How Did Travis Kelce Propose to Taylor Swift?
While we don’t know the details behind the proposal, the two, who started dating in 2023, recently appeared on the football player’s podcast, New Heights, together and spoke about their relationship. During the episode, the “Fortnight” singer announced the upcoming release of her 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl. That same week, Kelce revealed more about his feelings for his partner in a profile published by GQ. “Whenever I’m with her, it feels like we’re just regular people. We’re just two people that are in love,” he told the outlet. “It happened very organically, even though from a media standpoint it was being tracked. Nothing I’ve ever done has been a controlled, organized process.”
Over the course of their two-year relationship, the two have supported each other at number of events. On September 24, 2023, the singer sat in the Kelce family’s suit to cheer on the tight end as the Chiefs faced off against the Chicago Bears. She continued to attend the athlete’s games over the course of the next two seasons—and even witnessed his team win Super Bowl LVIII. The Ohio native made sure to do the same for his partner. As Swift performed in stadiums around the world during her billion-dollar Eras Tour, her significant other was there to sing (and dance!) along.
