmed by paparazzi. Instead of capturing the next iconic photo of Swift and Kelce’s romance, the cameras ended up recording video of the moment Travis melted Taylor’s heart with an unexpected gesture.

Travis Kelce proves chivalry isn’t dead

The resulting smile on Swift’s face won Kelce plenty of points with the Swifties, who picked up on his caring attitude and made the video go viral on social media. Amid the intense crowd of journalists and photographers, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end made sure that his girlfriend did not get lost in the moment.

By reminding her to watch her step and then continuing to the car, the 34-year-old NFL star proved he is the perfect man for Swift. Even the global music star herself appeared to be overwhelmed by the amount of attention they were receiving as the paparazzi followed their every move in the Big Apple.

The perfect couple

Kelce not only played it cool and confident while walking his woman to the car, but also looked out for her like a gentleman in the process. His experience as a sports star, TV host, actor, and podcasting mogul combined with his natural personality give him the comfort in the spotlight that is essential to dating Swift.

The power couple jetted straight to New York after the Chiefs’ Thursday night season opener in Kansas City. Not having to play on Sunday gave Kelce a rare free September weekend to spend in the city, and they made the most of it.

The highlight was Sunday’s trip to the US Open tennis finals, where Swift and Kelce met up with Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, despite the ongoing controversy around their political differences.
