A body language expert has claimed that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s PDA at the US Open seemed like an attempt to ‘prove their passion to the world’ amid swirling rumors that their relationship is a PR stunt.
Speculation erupted that the popstar and the athlete, both 34, had faked their romance to boost their careers after an alleged ‘contract’ discussing a breakup plan circulated on the web last week.
Days after the document – which Travis’ reps have branded as ‘entirely false and fabricated’ – hit the internet, the couple seemed completely unfazed as they attended the US Open in New York City together and put on a very loved up display in front of the cameras.
Now, UK-based body language expert Judi James has analyzed their interactions exclusively to DailyMail.com, and she said the singer and NFL star looked like they were trying to portray ‘a very dreamy, idealistic version of being in love’ based on their poses.
‘When you’re trying to disprove “fauxmance” rumors, the most effective and convincing route is to laugh them off. Ignore them,’ she said.

‘They should be water off the proverbial duck’s back to a couple in love, but for a high-profile, A-list power couple whose relationship is a meeting of brands as well as minds and hearts it will be tempting to perform the gruesome and challenging “denial” ritual that involves proving to the world that your emotions have been not been forged in some PR’s office.
‘Taylor and Travis appear to have taken the “human emoji” route to proving their passion to the world by adopting a series of poses here that emphatically define a very dreamy, idealistic version of being in love.’
The two stars were seen cuddling and kissing throughout the sporting event and were also caught dancing together to the hit song I Believe in a Thing Called Love by The Darkness.
Judi added, however, that while they may have been packing on the PDA a little extra to shut down the rumors, it still seemed like their romantic embraces were genuine.
She pointed out that Taylor often ‘throws herself into everything’ and has ‘never’ been ‘shy’ in front of cameras when it comes to showing off her love with Travis.
‘If this were any one other than the ever-enthusiastic Taylor these might look like over-kill rituals,’ she continued.
‘But she and Travis have never fought shy of the cameras since they hooked up, or been understated in their PDAs which needs to be factored in when it comes to any accusations of a lack of authenticity.
‘Taylor is a woman who adorably throws herself into everything with total, cosplay-style commitment and effort.’

Judi insisted that Taylor’s body language at the US Open was one of a ‘swooning’ girlfriend.
‘Her body language shows her almost swooning with romantic love as she stands with Travis’ arm about her waist and her face to the crowds and cameras, placing her hand over his in an endorsement gesture while leaning her head back onto his chest with a dreamy smile,’ the expert dished.
‘She even raises one arm up to bare her armpit and under arm as she caresses his neck.
‘She pulls at his cardigan at one point to flirtatiously get his attention and she touches his face tenderly to plant a romantic kiss on his lips.
‘All this is done standing and in full view, as is her rousing singing that involves playfully slapping Travis on the chest to encourage him to join in.’
She also pointed out that even the popstar’s outfit – a red gingham dress, which she paired with a heart-shaped ring – suggests that she is ‘totally, girlishly smitten with her man.’
The document, which was first posted on Reddit, outlined a detailed plan to release an official statement regarding their breakup on September 28, and was written by what appeared to be the tight end’s PR company Full Scope.
After it spread online, a spokesman for Full Scope insisted that it was ‘entirely false and fabricated and was not created, issued or authorized by this agency.’
The representative also said they had called in lawyers to try to figure out who forged it – though they are not expected to find the culprit.

‘We have engaged our legal team to initiate proceedings against the individuals or entities responsible for the unlawful and injurious forgery of documents,’ they said.
A source told DailyMail.com afterwards that Taylor and Travis were unbothered by it, and in fact were planning something ‘super special’ on the date it listed as their ‘split.’

‘Taylor was unbothered and quite amused by this,’ said an insider. ‘She usually pays these things no mind at all, but this was some hilarious AI realness.
‘It isn’t even worth an actual reaction from her or her team. She and Travis had a good laugh over it and his camp only got lawyers involved because it is his PR firm listed on the document.
‘After learning that their “breakup date” is coming up so soon – September 28 – they now need to plan something super special and fun on that day to commemorate.
‘Coincidentally, September 28 is around the first NFL game of the season and is also National Beer Drinking Day – so that makes a good date night for sure.’
On top of the US Open date, Taylor and Travis were photographed on a series of romantic nights out recently.
They were spotted grabbing dinner together at a pizza joint in New York City on Friday, and attended model Karen Elson’s wedding one day later.
The Cruel Summer songstress also cheered her boyfriend on at the Kansas City Chiefs opening football game on September 5.
Afterwards, it was reported that she surprised Travis with $42,000 worth of high-end gifts to celebrate the start of the NFL season.
