Taylor Swift had a special guest at her recent Eras Tour show: her boyfriend Travis Kelce! During her third performance at London’s Wembley Stadium, the 34-year-old pop sensation surprised the audience by inviting the 34-year-old NFL star onstage.
Dressed in a stylish tuxedo and top hat, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end joined Swift during her outfit change for ‘I Can Do It With a Broken Heart’ — a transition that marked the integration of ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ album into her tour. It was the first appearance for both Kelce and Swift, and Kelce enthusiastically stepped in for the dancer who typically assists Swift onstage during this segment.

With a broad smile, Kelce lifted Swift and carefully placed her on a red couch at the centre of the stage, to the loud cheers of the crowd. Fans were thrilled to see the football pro effortlessly carry the singer across the Wembley stage.
Kelce remained part of the segment, helping with Swift’s makeup touch-up as she changed outfits, playfully dusting her face with powder. He also showcased his dance moves and exited the stage with a big smile.
Kelce’s appearance followed their recent Instagram debut together in a backstage selfie at Swift’s first London show with Prince William, Prince George, and Princess Charlotte. This marked Kelce’s debut onstage with Swift, although he has been a regular attendee at her Eras Tour performances since they started dating last year — just as she has supported him during his NFL season.
Their relationship sparked rumours in September 2023 when Swift attended several of Kelce’s games. Kelce clarified in February 2024 that they had been dating for about a month before Swift attended her first game, describing their time together as “a crazy, crazy ride.”
