While it might feel like Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s romance has dominated the news cycle for centuries, the two lovebirds are just approaching their one-year anniversary. Their romance, which sparked around this time last year, quickly escalated from flirty exchanges about friendship bracelets to headline-making gifts, setting the stage for what’s become what is easily the watched celebrity relationship of the year.
Now, as their one-year milestone looms on the horizon, whispers from their close circle suggest Travis Kelce is feeling the weight of expectation to take their relationship to the next level. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is reportedly contemplating a grand romantic gesture that involves getting down on one knee to propose to the pop superstar with a heartfelt, “Marry me Taylor, you’ll never have to be alone.”
“The timing is right,” reveals an insider to Life & Style. “They’ve been together almost a year now and they’re madly in love, so it makes sense that they’d be discussing marriage.” This sentiment is echoed across their inner circle, with friends and family fully supportive of the couple’s potential leap into matrimony.
Kelce himself has been open about their bond, sharing insights into their relationship dynamics. “We’re both very career-driven. We both love what we do, and any chance that I can show my support to her — and knowing that she’s showing me all the support in the world throughout the season — it’s just been an amazing experience getting to know Tay,” Kelce expressed. His admiration extends to Swift’s creative process as well, “It’s definitely been fun to experience her taste in music, for sure. She’s so amazing at what she does.”
The couple was enjoying some downtime before Swift headed off to Europe for the next leg of her Eras Tour, “Taylor and Travis are soaking up their downtime together… When they’re able to just chill out, they love to hang out with their friends and family, travel, see new things together, and enjoy their privacy.”
This isn’t the first time marriage has been on their minds. Insiders have previously noted that Swift sees Kelce as “daddy material” and is keen on settling down with him, and engagement rumors have popped up in the past. “They’ve grown so close in such a short amount of time. It feels so right.” And while practicalities like prenups are part of the conversation — “Travis has no problem signing a prenup,” one source mentioned, emphasizing the blend of romance and pragmatism in their relationship — it’s their commitment to each other that truly shines.
As for the proposal itself? “The big moment – and the ring – need to be super special,” admits another source to Life & Style. Knowing Kelce, who has shown off his larger than life personality with every NFLL victory, whatever plans are in store will indeed make for an unforgettable experience. “But Travis is a ‘grand gesture’ kind of guy, so no matter what or when he finally asks her, it will be an experience that they’ll remember forever.”
