One step closer to the altar, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are finally engaged. The couple announced the happy news directly via a joint post on Instagram, Tuesday August 26, 2025, with a series of romantic proposal photos in a flower-filled garden.
"Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married," Taylor captioned the photo. The proposal felt personal because Travis personally designed his girlfriend's engagement ring.
Together with jewelry designer Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry, Travis chose a classic Old Mine brilliant cut diamond. According to some jewelry experts, the diamond's cut symbolizes eternity. In the photo, the ring can be seen sparkling on Taylor's finger, seemingly symbolizing a new journey in their love story.
One photo shows Travis kneeling while Taylor gently caresses his face. Several other shots show the couple embracing sweetly under an arch of pink and white flowers, like a scene from a modern romance.
The engagement news comes just weeks after Taylor made her debut on Travis's New Heights podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce. The episode broke the Guinness World Record for most concurrent YouTube podcast views, with 1.3 million views on August 13, 2025.
In the podcast, Taylor not only announced the upcoming release of her 12th album, 'The Life of a Showgirl,' but also opened up about her relationship with Travis. She revealed that she felt comfortable with Travis' approach to her from the start. "I knew he wasn't crazy the first few times we talked.
He really got to know me in a natural, pure, normal way," said the 'Style' singer. She also added that Travis had the ability to make her laugh with simple things. For Taylor, Travis was someone who brought positive energy. "She's like the enhance color button on your phone. Her presence makes everyone's life more colorful," he said.
Their romance began in July 2023, when Travis attended Taylor's Eras Tour concert at Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs. Shortly after, romance rumors began to spread when Taylor was seen cheering Travis on at a game in September 2023.
She was seen sitting in a suite with Travis' mother, Donna, and her cheer when Travis scored a touchdown went viral. Now, over a year after their first meeting, Taylor and Travis are entering a new chapter. From mere rumors in the stands, their relationship has blossomed into a real-life romance, sealed with a diamond ring.
