Taylor Swift was pictured hand-in-hand with Travis Kelce on Sunday after confirming their romance.
The pair were spotted in high spirits as they left The Waverly Inn in New York City, their second outing over the weekend.
At one point, the NFL star, 34, was seen tenderly placing a hand on Swift’s back as they got into their waiting car.
Earlier in the day, the American football player was spotted leaving the 33-year-old’s Tribeca apartment after a surprise appearance on SNL.
Swift appeared briefly to introduce a performance by rapper Ice Spice while Kansas City Chiefs player Kelce featured at the end of a skit which poked fun at their rumoured romance.
The Anti-Hero singer has been seen in the stands supporting the Chiefs on a number of recent occasions, sparking rumours of a relationship.
SNL host for the night Pete Davidson dressed in Swift merchandise and a pink cowboy hat as he pretended to commentate an NFL game between the Jets and Eagles.
He joked he was “devastated” the singer was nowhere to be seen after reading she would be at the game in support of Kelce’s brother Jason, who plays for the Eagles.
At the end of the scene, comedian Kenan Thompson said he was “done” with the Swift fangirling and would next bring on “someone who actually wants to talk football”, before the scene cut to Kelce saying “yes, please”.
Earlier this month, it was reported that Swift has received the “stamp of approval” from Kelce’s mother.
The pair have reportedly been dating for a few months, and have recently stepped up their public displays of affection, with Swift attending several of the NFL star’s matches.
Swift has also been spotted cheering on her new beau while sat next to his mother, Donna, in the crowd and according to DailyMail.com, they already have a “genuine affection for each other”.
It comes as Swift’s Eras Tour film achieved the highest ticket sales at the UK and Ireland box office this weekend after it opened on Friday, according to Vue International.

The US superstar’s concert movie was recorded during the US leg of her Eras Tour, which features songs spanning her career.
Founder and chief executive of Vue International Tim Richards said: “Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour was number one at the UK and Ireland box office this weekend by a considerable distance, having already smashed the previous Event Cinema pre-sales record and tracking to achieve the highest ever box office takings for an event cinema release in the UK and Ireland.
“We saw an incredible response from Swifties across the UK and Ireland who dressed up, sang along and danced away with fellow fans, with sell out sessions despite scheduling an unprecedented number of shows so no-one missed out.”
Swift previously broke Vue International’s record for the most tickets sold during the UK pre-sale opening week for a music event when they went on sale last month.
The title was previously held by BTS’ Permission To Dance film, which was released last year.
