Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are now paparazzi-official, with photos and video of the pair holding hands Saturday night confirming their relationship status.
Sometimes a photograph really is worth a thousand words, and this one is telling fans everything they’ve been wanting to hear for the past several weeks. After endless teasing by 2023’s hottest new couple, the pair have finally put the rumor mill to rest by stepping out in public while holding hands.

Fans obviously knew there must be something to the rumors when Swift kept coming back to attend more Kansas City Chiefs games, and hanging out with the tight-end’s mother. However, Swift held back any comments on the matter and didn’t address her dating life with the press.
Kelce acknowledged the time he was spending with Swift, but said he was going to continue to keep his private life under wraps, and refused to share details or confirm they were an item.
Everything changed Saturday when a paparazzo in New York captured the money shot: a photograph of Swift and Kelce holding hands while heading to a “Saturday Night Live” afterparty, according to People.

The 33-year-old pop superstar and 34-year-old athlete stunned fans with cameo appearances on the first airing of “Saturday Night Live” since the writers strike, and if this papparazzi picture is any indicator, they’re likely to make many more public appearances as a couple.
