Taylor Swift’s bodyguard allowed Travis Kelce to pull off a romantic gesture as the couple spent a night out in New York City.
The pop star and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, both 35, dined at a Manhattan restaurant on Friday, June 20.
As the couple was getting ready to exit their car, Kelce hopped out of the vehicle first and walked around to the other side to open Swift’s door, then offering her a hand to help her get out, as seen in fan footage shared online.
Swift’s bodyguard nodded at Kelce as he went to perform the gesture, which is normally reserved for her security team.
The NFL star then helped his girlfriend into the restaurant.
Other fan footage captured on June 20 shows Kelce shaking a restaurant employee’s hand before exiting the building, as Swift followed closely behind.
The couple then paused for a brief moment to grab each other’s hands before getting into a car waiting for them.
For the night out, Swift wore a light blue tank top with a skirt, while Kelce sported a T-shirt and white shorts.
Swift and Kelce’s New York City date night took place after the couple was spotted attending Game 4 of the NHL’s Stanley Cup Final on June 12.
During the event at the Bank Arena in Sunrise, Fla., the “Cruel Summer” musician and her boyfriend watched the matchup between the Florida Panthers and the Edmonton Oilers.

Another source recently told PEOPLE that Swift is “really looking forward” to getting to attend football games for the 2025-2026 season.
“Not just because she loves supporting Travis, but because for the first full season since they started dating, she’s not juggling a packed tour schedule,” the insider said.
Swift wrapped the final show of her Eras Tour in Vancouver, British Columbia, in December 2024. The historic run, which began in March 2023, spanned five continents and grossed over $2 billion in ticket sales, making it the highest-grossing tour in history.
“This fall will be completely different,” the source said, adding, “The past two seasons were a whirlwind between performing across multiple countries, long flights and trying to squeeze in alone time together wherever possible. It wasn’t easy, but they made it work.”
