Julia Roberts got friendly with Taylor Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, in the VIP tent at the pop star’s Eras Tour show in Dublin on Sunday.
In a fan’s TikTok video, Roberts, 56, put her hands on the 34-year-old athlete’s chest and appeared to tickle and rub him as they chatted.

It appeared that she told him, “I’m so happy for you guys,” seemingly in reference to Kelce and Swift’s relationship.
Kelce laughed and put his hands on Roberts’ arms.
Fans reacted to the cozy moment on social media and called out Roberts — who has been married to Danny Moder since 2002 — for getting “handsy” with Swift’s boyfriend.

“Not Julia scratching him like a kitty kat,” one fan wrote on TikTok.
“The way he is kindly trying to pull away,” a different person said.
A third fan tweeted, “I feel bad for Travis :/ clearly he’s uncomfortable.”

Roberts, a self-proclaimed “Swiftie,” went to the Eras Tour last year with her three children.
She appeared on Jimmy Fallon’s talk show months later and talked about her love for Swift’s song “Betty” from the album “Folklore.”
“I love ‘Betty’ and my mother’s name was Betty, so I particularly love ‘Betty,’ ” said Roberts.

The “Pretty Woman” star also looked back on the time she ended up onstage with Joan Baez at one of Swift’s concerts on her “1989” tour in 2015.
“I took my kids, this was our first big concert, and Taylor had said before the show, ‘There’s a part in the show where — Would you like to come onstage?’ I was like, ‘Oh, I don’t know.’ I get very nervous,” Roberts recalled, adding that her kids eventually convinced her to get on the stage.
She said that the experience “was pretty surreal.”

Roberts was one of several celebs who had VIP privileges at Swift’s concert in Dublin Sunday. The others included Kelce, Stevie Nicks and “Bridgerton” actress Florence Hunt.
Kelce made it to Ireland after attending his Kansas City Chiefs teammate Clyde Edwards-Helaire’s wedding in California.
Swift appeared to be surprised by Kelce’s arrival at the concert, as indicative by her spontaneous grin when she was singing “August.”
The couple were seen leaving Aviva Stadium together after the show was over.

Swift and Kelce started dating last fall at the beginning of the 2023-2024 NFL season.
The “Hits Different” singer went to 13 Chiefs games including the Super Bowl in February.
In return, Kelce has been supporting Swift on her record-breaking Eras Tour that started last year and ends in December.

Kelce recently opened up about their romance on the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast.
“She’s very self-aware. And I think that’s why I really started to really fall for her, was how genuine she is around friends [and] family,” he said. “It can get crazy for somebody with that much attention . . . and she just keeps it so chill and so cool.”
“I can admire it for sure,” Kelce added.
