From friendship bracelets to a Super Bowl stage and now an engagement ring, Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce and popstar Taylor Swift have officially turned their “Love Story” into a forever play.
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce finally knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring to pop superstar Taylor Swift, turning their love story into forever.
After two years of dating, Kelce called the play of his life with a fairytale garden proposal — and Swift said yes.
But before they begin again and dive into wedding planning, here’s how their relationship played out, play by play, song by song.
Alexa, play “The Story of Us.” 🎶
So High School | July 2023
Remember when you had a crush, but you couldn’t bring yourself to talk to them — and suddenly they felt galaxies away? Travis Kelce could relate.
On his New Heights podcast, the NFL star revealed that he was Enchanted to meet Taylor and had made her a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it, a Swiftie tradition during the Eras Tour. But because Taylor saves her voice before and after shows, Kelce never got to give it to her. The first attempt fell incomplete, but the season wasn’t over.
You Belong With Me | September 2023
Then came the turning point. Like a scene ripped from a You Belong With Me music video, Taylor was spotted in the Arrowhead suites, cheering on Travis alongside his mom, Donna Kelce.
The NFL got a new celebrity fan, and suddenly Swifties everywhere were tuning into Sunday Night Football.

By fall, the two weren’t just rumors — they were Ours. From cozy date nights to cheering each other on in their worlds (the NFL field and the US Open stands), Swift and Kelce’s relationship turned into the ultimate crossover event.
Travis chased championships while Taylor conquered the globe with the Eras Tour, but no matter how busy, they always found ways to make time for each other.

Taylor made her long-awaited debut on New Heights — joining Travis and Jason Kelce on the mic. There, she announced her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, while laughing about the failed friendship bracelet attempt that had started it all. Swifties called it a full-circle moment; football fans called it a power move.

And then came the winning drive. On a Wednesday (PH time), Travis Kelce got down on one knee under a rose-covered arch in a private garden. The couple announced the news with a joint Instagram post captioned: “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
Photos showed the moment Kelce proposed, along with a close-up of Swift’s vintage-inspired square-oval diamond ring in a gold bezel setting, designed by Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry with Kelce’s input.
Whether in sports or in music, their love story is golden, like Daylight. And sometimes, it’s not just Sparks Fly. For Travis and Taylor, this is Forever & Always.
