When they met, Travis Kelce was a famous football player — a star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs and a Super Bowl champion — but Taylor Swift’s level of fame is like no other. Their relationship truly made him global, thanks to the Swifties. Fans and media have documented plenty of public gestures in the last two years, from Taylor celebrating at Chiefs games to fan videos of Travis Kelce dancing at her Eras concert tour. Still, there’s been some trolling and doubts about the relationship’s authenticity. In the end, though, the couple paid it dust and kept publicly dating. Most recently, she appeared on her future brother-in-law’s podcast and talked about how hard she ignores the critics of their relationship.

“We don’t, really. I don’t see a lot of things,” Taylor told Jason Kelce. “My name can be in the actual headline, and it’s none of my business.”

After two years of moving like THAT, Taylor Swift is rocking an engagement ring that could compete with her fiancé’s three Super Bowl rings. As mentioned, the newly engaged couple shared their big news in a five-photo joint Instagram post on Tuesday (August 26). She showed off her stunning ring while standing in a garden with her fiancé. The superstar wore a striped Ralph Lauren dress and a Cartier diamond-encrusted watch on her left wrist.

“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” the caption read, accompanied by an emoji of a dynamite stick.

It’s unclear when and where the two 35-year-olds got engaged, but it’s a first for them both. According to the Associated Press, an hour after hearing from their publicists about the engagement, Kelce was stretching for practice in Kansas City, Missouri.
