Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his wife, superstar singer Taylor Swift, were seen in public for the first time since last week’s wedding.

Sort of.

The newlyweds were at former Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster’s wedding Friday to fitness expert Laura Kruk in Laguna Beach, California.

It wasn’t a public affair, but videos and photos quickly were shared on social media, and in one, we saw Kelce’s sweet gesture for his bride. Kelce held a parasol to provide some shade for Swift.

Fans were quite excited by some of the details they spotted at the ceremony. Here are some more photos and videos that were shared.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, also were at the ceremony. The wedding gave Brittany Mahomes, the co-owner of KC Current soccer team, and Swift a chance to catch-up.

While walking to what appears to be the wedding reception, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes were strolling just in front of Kelce and Swift.
