While at training camp, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce shared never-before-seen photos on Instagram with his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.

After nearly two years of dating, this marked the first time the 35-year-old All-Pro posted photos with Swift on social media. The 13-photo album immediately went viral, racking up over 3.5 million likes. He captioned the post, “Had some adventures this offseason, kept it 💯.”

Austin Swift, 33, the 14-time Grammy winner’s younger brother, joined the Chiefs star and his brother, Jason Kelce, on a fishing trip. Other close friends and family featured in the album include the tight end’s parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, Ross Travis, Ashley Avignone, Este Haim, Reggie King, Sarah Blackburn King, and more.

Several pictures stemmed from Kelce and the pop star’s couples trip with Fox Sports analysts Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson, and their respective partners, Jarret Stoll and Steve Cundari. Andrews commented, ” ❤️🏒🍞.”

Back in March, DeuxMoi reported Swift and Kelce were spotted at the exclusive Yellowstone Club in Big Sky, Montana. The outlet noted they were seen dining with Andrews, however, no photos emerged from the trip.

Ever since Kelce posted the news photos on July 24, fans couldn’t wait for the new episode of “Calm Down,” a podcast hosted by Andrews and Thompson. During their fan question section, both women shared details from their epic vacation with the famous couple.

Erin Andrews And Charissa Thompson Both Gushed Over Their ‘Dream’ Trip With Taylor Swift

“She’s everything that I’d ever hoped and dreamed and could’ve been and more,” Thompson said, noting that she and Andrews were huge fans of Swift long before she started dating Kelce. “We were elated to have time with them, but just in general, to see what she’s all about.”

The “Thursday Night Football” host didn’t share any details about their trip prior to Kelce’s post because “their lives are so public,” Thompson explained. “It was very important for Erin and I not to say anything… It’s important for us to let them dictate the narrative on what they do in the personal lives… I’m not going to elaborate too much on it but she’s a dream. I adore her and I’m so happy them make each other happy.”

Andrews agreed. “We’re so protective of them and their privacy and what they deserve,” the WEAR by AE creator said. “That’s why we never said anything or planned on saying anything.” As for Swift, “She’s a 20 out of 20,” Andrews gushed. “She’s so much fun. Our group — the six of us, [we had] a time.”

While Swift and Travis appeared to have an idyllic offseason together, traveling to Park City, Nashville, Miami, New York City, and more, they also dealt with a serious health scare.

A rep for Swift told TMZ last week that the singer’s father, Scott Swift, 73, underwent quintuple bypass surgery “over a month ago.” Swift, along with Austin, and her mom, Andrea Swift, 67, remained by his side throughout the procedure. Scott is now “feeling great,” the rep noted.

During this stressful time, Travis “went into total caregiver mode,” a source told the Daily Mail, “making sure” Swift ate by ordering her meals. “This was their first crisis together, and Travis was doing everything right,” the source added. “If Taylor wasn’t ready to marry him before, she sure is now. They were in love before, but now it seems unbreakable.”
