Travis Kelce's behavior around other women than Taylor Swift goes viral

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce continued to win over Taylor Swift fans after an image of his respectful hand placement while taking photos with women following a celebrity golf tournament went viral.

After an eventful American Century Championship—where Kelce accidentally pelted a man with a golf ball but quickly made amends—the spotlight shifted to his interactions at the Edgewood Tahoe Resort in Nevada. One particular photo captured attention: Kelce posing with Karrina Ferris, the adult Miss Nevada competition winner and the teen winner.

Dressed in his full golfing attire, including a purple Nike dri-fit polo and an NBC Sports hat, Kelce stood between the two sash-wearing winners. His hands hovered around them, barely making contact, a gesture Swifties praised as a sign of his respect and loyalty to Taylor.

Kelce's left hand hovered near the teen winner's shoulder while his right hand rested on his golf club, and they all smiled for the camera. The Miss America Instagram account later highlighted that their appearance at the tournament supported medical research, with 40 percent of the proceeds going to the cause.

Fans were quick to comment on Kelce's respectful pose. "I love the way he makes sure he doesn't touch any of the girls he takes pictures with," one fan wrote. Another added, "I would tell my husband to do the same if he was ever in this position [He's very much not a celeb though]."

Although Swifties saw Kelce's actions as a sign of loyalty to Taylor, others pointed out the practical aspect. Considering the teen winner's status, avoiding physical contact was a no-brainer. "He just doesn't want to catch a case; it has nothing to do with loyalty. Many famous men do the hover hand," another fan noted.

Despite finishing in 63rd place at the tournament, Kelce's respectful demeanor on the course earned him high marks from fans and followers alike. This also wasn't the first time Kelce was seen posing respectfully with women in a relationship. He was also spotted in the crowd at Swift's Eras Tour in Australia , watching with singer Rita Ora .

When they took a photo together, Kelce's hand hovered over Ora similarly, with one hand gently resting near her shoulder and the other holding a wooden railing. Ora's arm was fixed behind Kelce's back as the celebrity duo smiled during the festivities.

Kelce's globe-trotting support for his chart-topping girlfriend has taken him to the far corners of the world, from Australia to France, Singapore to Argentina, and beyond. The three-time Super Bowl champion saw Swift utilize him during the shows, weaving numerous references to him into her live set. Her latest album also features several tracks seemingly inspired by him.
