Travis Kelce has publicly addressed his engagement to Taylor Swift for the first time in a teaser for the New Heights podcast, sharing his excitement and appreciation for the global response.
In the teaser clip for the upcoming New Heights episode, Travis Kelce broke his silence on the engagement, expressing heartfelt thanks to the fans. He mentioned how fun it has been to share the news, saying, “It’s been really fun telling everybody who I’m going to be spending the rest of my life with.”
The engagement was first revealed on Instagram on August 26, with a post that quickly went viral, amassing over 10 million likes within an hour. The photos showed Kelce on one knee in a beautifully decorated garden, with Swift’s massive engagement ring prominently displayed.
According to reports, Kelce had the garden set up while they were filming the podcast, and he proposed right after they finished recording. The ring, an old mine brilliant-cut diamond in a gold bezel setting, was designed by Kelce himself, adding a personal touch to the gesture.
Ed Kelce, Travis’s father, shared that he received a FaceTime call from the couple shortly after the proposal, and he immediately knew what they were going to say. He praised their relationship, noting that they are deeply in love despite the public scrutiny.
Their relationship began in 2023 after Kelce publicly expressed interest in Swift on his podcast. Swift later confirmed this, calling it “metal as hell” that he put her on blast. They have since been seen together at various events, solidifying their bond.
The New Heights podcast has been a platform for their relationship milestones, with Swift’s appearance earlier this month to announce her album. The upcoming episode is highly anticipated for more personal details about the engagement.
As they move forward, the couple is expected to plan their wedding, with fans and media closely watching. This engagement not only celebrates their love but also highlights the intersection of sports and entertainment in modern celebrity culture.
