Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are officially engaged after a romantic garden proposal, which they revealed in a joint Instagram post on Tuesday, August 26, 2025. The post featured close-up photos of Swift’s vintage-style diamond ring and a playful caption: “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.” Fans quickly flooded social media with congratulations after seeing the announcement.
Photos from the proposal showed a garden setting framed by flowers and trees. One highlighted the standout old-mine cut diamond at the center of Taylor’s ring, emphasizing its vintage elegance. The Instagram series also included shots of Travis down on one knee, making the moment feel intimate and heartfelt.
The couple has been public about their relationship since 2023, which began after Kelce mentioned Swift on his New Heights podcast. They spent time together privately before making several public appearances over the last two years, including NFL games, concert moments, and onstage cameos.
Swift has shared her thoughts on being public about their relationship. In a December 2023 interview with TIME, she said that being public means showing up for each other in front of others and celebrating what each of them loves without worrying about outside opinions.
Engagement rumors had circulated earlier in the year. In May, a source told The Daily Mail that everyone was waiting for Travis to ask for Taylor’s parents’ blessing, expecting them to say yes when the time felt right. That moment has now arrived, and the couple is set to begin this exciting new chapter together.
