“Travis has been planning to propose for a while, it’s just a matter of finding the right moment. He spoke to her parents to get their blessing and swore them to secrecy,” an unnamed source told Star Magazine.
The couple has been battling with rumors that they are engaged ever since she was spotted supporting the Kansas City Chiefs tight end next to his mother in September of last year.
The crossover between the NFL and pop diva fandoms captured the attention of both. For instance, a well-connected sports journalist sent Swifties into a tailspin when he hinted that Travis had proposed to Taylor Swift.
Adam Schefter, who has a long history of revealing important football news, made fun of the panelists during his August 27 appearance on ESPN’s NFL Live. “How do you know that Travis Kelce did not buy something like that?” Adam questioned after host Laura Rutledge introduced a story about “a big purchase” that Kelce had recently made.
It was made clear that the purchase in question was a stake in a racehorse named Swift Delivery rather than an engagement ring. He then withdrew as they kept probing him nonstop after that.
The 34-year-old couple is not in a rush to announce their news. To the point where the Rhode Island gathering was billed as a celebration of Taylor’s closest friend and prospective matron of honor, 37-year-old Blake Lively.
“They want to keep it to themselves right now and just savor this moment, but they have told their family and close friends, and everyone’s elated for them,” the anonymous insider told the entertainment news outlet.
Those who attended the weekend party at the oceanfront property were treated to an opulent stay, according to In Touch Weekly.
“They bedrooms are fully stocked with anything you can think of, including robes and beach shoes in all the right sizes. She also had a little welcome toys and treats for the kids,” the undisclosed informant shared.
The actress from “Gossip Girl” and her 47-year-old husband Ryan Reynolds were also there, along with Travis’s brother and sister-in-law, 36-year-old Jason Kelce and 32-year-old Kylie Kelce, along with their daughters.
In addition, 29-year-old quarterback Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs and his pregnant wife Brittany, also 29 years old, were present with their kids.
The 29-year-old model Gigi Hadid was also there, along with her 49-year-old boyfriend Bradley Cooper, who brought his 7-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.
“Taylor loves that so many of her friends have kids now. Having that family atmosphere makes her happy,” the tipster shared, adding that friends say Taylor and Travis “can’t wait until they have their own kids to join in the fun.”
As everyone already knows, one of the reasons Travis fell in love with Taylor was her strong family values, which he found to be “right up my alley.” During an interview on a podcast in June, he also raved about how “genuine” she is around friends and family.
They are taking advantage of every chance they have together as Taylor is taking a little vacation from her concert tour and Travis is getting ready to start a demanding 18-week football season. Due to his summer training camp schedule and her European tour dates, they have been apart for a considerable amount of time, which has tested their relationship in recent weeks.
“It wasn’t easy bacause they missed each other so much, but they handled it well. It made them realize they can make this work,” the mole said.
Following the revelation of a terror plot targeting Taylor’s venue in Vienna at the beginning of August, it was reported that they had an extremely emotional reunion.
“Travis hated that he couldn’t be by her side for that, so having her back in his arms was huge relief. Expect to see her at the tight end’s games this fall, cheering her heart out just like last year,” the tattler said.
“Taylor’s told friends he’s the missing piece she’s been waiting to find, and he says the same. They really make each other’s lives complete. They both really feel this is meant to be,” it went on.
