Los Angeles, CA – Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were recently spotted enjoying a night out in Los Angeles.

The couple was photographed holding hands as they left Sushi Park on Friday evening, as captured by PEOPLE.

For the occasion, Swift, 34, wore a red and white jacket reminiscent of the Kansas City Chiefs, layered over a dark top and denim skirt.

Meanwhile, Kelce, also 34, sported a coordinating green knit long-sleeve shirt with matching shorts.

The rumors of Swift and Kelce dating first surfaced in September 2023, after the musician attended several of the athlete’s NFL games.

During an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show podcast that same month, Kelce disclosed that he had invited Swift to one of his games, initiating their connection after witnessing her performance at Arrowhead Stadium during her Eras Tour in July.

Their relationship was confirmed in October 2023 when they were photographed holding hands at a Saturday Night Live after-party in New York City.

Kelce has since been a supportive presence for the “Karma” singer, accompanying her on various stops of her global tour, including a recent visit to Singapore where she performed six shows at Kallang Stadium.

In a recent episode of his podcast, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, released on April 10, Kelce expressed his disbelief at how he ended up dating the pop superstar.

When asked about the attention surrounding their relationship, Kelce joked about Swift not being interested in sports, implying his surprise at their connection.

Their romance has garnered widespread admiration, with rapper Lil Dicky describing it as “the best thing ever,” noting the universal appeal of their love story akin to a high school fantasy come to life. He added that anyone who criticizes their relationship is simply envious.
