Pop megastar Taylor Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce are officially engaged after nearly two years of dating, announced via Instagram with the playful caption, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.” The proposal followed prolonged fan speculation, buzzy hints, and private moments, now confirmed after months of anticipation from loved ones and the public alike.
Indeed, being linked with Taylor Swift is enough to break the internet. For many Swifties, Travis Kelce was a relative unknown before the pair were seen together publicly, when Swift attended a game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City in September 2023. However, in the sporting world, Kelce is already a star in his own right. A fixture of the Kansas City Chiefs since 2013, Kelce has that athletic, all-American charm, but a colorful past as well.
Swift and Kelce's romance has often taken center stage through the Chiefs' 2023-2024 season. Swift's attendance at the games has caused a stir as the couple became more and more open with their displays of affection. On February, the Kansas City Chiefs went head-to-head with the San Francisco 49ers in a nail-biting battle for the Super Bowl title. The Chiefs celebrated a spectacular victory for the second year in a row, and of course, Taylor Swift lept into Kelce's arms as the post-match revelry broke out on the field. They tearfully kissed and embraced, surrounded by cameras and the chaos of the celebrations.
