Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have been dating for nearly a year (I’m rounding up, leave me alone!) and naturally some fans want to know when Travis is gonna pull out a ring and say “Marry me, Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone I love you, and that’s all I really know.”
The answer? No one’s business, to be quite honest, but that hasn’t stopped everyone from talking about it. And when I say everyone, I mean sources, insiders, friends, and even Travis himself. Multiple times!
Due to being truly committed to the Taylor Swift + Travis Kelce discourse and wanting to procrastinate on the rest of our responsibilities, we’ve rounded up literally everything everyone’s said about a possible engagement. Enjoy!
Back in December 2023, Page Six spoke to a “source close to Kelce” who claimed Trav asked Scott Swift for his permission to propose to Taylor. Ahem: “Scott has been asked for his blessing and has wholeheartedly given it, and Travis has been talking to friends about a ring.”
Then in January, Page Six reported “there’s buzz around Swift’s camp” that Travis and Taylor will get engaged in the summer, and Travis only didn’t propose on Valentine’s Day because “they don’t want it to seem like it’s rushed insanity.” Their source added, “Taylor and Travis discussed it and there is a plan. They will get engaged on their one-year anniversary in July.”
Meanwhile, an insider told The Messenger (a website that no longer exists, womp) that “There are no plans for an engagement anytime soon” and “there is no engagement at this time.” Their source also mused, “It’s still new, and they’re happy and still getting to know each other.”
Travis’ mom Donna Kelce was asked about a potential engagement by CNN and said “It’s totally up to them, them being happy, we don’t know anything, for right now, I’m sure he would call me up and tell me, and I haven’t heard anything yet. That’s all you want for your children is happiness, nothing else matters.” Just a mom momming!
Meanwhile, Travis’ Chiefs teammate Harrison Butker straight up said “I hope they get married and start a family.”
What Travis Says (Because Yes, He’s Spoken Out!)
First, there was the time he was minding his own business at a Super Bowl press conference and a reporter (some might say boldly) asked him “Is there going to be another ring besides the Super Bowl ring if you win this thing on Sunday?” Travis’s response? “I’m focused on getting this ring, and that’s all that my mind’s focused on right now.”
More recently, Travis was chatting about NBA player Victor Wembanyama on his podcast New Heights, and after saying “You can’t tell me that dude wasn’t made in a fucking lab over there in France. Lab-grown diamonds, that’s a lab-grown fucking NBA player,” he said—slightly under his breath—“Can’t wait til I fuckin’ make one.”
Note: Travis’ brother Jason responded with “Don’t do this. Do not give any of these other conspiracy theorists anything else to latch onto, please.”
Too late, Jason! Latched and locked!
