Pop superstar Taylor Swift and American football player Travis Kelce announced their engagement on Tuesday, setting the stage for a high-profile wedding for one of the world’s biggest celebrity couples.
A joint post on their Instagram pages showed pictures of Kelce down on one knee making his marriage proposal in a flower-laden garden, and then Swift displaying a large diamond ring.
“Your English teacher and gym teacher are getting married,” the pair, both aged 35, joked in a caption.
The couple first went public with their relationship in 2023, and their love story has been broadcast on some of the world’s biggest stages. The pair have appeared together at her hugely popular concerts and at his NFL games playing for the Kansas City Chiefs.
US President Donald Trump was among the first to publicly congratulate the star couple, despite earlier bad blood with Swift over her endorsement of his opponent Kamala Harris in last year’s US election.
“I wish them a lot of luck,” he told reporters at a cabinet meeting, when asked about the engagement.
The engagement was welcomed on social media, with more than 1.8 million likes on the Instagram post in less than 20 minutes. The NFL offered congratulations.
No wedding date was announced.
