Ed Kelce Spills Secrets on Travis and Taylor's Engaged Life!
SCOOP ALERT!
Taylor Swift's whirlwind romance with NFL superstar Travis Kelce has reached new heights as the couple is officially engaged! The 35-year-old pop icon and her sports-loving beau have been dating for two years, but it looks like they're finally ready to take their relationship to the next level. And let us tell you, their engagement story is EVERYTHING.
In an exclusive interview with Channel Nine's The Today Show, Travis' dad Ed Kelce spilled all the tea on their proposal. According to Ed, Taylor and Travis have been "several weeks" of convincing each other to tie the knot, but it was ultimately Ed who pushed them into making it official. "They wanted to make it special," Ed said with a smile. "And let's be real, they're just so good together!"
The proposal happened in a romantic rose garden setting, where Travis got down on one knee and popped the question. But here's the best part: Taylor's mom Scott Swift was involved in planning the proposal too! It sounds like this family is all about supporting each other's love lives.
But don't just take Ed's word for it – Taylor herself shared the news on her Instagram, with a romantic photoshoot that left fans swooning. The post showed Taylor wearing a stunning striped silk-blend dress by Ralph Lauren (price tag: $400!), and accessorized with a gorgeous gold Santos Demoiselle Watch by Cartier. And let's not forget about that jaw-dropping diamond engagement ring! Estimated to be worth between $675,000 to $1 million, the Old Mine Brilliant Cut is truly a masterpiece.
The caption on Taylor's post was equally as sweet: "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married." We're guessing that's a nod to their adorable meet-cute at a Kansas City Chiefs game in 2023? The couple went public with their relationship when Taylor attended the game with Travis' mom, Donna. Since then, they've been inseparable – supporting each other at games and concerts, and even traveling together on Taylor's Eras tour.
Taylor's fans are naturally going wild over the engagement news, and we can't blame them! Her long-time pals Gigi Hadid, Karlie Kloss, and Cara Delevingne have already congratulated the couple with likes and comments on her post. And in a sweet gesture of solidarity, Taylor's ex-boyfriend Patrick Mahomes shared her post on Instagram with three heart emojis.
But let's not forget about Travis' love life before Taylor! According to reports, he dated sports broadcaster Kayla Nicole from 2017 to May 2022 – which is some serious commitment. Meanwhile, Taylor has been busy healing from her six-year romance with actor Joe Alwyn, who she parted ways with in April 2023. She's also had a brief fling with The 1975 frontman Matty Healy, and dated other notable celebrities like Harry Styles, Tom Hiddleston, Calvin Harris, Joe Jonas, Taylor Lautner, Jake Gyllenhaal, John Mayer, and Conor Kennedy.
As for when they'll be tying the knot? Well, according to Ed Kelce, the couple is still deciding on a date – but we're guessing it won't be long before they make their love official. Stay tuned, folks!
