Body language expert reveals major 'red flags' in Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship after US Open date
A body language expert has revealed the major 'red flags' in Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship following their very public date at the US Open.
Their appearance comes after rumours of a planned split when a fake 'contract' circulated the web, which listed the date of their supposed 'breakup' as 28 September and listed 'strategy' for the press.
Since then, however, the 34-year-old 'Cruel Summer' singer was spotted with her NFL star beau putting on an extremely united front at the sporting event over the weekend (8 September).

After footage of the pair circulated online, fans have rushed to social media to 'work out' why Travis seemed so distracted on the day.
He was snapped with his phone at various moments throughout the game, often in landscape mode, prompting fans to think he was watching something different to a game of tennis.
And now, a body language expert has shared his verdict on Travis and Taylor's dynamic.
Speaking on behalf of Spin Genie, Darren Stanton told Tyla that energy levels from Travis have seemingly 'decreased' as his and Taylor's relationship has gone on.
"For these two, they started off quite full on, very tactile, very touchy feely," he explained. "Travis was going around the world to support her on her Era’s tour."
According to the expert, Travis' energy levels have appeared to 'drop' and the level of interpersonal attraction 'appears to have decreased in public'.
Darren continued: "The PDA from the pair was very full on for a while, holding hands and kissing in public, but this seems to have decreased as time has gone on. He’s only really trying when she’s looking."
Describing Taylor as a 'firework as usual', Darren added: "It’s only when she looks at him that he really engages.
"A lot of the signs that were initially present such as the prolonged eye contact and PDA, the tactile moments that were put out, are no longer appearing as strong or operating on the same level as before."
The body language expert also said that their relationship 'no longer feels authentic' in public as Taylor appears 'always on duty' with Travis.
Darren told Tyla: "Initially, when they were pictured walking anywhere, they were all over each other, he would have his arms round her from the back, hugging her really tightly.
"Their matching and mirroring of body language was much greater, and they would meet each other in the middle with their gestures, showing a strong connection."
He says there's been a 'decrease' in that as well as the prolonged eye contact, adding: "It no longer feels authentic, and feels as though Taylor is always on duty."
Earlier on in the relationship, Darren explained, there were moments where it would appear as though they’d been 'caught' glancing at each other and he might give her a quick kiss and vice versa.
"We’ve not seen that in recent weeks, so I believe he is becoming less interested with the 'Taylor Swift circus'," the expert continued.
"Even though he is used to the razzmatazz of American football, he’s never experienced anything like this."
Darren theorised that Travis may be 'overwhelmed' by the 'media frenzy circus' that follows their relationship and that he may have simply 'reached his point where it is too much'.
"I believe we will continue to see a gradual decrease in these gestures and signatures with their behaviour over the coming weeks," the body language expert resolved.
Obviously, all of this is simply speculation but, regardless, it's clearly sent fans into a right spiral.
Tyla has contacted Taylor and Travis' reps for comment.
