Taylor Swift<\/b><\/a> and <\/span>Travis Kelce<\/b><\/a> were way more rattled than they let on by scandalous claims they\u2019re faking it \u2013 and an insider exclusively tells Life & Style<\/em> that a whole new strategy is being drawn up to prove the doubters wrong and approach things in a whole new light.<\/p>\n \u201cTaylor\u2019s really making a conscious effort to go with the flow a lot more now and let her hair down,\u201d the source tells Life & Style. \u201cWhen they first got together, she was a lot more focused on the timing of everything, when they\u2019d have their first public date, their first public kiss, what their PR messaging would be. That\u2019s her style, she micromanages her image and always has.\u201d<\/p>\n However, it seems that Taylor, 34, has changed her approach to the public perception<\/a> of her romance with Travis, 34. \u201cBut at this point, she just wants to take the shackles off and let people judge them based on what comes naturally,\u201d the insider continues. \u201cYou can see the change just based on what she wore to the game.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIn the past she felt like she had to dress like the perfect NFL girlfriend and to her that meant head to toe team gear. This time she wore what she felt sexy in, she didn\u2019t wear fan merch or team colors,\u201d the source points out, referencing her all-denim look at the Kansas City Chiefs season opener<\/a> on September 5.<\/p>\n While Taylor and Travis \u201cused to hide out at home a lot because Taylor was afraid they might make a public misstep and get torn to shreds,\u201d the insider says \u201cshe\u2019s determined to stop overthinking things.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s why they just popped up at a pizza place in New York [earlier in September], Travis wanted pizza and he wanted to hang with normal people like he always used to,\u201d the source says about their outing to Lucali in Brooklyn on September 6. \u201cAnd it turned out to be a great night, everyone was respectful and after the initial excitement they just blended in with the crowd and had a great time.\u201d<\/p>\n The insider promises that fans are \u201cgoing to see more of that as time goes on<\/a>, with the two of them doing a lot more spontaneous things.\u201d However, it should be noted that Taylor and Travis are putting themselves out there \u201cbecause they want to, rather than it all having to be prearranged and micromanaged.\u201d<\/p>\n While the couple \u2013 who confirmed their relationship in September 2023 \u2013 aren\u2019t afraid to pack on the PDA in public, an additional source previously told Life & Style<\/em> that they are determined to keep certain aspects of their relationship<\/a> private.<\/p>\n \u201cTaylor and Travis are pretty open when they\u2019re in public,\u201d the insider told Life & Style<\/em> on September 18. \u201cBut as for the actual nature of their relationship? They decided early on they wanted to keep certain things just for themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite seeming madly in love, the source added that the couple has their fair share of problems. \u201cThey have major chemistry, but they have disagreements, too. They can be very silly and goofy with each other, and they can be very serious. And they\u2019re under a lot of scrutiny every time they step out,\u201d the insider shared. \u201cBut they always make each other a priority because this is it for them. They\u2019re each other\u2019s real-life happy ending \u2014 not a PR stunt.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
