It’s a love story and, baby, she said yes: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged, they announced Tuesday.
In a joint Instagram post featuring five photos, the superstar singer and the football player announced their engagement, marking a fairytale conclusion to a two-year romance that has captivated and fascinated millions globally, particularly the Swifties, who are the pop star’s large and dedicated fan base.
“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” the caption read, accompanied by an emoji of a dynamite stick.
Kelce was already a well-known football player when they met — a celebrated tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs and a Super Bowl victor — but Swift’s unparalleled fame propelled him into a whole new sphere. Their romance was chronicled in numerous images of Swift cheering at Chiefs games and fan-captured videos of Kelce enjoying himself at Swift’s Eras concert tour as it traveled internationally.
There were some who speculated, without any evidence, that the relationship was a mere façade for further fame or even conspiracy theories suggesting it was meant to sway the U.S. elections. Ultimately, those doubts were silenced by a joyful couple appearing genuinely in love — now with an engagement ring that rivals the size of Kelce’s three Super Bowl rings.
It’s unclear when and where the two got engaged. A representative for Swift did not immediately respond to The Associated Press’ request for comment.
