However, fans were convinced the actress left 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs star Travis “uncomfortable” after she appeared to get a bit too touchy-feely while talking to him in the VIP area.
Julia was seen standing close to the sportsman and scratching his chest with her fingernails before rubbing his shoulder as Travis reached up to hold her arm, in a gesture many believed was him subtly trying to move her arms off his body.
Fans took to social media to share their thoughts after the footage went viral, with some not being overly impressed with the actress’s actions.
They commented: “JULIAAAAAA what are you doing???” and: “Whoa Julia…. She needs to calm down lol he is uncomfortable.”
Others added: “I still think it’s weird. It gives touchy aunt vibes,” another wrote: “Not cool. Hands off,” and: “Idk he seems a bit uncomfortable no? lol.”
Others stood up for the actor, noting that by lip-reading she appeared to tell Travis: “I’m so happy for you guys”.
They commented: “she’s the only one who can do that and not be worried it could ever be turned,” and: “Wow! To be so close to Julia Robert’s! He must be so flattered.”
Others wrote: “I was annoyed until i realized who it was, then i loved it”, and: “That’s the mom “you’re doing amazing. Keep supporting our girl” If I ever saw it. ”

Another added: “A little scratch and Mom love from Julia Robert’s – she is just as happy for Taylor as we are. And then – she got the crinkling eye.”
Julia, who has been married to cinematographer Danny Moder since 2002, was clearly overjoyed to be hanging out with Taylor’s beau, and is just as happy as the Swifties are that the relationship is going so well.

Travis has been a regular feature in the crowd at Taylor’s shows of late, and even got on stage to perform with her during her final show at London’s Wembley Stadium.
He had also flown in for the Dublin show straight from a teammate’s wedding in California the night before, and fans were left convinced he surprised her by being there as Taylor appeared to be stunned when she spotted him in the crowd.
