Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement has taken the internet by storm, sparking a wave of celebration from fans and fellow celebrities alike. The couple shared their big news through an Instagram post featuring a dreamy, secret-garden-inspired photo set, complete with a stunning brilliant-cut diamond ring. According to Kelce’s father, the proposal happened quietly nearly two weeks ago at Kelce’s home in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. What began as a casual evening turned into a life-changing moment, with Kelce inviting Swift outside for a glass of wine before getting down on one knee.
Ed Kelce shared more about the moment, telling News 5 Cleveland that the newly engaged couple quickly started FaceTiming their families to spread the happy news. “They were about to head out for dinner, and he asked her before they left. It was beautiful,” he recalled. “To see them together is great.” The announcement quickly became a cultural moment, drawing attention across social media and news outlets worldwide.
The engagement also caught the attention of public figures, including former U.S. President Donald Trump. Known for being critical of Swift in the past, Trump offered surprisingly kind words during a Cabinet meeting. “I wish him a lot of luck,” he said when asked about the couple. “I think he’s a great guy and a great player. And I think she’s a terrific person. So I wish them a lot of luck.”
Travis’s brother, Jason Kelce, also celebrated the engagement during an episode of the New Heights podcast, which the two brothers co-host. Although Travis wasn’t present for the recording, Jason made sure to give the couple a shout-out. “This is the proposal heard ’round the world,” he said. “F*** yeah!” The excitement was palpable, reflecting just how significant the moment felt to the Kelce family and fans alike.
Other celebrity friends joined in the celebration. Pop star Sabrina Carpenter, who’s collaborating with Swift on the upcoming album The Life of a Showgirl, shared the couple’s announcement on her Instagram Story with several white heart emojis. Actors John Stamos and Josh Gad also chimed in, posting a playful Instagram reel from Disneyland where they lip-synced to a remix of Swift’s hit song “Love Story.” The caption read, “Where were you when you heard the news?” capturing the joy and excitement many felt upon hearing about Swift and Kelce’s next chapter together.
