Taylor Swift ignited a frenzy among her Swifties by bringing boyfriend Travis Kelce onstage at her Eras Tour concert on Sunday.
During her third show at London’s Wembley Stadium, the 34-year-old pop singer surprised the audience with a special performance including the NFL star, also 34.
Decked out in a tuxedo and top hat, the Kansas City Chiefs player joined Swift during her I Can Do It With a Broken Heart outfit change. The tight end beamed as he carried his girlfriend, gently placing her on a red couch at the center of the stage.
This marked the first time the duo appeared on stage together, following the official announcement of their relationship on Instagram Friday evening.
The reactions from Taylor’s fans lit up social media, many in awe that Travis handled the performance like a professional, even showing off some of his signature dance moves.

‘If you would’ve told me a year ago that Travis Kelce would be on stage with Taylor Swift, I wouldn’t have believed you…’ wrote one follower.
Another posted, ‘Did I just hallucinate or did Travis Kelce just go on stage in costume and carry Taylor and help her get changed into ICDIWABH.’
‘TRAVIS KELCE DRESSING UP AS ONE OF TAYLOR’S DANCERS ON STAGE WAS NOT ON MY 2024 BINGO CARD HOLY F***,’ yet another chimed in.
Still more shared their excitement, as one wrote, ‘You guys realize Travis coming out on stage with Taylor in London is literally the most masterful, insane, symbolic thing ever right?’
Another summed it up nicely, sharing, ‘So the 3x Super Bowl champion tight end of the Kansas City Chiefs has joined his superstar girlfriend on stage in front of Paul McCartney and 89k in London. A real sentence. Of all the timelines, this is the greatest. Long live Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce.’
The onstage surprise comes after Taylor posted an epic selfie with the NFL star, Prince William, Prince George and Princess Charlotte taken backstage.
Although the superstar couple has been romantically linked since 2023, this Instagram post marks the very first appearance of Travison Taylor’s social media.
‘Happy Bday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start @princeandprincessofwales,’ the Cardigan singer captioned the incredible snap, referring to the future King of England’s 42nd birthday.

‘Are you telling me the first time Travis is posted on Taylor’s social media, it’s with Prince William, Prince George, and Princess Charlotte? THIS IS ICONIC,’ wrote one follower.
Another referred to a separate selfie Prince William shared of his two kids and Taylor backstage, writing: ‘the gag of it all is the fact that taylor also took a picture with prince william and his kids alone, but chose to upload the picture to her social media that includes travis.
‘she’s loud and proud, and not hiding it. :’) if you told me this one year ago, i would call you crazy.’
The eagle-eyed Swifties also noticed that Travis started ‘liking’ several of Taylor’s recent posts soon after they made their relationship Instagram official.
‘the way travis just went on a liking spree on taylor’s instagram and liked 5 of her posts in a row… this man lives on the floor,’ posted one amused fan.
Yet another chimed in: ‘The way it’s like he was waiting for her to make it “ok” by posting him is making me feel things. What a time to be alive.’
One Swiftie even posted screenshots of the posts Travis was ‘liking’ with the caption: ‘Travis is currently liking every single post by Taylor I am crying.’
Dating rumors about the superstar couple began circulating in September 2023 when Taylor was seen at multiple Travis NFL games.

Since then, they’ve consistently supported each other at various public events.
Travis has been spotted at Swift’s Eras Tour concerts around the globe, from Australia and Paris to Singapore and now London.
Taylor, in turn, has frequently attended Travis’ games, including celebrating his victory with his team at the 2024 Super Bowl in February.
Meanwhile, Taylor also sent fans in a frenzy when she graced the stage with five surprise songs for her first London gig during her Eras Tours on Friday.
Over 90,000 Swifties packed into Wembley Stadium to see the American superstar give her all in the first of her three performances in England’s capital.
And fans received quite the treat when she performed five songs in two unexpected mashups during the ‘surprise segment’ of the show.
Taylor performed a guitar mashup of Hits Different and Death By A thousand cuts.
She then graced her piano and performed a three-way mashup of The Black Dog into Come Back Be Here before rounding off her melody with Maroon.

The songstress had not performed The Black Dog prior to Friday and admitted to her stadium of fans that she was nervous.
The blonde beauty said: ‘I have never played this song live before so pray to God.’
Her recent mashup was fitting for her London audience because the song Come Back Be here from her album Red is a nod to her London life as she name drops the capital in her lyrics.
London is the only city that she will return to twice during her Era Tours. She will later return to the venue for another five shows in August, which will serve as the conclusion of the European leg of the tour.
Elsewhere during her performance on Friday, she branded London the ‘most exhilarating city in the world’ amid a huge crowd of her fans.
Her performance also comes after split from Joe Alwyn.
Addressing her fans, Taylor is heard saying: ‘There are eighty-eight thousand four hundred and forty-six people in this stadium.
‘Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’m thinking about how beautiful you are and just how wonderful it is thinking about the way you can spend your time in the most exhilarating city of the world.’

