It is a special week for Taylor Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce.

A year ago this week, on September 24, the world officially started watching their love story unfold, as the "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart" singer confirmed her then budding relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs star by attending one of his football games in his home stadium of Arrowhead.

Her internet-breaking appearance came some weeks after speculation first swirled that the two had privately connected, which itself came some weeks after the Grotesquerie actor publicly made a move by famously declaring that he had hoped to give her a friendship bracelet with his number on it when he attended one of her Eras Tour concerts.

Though the superstar hadn't shied away from letting the public in on some of her previous relationships, her subsequent appearances with Travis sparked more fanfare than ever, as they were a stark comparison from the six years she spent steadfastly keeping her relationship with Joe Alwyn, which ended in early 2023, away from the spotlight.

From some of their first dates to the viral Super Bowl photos that look straight from a romance movie, revisit some of Taylor and Travis' most heartwarming moments in the spotlight.
