Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged, and their proposal is still making headlines. As per latest news, Kelce chose to ask Swift to marry him immediately after they finished filming the “New Heights” podcast. While the couple talked about their early days, baking, and teased new music, a hired team was transforming Kelce’s backyard into a garden setup for the proposal.
Travis Kelce’s romantic proposal to Taylor Swift came right after their podcast session
The timing for Travis Kelce’s proposal to Taylor Swift was deliberate, according to an exclusive report by Page Six. As per an insider, Kelce wanted Swift to “already be in hair and makeup” for the taping. He wanted Swift to be camera-ready without a wardrobe scramble. The same insider added, “He knew that he wanted to marry her. [The date] was just a matter of when the timing was right.” They continued, “It was less about the significance of the time and [more about] when he could actually do it, in between her tour and his season.”
Fans had already been exchanging clues online that the proposal followed the podcast. They noticed small details, like faint headphone marks on Swift’s hair. Travis’s father, Ed Kelce, previously shared that his son steered Swift into the backyard. Travis suggested they have a glass of wine before dinner, and a simple detour eventually set up the reveal.
When the moment came, Kelce presented an old‑mine brilliant‑cut ring he co‑designed with jeweler Kindred Lubeck. Page Six estimated the piece to be in the seven‑figure range. The couple kept the engagement private for a short while. They informed family first, before going public with a joint Instagram announcement on August 26.
Sources told the tabloid that the wedding won’t be rushed. According to them, the football season comes first, and when they do say “I do,” they will keep it “private” and “casual.” From their “New Heights” podcast taping to a backyard garden, Travis Kelce’s proposal strategy was simple. He kept the day normal, then flipped the script for Taylor Swift, and now the two seem happily engaged.
