Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift‘s romance continues to dominate headlines, with every public appearance fueling fresh speculation about their future. A recent outing in Manhattan over the weekend has drawn attention for more than just their fashion choices.
According to UK-based body language expert Judi James, the Kansas City Chiefs star appeared anxious, prompting questions about whether he is feeling the pressure to propose.
The couple showcased their distinct styles during the date. Kelce opted for a bold red denim ensemble, while Swift dazzled in a black minidress paired with a coat adorned with silver embellishments. Despite their coordinated confidence, James noted a stark contrast in Kelce’s demeanor compared to Swift’s apparent ease.
Signs of unease
While holding hands with Swift in an interlocked grip that suggested closeness, Kelce displayed subtle gestures that hinted at discomfort.
“His free hand seems to touch his stomach and move about in a way that suggests he feels under pressure,” James explained.
Additionally, Kelce‘s teeth appeared clenched, and he occasionally bowed his head-behavior uncharacteristic of the typically attention-loving athlete.
“Taylor looks confident and sociable here, but Travis seems to be in a contradictory state,” James observed.
These signs, according to the expert, could indicate pre-proposal nerves or hesitation under external pressure.
“If he is on the brink of proposing, these symptoms would fit, but they could also occur from a man avoiding commitment while under pressure to propose,” James added.
“He seems to be hopping around Taylor again, using touching and steering rituals to suggest he wants to treat her like a princess.”

Engagement speculation reignited
Rumors of an impending engagement have dogged the couple since the beginning of their relationship in summer 2023. Most recently, fans scrutinized photos from Swift’s 35th birthday party, suggesting that her left ring finger appeared intentionally blurred-fueling theories of a secret proposal.
Although Kelce and Swift have publicly dismissed these rumors in the past, insiders suggest that the constant speculation weighs on Kelce, especially with his family playfully pressuring him.
“His family jokes with him about a wedding and pits him up against his brother, whose wife is already popping out more babies,” a source revealed. While these interactions are lighthearted, they add to Kelce’s feelings of being “overwhelmed,” compounded by relentless public and media scrutiny.
