The pop icon and the NFL star, both 35, announced their bombshell marriage news with a romantic photoshoot showing Kelce proposing in a rose garden, which Swift captioned: ‘Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.’ Swift also revealed her mammoth diamond engagement ring in the post.
The star shared the post on her Instagram, set to ballad So High School, which is about her enduring love for Kelce. The couple went public with their relationship in September 2023 when the singer appeared alongside Kelce’s mother, Donna, at a Kansas City Chiefs game.
Since that day their romance has captivated the world, with Swift supporting Kelce’s run to two Super Bowls while the NFL star has traveled alongside her around the globe on her wildly successful Eras tour. Throughout that time, Kelce has faced repeated scrutiny over his future plans with the singer.
And now he has got down on one knee and popped the question just days before the beginning of what many expect to be his final NFL season.
He was pictured in Kansas City earlier this week at the launch of a documentary about the team but he appeared at the event without Swift.
Kelce’s family were there and gave no indication of any knowledge about the huge news that was on the way.