Before her romance with her footballer boyfriend Travis, Taylor dated actor Joe Alwyn from 2016 to 2023.
They kept their romance away from the public eye, but in typical Taylor fashion she occasionally referenced Joe in her music, despite them reportedly splitting amicably.
‘Busy schedules and differing priorities’ were the reasons given when they parted ways.
But now Taylor has showed the world she can both tour the world as one of the biggest popstars in the globe and manage a blossoming love life as her and Travis have before the world’s most adored couple.
In a bid to keep the spark alive between the two during her busy schedule, she has reportedly coughed up for a £15,000 a week Cotswolds retreat during her London concerts.
Taylor, who is being supported by her footballer boyfriend Travis while in the UK, is believed to be residing in a luxury farmhouse estate, according to The Sun.
She is said to be a stones throw away form some the UK’s biggest celebrities including Posh and Becks, Simon Cowell and Amanda Holden.
The swanky property, which is near Chipping Norton, reportedly comes with its own sizeable swimming pool and extravagant tennis court.
A source told the publication: ‘Off stage, Taylor is very low key and likes her home comforts.

‘She has rented a lovely place in the Cotswolds for some downtime.’
MailOnline has contacted Taylor’s representatives for a comment.
Travis allegedly landed in the UK on Thursday to support the singer in time her first night of her London tour stint.
The Kelce family touched down in London for Taylor‘s Eras Tour concert in London, as Travis was joined by his brother Jason, his sister-in-law Kylie and his dad, Ed, at Wembley.
Travis showed up in a relaxing fit, sporting a white, Team USA Olympics cap and black polo, which matched the color of his shorts. He shook hands with Scott Swift – Taylor’s dad – upon his arrival at the sold-out show.
And so did Jason, who was closely followed by Kylie, in jeans and a dark lumberjack button down shirt.
He was seen dishing out some of Taylor’s tour-made friendship bracelets before the concert, as ‘Swifties’ were quick to snatch some off his hands.
The pop princess kicked off her London Eras Tour residency and those in the star-studded VIP tent include supermodel Cara Delevingne as well as Bridgerton darling Nicola Coughlan.
As she started her three-hour long set, Taylor Swift said: ‘You’re making me feel like tonight I get to play my first sold out show at Wembley Stadium on The Eras Tour!’
She added: ‘There are 88.446 people in this stadium today.’
Including the leader of the Labour party Sir Kier Starmer and his wife. In a post on X he joked: ”Swift’ campaign pit stop.’
Today is the first of three sold out dates at Wembley, with the international sensation returning in August to perform another five.
Taylor’s adoring fans were brimming with anticipation to know if she will perform any of her London-inspired hit songs.
Among a few is London Boy from her 2019 album Lover, which is speculated to be about her ex-boyfriend of six years and British actor Joe Alwyn.
Wembley is awash with sparkling outfits, cowboy hats, gemstones and glitter today as thousands of Taylor Swift fans gathered for her opening night in London.
Swifties had travelled from across the country for the latest sell-out performance of her Eras Tour.
Teenage girls and boys were joined by mums, dads and younger siblings – and fans of all ages – ahead of the three-and-a-half hour gig, that has already blown the roofs off stadiums across Britain and Europe.
Devoted followers sang the lyrics of her many hits word-perfect that were blasted out at the Taylor Swift fan zone at the BoxPark Wembley on the Olympic Walk up to the stadium entrance.
Fans exchanged bracelets and discussed their favourite tunes ahead of the big event. Others joined long queues to buy official merchandise – t-shirts, sweat-shirts, hats and bags.
Fans have predicted that the American megstar will choose a London-themed tune as her surprise song.
Many are hoping for Swift’s more melancholy hits such as ‘So Long, London’ and ‘The Black Dog’ from her recent album The Tortured Poets Department.
‘The Black Dog’ is largely believed to be about 1975 singer, Matty Healy, who she reportedly has a brief two week relationship with following her break-up with Alwyn.
The lyrics seemingly reference a Vauxhall pub, as well as band – The Starting Line – whose songs The 1975 have covered several times during their tour.
‘So Long, London’ is widely rumoured to be a goodbye song to the city as well as her ex-partner Alwyn.
During the woeful track, she sings: ‘I left all I knew, you left me at the house by the Heath.
‘I stopped CPR, after all it’s no use. The spirit was gone, we would never come to. And I’m p****d off you let me give you all that youth for free.’
