KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI Taylor Swift left no room for doubt on January 26 night that Travis Kelce is all hers, and ensured that the world knew it.

Moments after the Kansas City Chiefs clinched a nail-biting 32-29 win against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship game at Arrowhead Stadium, the 35-year-old pop icon rushed onto the field, embracing and kissing the football star in a bold display of affection.

Taylor Swift’s passionate celebration with Travis Kelce signals a relationship 'upgrade'

With the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl dreams now a reality, Taylor Swift celebrated their win like the proud girlfriend she is by kissing tight end Travis Kelce passionately in front of thousands of fans and cameras.

This, however, wasn’t just an ordinary congratulatory moment. Body language expert Judi James exclusively told Daily Mail that the Grammy winner's actions screamed possession and pride.

"There are several relationship and status upgrade signals from Taylor here as she appears keen or determined to get and maybe dominate Travis's undivided attention as they celebrate his win," James explained.

"Taylor engages in a powerful eye engage, even taking his face between her two hands to ensure she has his undivided attention, keeping them there to steer and hold his head as they preform a passionate kiss on the mouth," the body language expert continued.

Reportedly, for Swift, it seemed like the victory wasn’t just about celebrating the win—it was also about celebrating their partnership.

James noted that Swift "behaved like an over-excited fan, bouncing at his side and again holding him to gain his attention as she shows him her levels of excitement and joy at his win."

"This is a much more shared, colluded, collaborative body language performance from Taylor, who looks much keener to share the moment with Travis as a confirmed couple than she had the year before, when she modestly melted back into the crowd around him after offering her congratulations," she added.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s PDA-filled celebration was a ‘shared victory'

Adding to the PDA-packed spectacle, Taylor Swift placed her hand on Kelce's chest, which is a clear "he's all mine" gesture, according to James.

Kelce, however, seemed intent on sharing the love. "His facial expression isn't mirroring Taylor's open-mouthed smiles of delight and excitement although his kiss with her does seem to register shared passion and his kisses on her head look sweet," James noted.

"He quickly turns to his mother after kissing Taylor though, as though keen to share signals of love and affection out as evenly as possible," she added.

Kelce, clearly elated by the win, shouted, "Never satisfied, baby!" before breaking into a line from 'Get Down Tonight' by KC and The Sunshine Band.
