Taylor Swift announces engagement to NFL star Travis Kelce

The announcement was made on Swift’s Instagram account.

US POP STAR Taylor Swift and NFL player Travis Kelce are engaged to be married. 

The pair posted a collection of photos showing the moment Kelce popped the question on Instagram this evening. 

The two are seen embracing in a lush garden setting with the accompanying caption: “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”

The size of Swift’s engagement ring has already become a talking point. 

The couple – both aged 35 – first went public with their relationship in 2023 and have often been seen together at her hugely popular concerts and at his NFL games playing for the Kansas City Chiefs.

Last year Swift closed her acclaimed $2 billion Eras tour that shattered records and made her the world’s biggest music star as she performed 149 three-hour shows around the globe.

Tickets sold for exorbitant prices and drew in millions of fans, along with many more who didn’t get in and were willing to sing along outside venues.

Swifties – as her fans are known – are currently waiting for her next album “The Life of a Showgirl,” to be released on 3 October.

News of that release came this month in an episode of Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast, which he hosts with his brother Jason, a former NFL player.
