Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announce their engagement

Los Angeles, US, (EFE) – Taylor Swift announced Tuesday her engagement to Football player Travis Kelce.

​”Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” Swift wrote on Instagram alongside photos of the couple.

​The images included one of the Kansas City Chiefs players kneeling in front of Swift in a garden, as well as a close-up of the engagement ring.

​Swift and Kelce have been together since 2023, after he attended one of The Eras Tour concerts and was “mesmerized” and “captivated” by the singer, as they told on August 13 on the New Heights podcast, which Kelce hosts with his brother Jason.

​Although Kelce wanted to meet her that same day to give her a friendship bracelet with his number on it, he couldn’t because Swift didn’t receive visitors before or after her concerts. Soon after, they established contact.

​Her engagement follows the recent announcement of her upcoming studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, to be released on Oct. 3 and inspired by her behind-the-scenes life during The Eras Tour. EFE
