Travis Kelce is being protective of certain matters of his heart — new love Taylor Swift, specifically.

During the pair’s PDA-filled outing at the “Saturday Night Live” afterparty in New York over the weekend, the Chiefs tight end was “protective” of Swift, according to Entertainment Tonight, with a source recalling that Kelce “told her security guard that he could step aside, like he’d take it from here” at one point in time.

Upon arriving at the Catch Steak bash, Kelce, 34, was photographed helping Swift, 33, out of their vehicle before holding hands.

The duo was affectionate with one another throughout the night, according to the report, “whispering into each other’s ear” and “even exchange[ing] some kisses.”

“Travis and Taylor seemed to really be enjoying the night, and each other,” a source told Page Six.

Prior to the party, Swift and Kelce dined at Nobu before making surprise appearances on the Season 49 premiere of “SNL.”

Kelce poked fun at the NFL’s obsession with his love life, while Swift introduced musical guest Ice Spice.

The pair capped off their weekend together with dinner on Sunday at the Waverly Inn.

Swift originally traveled to Kansas City for Kelce’s Chiefs game against the Broncos on Thursday.

The “Cruel Summer” singer sat in an Arrowhead Stadium suite with Kelce’s mom, Donna, and Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Swift has become one with Chiefs Kingdom following her internet-shattering appearance at Arrowhead back in September — when rumblings of a Kelce romance first emerged.

In the days following that appearance from Swift, Kelce said on his “New Heights” podcast that he would be keeping certain aspects of his personal life private moving forward.

“What’s real is that you know, it is my personal life, I want to respect both of our lives,” Kelce said. “She’s not in the media as much as I am doing this show every single week and having fun during the NFL season on other guys’ shows, like the McAfee show and any other show I go on from here on out, like you said on that Thursday night game, I’m enjoying life and I sure as hell enjoyed this weekend.

“So everything moving forward, I think me talking about sports and saying alright now will have to be kind of where I keep it.”
