Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, faced a lot of questions from reporters about his relationship with pop star Taylor Swift during the Super Bowl’s opening night.
One reporter asked if Kelce was planning to propose to Taylor Swift at Super Bowl LIX. His playful response to the question sparked a lot of buzz among fans. When asked directly, “Are the rumors true? Are you proposing to Taylor at halftime?” Kelce responded with, “Wouldn’t you like to know.” He was asked twice more if he planned to give Swift a ring, and he joked, “Man, back to back, you guys are crazy.”
Kelce never gave a clear answer about the proposal, which led to different opinions from fans. One fan said, “He’s not interested in marrying her or else he would’ve proposed by now.” Another person agreed, saying, “That’s a big no.” Some fans thought Swift might not want to get married, with one commenting, “She’s not gonna marry him. He knows it, that’s why he shifts away from it.” However, other fans were more hopeful, with one saying, “Well, it would be about time….this relationship needs a stamp! Hope it’s soon.” But not everyone felt that way, as another fan said, “Leave them alone… no rush… they seem happy just the way they are.” Some fans thought it was inappropriate to propose during the Super Bowl, with one saying, “Hopefully not during the Super Bowl. That should be private.” A few fans supported Kelce’s decision to dodge the proposal question, with one commenting, “Dude that is private information I don’t blame him for dodging the questions.”
Kelce was more open about other aspects of his relationship with Swift. He talked about the challenge of being apart from her during the playoff season. He admitted that, although he wasn’t able to support her during that time, the distance played a role in their success. The 35-year-old also shared that both he and Swift value the real aspects of their relationship and that their bond is strong.
When asked about Swift’s work ethic, Kelce said, “I better hold up my end of the bargain, right?” He joked, “I mean, if she’s out here being the superstar she is, never taking no for an answer, and always working her tail off, I better match that energy for sure.”
Kelce also shared that Swift is a good cook. When asked about his favorite meal she makes, he said, “She is quite the cook. I would say, man, I’m a breakfast guy, man. Her pop-tarts are unbelievable, man. Her homemade pop-tarts are unbelievable.”
The couple has continued to make headlines by showing up for each other at public events. On December 18, 2024, Kelce reportedly threw Swift a surprise party to celebrate the end of her Eras Tour, which had been a huge success. The party was a glamorous affair, with Swift wearing a black dress by Balmain, and Kelce wearing a stylish black suit. Swift’s friends, including Brittany Mahomes, were also in attendance, and Kelce’s mom, Donna Kelce, joined in the celebration as well.
Fans quickly noticed something interesting in photos from the party—Swift’s ring finger seemed to be blurred. Some fans began to speculate that she might be engaged. Comments like “she straight up has her ring finger blurred” and “is it me or does it seem like Taylor is going out of her way to not show her ring finger?” filled social media. Others commented on the possibility of an engagement, with one person saying, “pretty sure Taylor Swift is engaged 
so happy for her travis seems to really adore her & respect her career.”
As fans continued to wonder about a possible engagement, many also celebrated the strong bond between Swift and Kelce. One fan said, “no man has ever loved taylor swift the way travis kelce loves taylor swift.”
While Swift has had an incredible year professionally, wrapping up her record-breaking $2 billion Eras Tour, she also seems to be enjoying her personal life with Kelce. The Eras Tour alone sold over $2 billion in tickets, making it the highest-grossing concert tour in history. Swift’s production company reported that over 10 million fans attended the shows, making it an unforgettable success. As she takes a break and fans continue to speculate about her future with Kelce, it’s clear that 2024 has been a monumental year for the pop star, both in her career and her personal life.
