“I WILL STILL LOVE AND PROTECT MY BABE” says Travis Kelce as he was captured in ‘protective mode’ as he changes image on Taylor Swift date night…

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce looked happier than ever in Las Vegas. The couple are enjoying some downtime before the Blank Space hitmaker has to head back on her Eras Tour.

Fans spotted the couple out and about last week, stepping out for a bite to eat in a glammed-up ensemble at popular Mexican eatery, Toca Madera.

According to its website, the restaurant is a “highly acclaimed steakhouse known for its menu featuring bold flavours and high quality, sustainable, and organic ingredients”. Snaps show the pair heading out for their meal, with body language expert Judi James telling the Mirror that Travis appeared in “protective mode” for the pair’s romantic outing.

“After all his recent neck/shoulder-nuzzling and his graduation beer-swilling, Travis appears to be on his best behaviour here for yet another date night with Taylor.”

“He walks upright and in step beside her, smiling politely as she turns to talk,” she said. Behaviour expert Judi added: “Their hand-hold involves his on top encasing hers, suggesting he’s still in protective mode.

While that cardigan suggests he’s trying to look like the boy you can take home to meet your parents rather than a Super Bowl wild man.” Taylor and Travis are thought to be attending this weekend’s F1 Grand Prix in Miami, alongside the NFL tight end’s teammate Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany Mahomes.

The two aren’t thought to be attending this year’s Met Gala, held on Monday. It comes after Travis’ enthusiasm during an event in Vegas last weekend was too much for Taylor, a lip reader claimed.

Deaf TikTok star Jackie Gonzalez gave her take on just what Taylor had to say as Travis took to the stage at his teammate Patrick Mahomes’ The 15 and Mahomies Foundation Golf Classic gala on April 27.

The lip-reading expert regularly shares her insight into what is being said during celebrity conversations. A clip from the bash saw Travis on stage as he joked and sang out Viva Las Vegas while on the microphone. Taylor meanwhile was seen turning her head in the audience.

Travis famously previously belted out the 1964 Elvis Presley hit when his NFL team the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl earlier this year beating the San Francisco 49ers 25–22.

Jackie explained what she believes Taylor was saying about the ordeal as she turned to a friend at her table. Jackie claims the global superstar said “that again,” followed by “I can’t do it,” as she shakes her head side to side in jest before facing the stage again.
