Taylor Swift surrounded herself with loved ones while filming her “Patient Zero” video, including husband Travis Kelce.
In a behind-the-scenes Spotify reel from the track’s Los Angeles shoot shared by Swift, 36, on Tuesday, October 13, Kelce, 37, was captured standing behind his wife as she worked on the video alongside one of its stars Dakota Johnson.
While Swift sat in a director’s chair, the NFL star held onto Swift’s arms and rubbed her shoulders as he flashed a wide smile. The pop star, who filmed the video in a $47 million Beverly Hills mansion in March, per People, was seen resting her head into Kelce’s chest in a cozy display of affection between takes.
Swift and Kelce’s wardrobes also complemented one another’s, with the singer sporting a cream knit and the athlete rocking a similar-hued collared skitted shirt of his own with an Elwood baseball cap.
The reel’s release comes just days after the couple, who got married inside New York City’s Madison Square Garden on July 3, stepped out holding hands while enjoying a date night in the city. In footage published by Page Six, the pair were seen leaving the Jane Hotel and entering a waiting vehicle.
For their night out, Kelce opted for another collared short-sleeved shirt while Swift paired form-fitting pants with a cropped brown top.
Last month, Swift opened up about what inspired her to write “Patient Zero,” which she announced as a new single on an extended version of 2025’s The Life of a Showgirl, on September 22.
Erin Andrews is cheering on her husband, Jarret Stoll, after he made a cameo in Taylor Swift’s latest project. After Swift, 36, premiered the music video for her new single “Patient Zero” at the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, September 27, Andrews, 48, celebrated her husband’s brief appearance in the […]
She said three days after her announcement during a Capital FM radio interview in the U.K, “The story behind me writing the song ‘Patient Zero’ is that I was hanging out with a bunch of friends, and one of my friends told us that she had been reached out to by the new girlfriend of an ex of hers, asking for guidance on if she had had the same experiences with this guy.”
Swift added at the time that “everyone” in the group “immediately started saying, like, ‘Oh, I’ve been through that too,’ and telling the stories of when this kind of reach out had happened for them.”
She concluded, “I thought to myself, ‘If this has happened to all of us, it’s such an interesting kind of angle on humanity and on relationships, and I wonder if I could write something from the perspective of getting this phone call, and really only from the perspective and the side of the phone call of the ex who’s been through it before.”
Joining Johnson, 37, in the video, are other famous friends including Colin Farrell, Cara Delevingne and Matthew Stafford.
Swift spoke in detail about the song via Instagram on September 28, too, noting that she was grateful to its collaborators for their efforts. “I want to thank @dakotajohnson and Colin for trusting me with their time, taste, and talent (Giggling with your friend because you’re twinning for an entire shoot was a new and truly delightful experience),” she wrote at the time. “And Colin’s turn as a villain is even more impressive when you get to be around him. He’s an absolute light and as kind as they come. @caradelevingne, thank you for agreeing to play the lusty other woman. That’s what friends are for?”
