Travis Kelce’s Father Confirms Engagement to Taylor Swift: A Love Story Unveiled at Missouri Garden

The father of NFL star Travis Kelce has provided insights into the player’s recent engagement to pop sensation Taylor Swift.

In an interview with CNN affiliate WEWS, Ed Kelce revealed that his son proposed to Swift nearly two weeks ago in a garden in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. He shared that the proposal took place before they headed out for dinner, with Kelce asking the question amidst a picturesque setting.

Kelce further disclosed that after the proposal, he and his future daughter-in-law made calls to their respective families to share the happy news. “To see them together is great,” he stated.

Ed Kelce had previously informed his family about Travis’s plan to propose months prior. The announcement has since been met with enthusiasm by Swifties, who have been eager for details regarding the engagement.

Just days before the proposal, Ed and Donna Kelce attended the premiere of ESPN’s new docuseries “The Kingdom,” which chronicles the 2024 season of Travis Kelce’s team, the Kansas City Chiefs. While on the red carpet, they were asked about their son’s recent happiness. Ed attributed it to Swift, saying, “Taylor. There’s no question about it.”

Donna Kelce later shared her thoughts on the couple with Travis’ brother Jason Kelce on their podcast, “New Heights.” She described their appearance as authentic and loving.
