Travis Kelce finally spoke out about his engagement to Taylor Swift with a brief four-word comment. The couple had secretly gotten engaged two weeks before making a grand announcement to fans through a massive social media post.
Shortly after their joint appearance on the New Heights podcast, Travis reportedly took Taylor out for dinner and then proposed in the backyard of his home in Lee Summit, Missouri, where he had set up a beautiful floral garden around a gazebo for the special moment.
Despite keeping a low profile, Travis shared the news with his brother Jason in a teaser clip for the upcoming podcast episode. Fans were thrilled about the engagement news, emphasizing the couple’s focus on the commitment of marriage rather than just the engagement and wedding.
The full podcast episode, set to be released later, is expected to reveal more details about the engagement. Travis and Taylor playfully announced their engagement on Instagram, calling themselves, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher getting married,” accompanied by a dynamite emoji.
Taylor also shared the news on her Instagram Story with a heart emoji, playing her song, “So High School,” believed to be about Travis, in the background. Travis was actively involved in designing the engagement ring, a unique Old Mine Brilliant Cut by designer Kindred Lubeck.
Travis’ father, Ed, enthusiastically discussed the engagement on the Jimmy & Nath Show with Emma, revealing how Travis orchestrated the romantic proposal with a team hiding in the bushes to ensure everything went smoothly. Ed mentioned that the couple kept the engagement under wraps for some time to not overshadow Taylor’s album release.
The engagement ring was reportedly in Travis’ possession as early as July, indicating his readiness to propose. Ed praised Travis for prioritizing the marriage and the relationship over the grandeur of the wedding ceremony, emphasizing the couple’s genuine commitment to each other.
