Did you know that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are getting married? Taylor Swift, 35, a global pop music superstar and Travis Kelce, 35, a three-time Super Bowl champion tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs recently got engaged. It is the first public engagement for both individuals. Kelce popped the question with a custom-designed, old-mine, brilliant cut, diamond ring from Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry. Fans of the couple found out through their joint Instagram post which included photos with a romantic garden backdrop. The announcement caption read, "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
The post quickly broke Instagram records, accumulating over 30 million likes in 24 hours. Kelce proposed to Swift in the backyard of his $6 million mansion located in Leawood, Kansas. He had the space transformed into a romantic garden for the occasion. The setting featured a lush display of thousands of pink and white flowers, vines, and an arched trellis, framing the couple beautifully in the engagement photos. This private and secluded estate was purchased by Kelce in 2023, reportedly for increased privacy after his relationship with Swift became public. The chosen location holds sentimental value for fans who noted its resemblance to the aesthetic of Swift's 2019 album, Lover.
Kelce proposed to Swift in early August. They announced their engagement on August 26, 2025. The announcement came about 13 days after Swift's appearance on Kelce's "New Heights" podcast episode. The couple began publicly dating in the fall of 2023.
Kelce and Swift's relationship evolved after Kelce publicly expressed interest in meeting Swift following her Eras Tour concert in July 2023, where he planned to give her a friendship bracelet with his number on it. They began dating, and Swift attended several of his games, while Kelce also attended her concerts. They reportedly went Instagram official in July 2025. Kelce has expressed his love for Swift and shared on his podcast how fun it has been to tell everyone he's spending the rest of his life with her. The couple is reportedly in no rush to plan the wedding and is currently enjoying their engagement.
