It has now been 18 months since Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift “hard launched” their relationship to the public. Back in September 2023, Swift attended her first Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium, and the couple was seen leaving the venue together after Kansas City took down the Chicago Bears, 41-10.
During their time together, Kelce has developed certain habits around his girlfriend. This includes the special way he holds her hand when they’re out in public.
A couple of past photos of the power couple are making the rounds on social media, and Kelce’s past behavior around Swift has earned the Chiefs star a new nickname.
“travis double hand hold kelce 💕🥺” a post on X read.
Swifties were quick to gravitate to the post, and it has amassed over 9,000 views and 500 likes since it was posted on Thursday night. Apparently, the fans like Kelce’s new nickname, “double hand hold.”

There could be a lot more holding hands for these two in the coming months as they take advantage of their downtime together. Swift is coming off a near-two-year world tour, while Kelce’s season with the Chiefs just ended.
The couple have reportedly gone on a recent vacation abroad and have since returned to U.S. soil. They have been laying low of late, but it appears that they’re spending as much time as they can together.
