Taylor Swift Accused of Looking Like ‘She’s on Duty’ and Not in an ‘Authentic Relationship’ With Travis Kelce Anymore

After a “breakup contract” surfaced online detailing a pre-planned split between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift , eyebrows were raised as some began to question if the relationship fans have been watching blossom over the last year is legit or for PR.

Here’s what a body language expert has noticed about the pair recently that has him believing the latter. Plus, how representatives for the Kansas City Chiefs tight end have since responded to the supposed “contract.”

Expert says the relationship doesn’t look ‘authentic,’ their ‘energy levels’ dropped

Darren Stanton is a body language and behavioral expert with a degree in psychology. He previously worked as a police officer and used his expertise to uncover the truth when interviewing hundreds of suspects. He later moved into media and TV as a consultant and has been dubbed the “Human Lie Detector.” Now, Stanton is giving his take on what he says seems different and “inauthentic” lately about the world’s most famous couple.

Speaking on behalf of Spin Genie , Stanton explained: “For these two, they started off quite full on, very tactile, very touchy-feely. Travis was going around the world to support [Taylor] on her Era’s tour. As the weeks have gone on, I’ve seen his energy levels appear to drop, and the level of interpersonal attraction appears to have decreased in public. The PDA from the pair was very full on for a while, holding hands and kissing in public, but this seems to have decreased as time has gone on. He’s only really trying when she’s looking.

“She’s like a firework as usual, but it’s only when she looks at him that he really engages. A lot of the signs that were initially present such as the prolonged eye contact and PDA, the tactile moments that were put out, are no longer appearing as strong or operating on the same level as before.”

The expert continued: “Initially, when they were pictured walking anywhere, they were all over each other, he would have his arms round her from the back, hugging her really tightly. Their matching and mirroring of body language was much greater, and they would meet each other in the middle with their gestures, showing a strong connection. There’s a decrease in that as well, along with the prolonged eye contact. It no longer feels authentic and feels as though Taylor is always on duty.

“Earlier on in the relationship, there were moments where it would appear as though they’d been ‘caught’ glancing at each other and he might give her a quick kiss and vice versa. We’ve not seen that in recent weeks, so I believe he is becoming less interested with the ‘Taylor Swift circus.’ Even though he is used to the razzmatazz of American football, he’s never experienced anything like this. It is a complete media frenzy circus when they go anywhere together, so it’s possible he is just overwhelmed with it, and he’s reached his point where it is too much. I believe we will continue to see a gradual decrease in these gestures and signatures with their behavior over the coming weeks.”

Kelce reps addressed his ‘breakup contract’ with Swift

Before Travis Kelce, Another Football Player Tried to Get a Date With Taylor Swift

In early September, documents about a media plan for the couple in the event they split up surfaced online. The paperwork included a logo for Full Scope, the public relations company that represents Kelce. But when news about Swift and her beau’s supposed breakup plan was shared online, the NFL star’s reps denied that any such “breakup contract” was ever arranged, calling the documents “false and fabricated.”

A spokesperson for Full Scope said in a statement obtained by TODAY.com : “These documents are entirely false and fabricated and were not created, issued, or authorized by this agency. We have engaged our legal team to initiate proceedings against the individuals or entities responsible for the unlawful and injurious forgery of documents.”
