Global music icon Taylor Swift and American football star Travis Kelce have made their relationship official by announcing their engagement on August 26. The couple shared dreamy photos of the proposal on Instagram, instantly sending fans and the internet into a frenzy. The announcement has been widely described as the beginning of what could become the “Royal American Wedding,” given the massive popularity of both stars.
The romantic proposal took place in a rose-filled garden, where Kelce went down on one knee to present Swift with a dazzling Old Mine Brilliant Cut diamond ring designed by Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry. The photos captured the couple embracing, with a close-up of the elegant square-oval diamond sparkling on Swift’s hand. Adding her signature wit, Swift captioned the post: “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
Swift and Kelce’s love story began in 2023, after Kelce famously tried to give her a friendship bracelet with his phone number during her Eras Tour concert. Since then, the couple has been spotted together at NFL games, concerts, and red-carpet events, making them one of Hollywood’s most adored power couples. While the wedding date has not yet been revealed, fans worldwide are eagerly anticipating what promises to be one of the most talked-about celebrity weddings of the decade.
