Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Subtle Matching Moment at Her Eras Tour Wrap Party Has Swifties Confused

Taylor Swift closed out her record-breaking Eras Tour with a bang — thanks to a surprise wrap party planned by her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce. But while the party itself was worthy of the celebration, one small detail stole the spotlight online. Both Swift and Kelce were seen wearing matching pinky rings, and naturally, the internet, namely Swifties, started to think that the jewelry is more than just a cute way for the couple to match. 

Photos shared on social media showed Swift’s pinky ring glimmering in multiple shots. Though Kelce’s hands were mostly hidden, fans with laser-sharp vision noticed a ring on his right pinky finger too. Fueling the intrigue, Kelce’s friend Ross Travis was also spotted rocking a pinky ring at the party. “Taylor, Travis and his bf Ross, all wearing pinky rings at the eras-themed work party on 9th December aww,” one fan pointed out.

For those in the know, pinky rings carry historical weight. Particularly during the mid-20th century, they were often a discreet way for individuals in the queer community to signal their identity. This history sparked fresh chatter around the long-held “Gaylor” fan theory — rumors that Swift is potentially a closeted queer woman.

These theories have gained traction over years by a faction of Swifties in the “Gaylor” community, of dissecting her lyrics, symbols, and even moments like this. “I like shiny things, but I’d marry you with pinky rings,” one fan joked on X, riffing on Swift’s song “Paper Rings.” Another mused, “And if I told you these were PINKY PROMISE rings!?!?!?”

Speculation aside, insiders confirmed Kelce’s devotion to making the night special. “Travis wanted to throw Taylor a surprise party because she deserved a huge celebration,” a source revealed to Page Six, describing him as “so proud of her.”

Whether the pinky rings are a meaningful nod or simply chic accessories, they’ve reignited fan fascination. But for many, the takeaway is simple — whatever the story behind the rings or Swift’s personal life, it’s hers to share when and if she chooses.
