Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce PDA Caught on Camera

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce shared a sweet moment after the Kansas City Chiefs' loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

The celebrity couple indulged in a rarely seen public display of affection at a Christmas-themed event following the game in Kansas City.

Decked in a black turtleneck and black leather skirt, the singer was seen leaning up towards her man to plant a kiss on his cheek.

The photo was first posted to Instagram by Kelce's barber, Patrick Regan, but later went viral as it was shared around the internet.

It was a rare PDA between the pair, who have been largely private about their relationship since they began dating in July.

Swift has been spotted at a number of Chiefs games to cheer on her NFL boyfriend, while Kelce flew to Buenos Aires to watch her perform in her Eras World Tour in Argentina. They were also spotted dining out in New York and heading to a Saturday Night Live after party in October.

The singer recently opened up about their dating timeline in an interview with Time magazine, which had just named her "Person of the Year."

Swift explained she first started dating Kelce after he attended one of her concerts, then spoke about it on his podcast with his brother and Philadelphia Eagles player, Jason Kelce.

"This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell," she told Time magazine. "We started hanging out right after that."

"By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game?" Swift explained. "We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date."

Kelce revealed on the podcast that he had wanted to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it after attending her concert in July, only to discover Swift wasn't seeing people after the show. Swift's fans exchange friendship bracelets at her live shows.

"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs she sings," he said.

It's been a big week for Swift, who along with her PDA-filled weekend with Kelce, celebrated her 34th birthday on December 13. She also saw her Eras tour make more than $1 billion—which means she's broken the Guinness World Record for the highest-grossing tour of all time.

The tour is projected to generate close to $5 billion in consumer spending in the United States alone, bringing fans together from across the globe.
