NFL star Travis Kelce proposed to Taylor Swift this week on Tuesday August 26, and while fans have been showing total excitement over the development, Kelce’s father has revealed the details around his son’s proposal.
The couple announced it online

Swift and Kelce announced their engagement online in an Instagram post that has since garnered a whopping 32 million likes.
They shared a series of charming pictures from the proposal with Swift writing in the caption, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
Travis actually proposed two weeks ago

Although the couple only shared the news on Tuesday, Travis’ father, Ed Kelce, revealed that his son actually popped the question two weeks ago.
He told News 5, “Travis actually did the proposal, oh, maybe two weeks, not quite two weeks ago.”
The NFL star was going to ‘put it off’
The father explained that Travis was actually quite nervous about proposing that he almost put it off.
“He was going to put it off until this week. I think she was getting maybe a little antsy, but he was going to put her off till this week, to, you know, make some grand thing, to make it a big special event,” Ed said.
But he advised his son to not worry about it
The father gave Kelce some words of encouragement, adding, “I told him repeatedly, you know, you could do it on the side of the road, do it any place that makes it a special event … when you get down on one knee and ask her to marry you.”
Taylor’s dad shared similar sentiments
It seems like Taylor’s father also shared similar sentiments to the Kansas City Chiefs star, according to Ed Kelce.
Knowing that Kelce actually proposed two weeks prior to the announcement, Swifties managed to figure out that it must’ve been around the time Swift was on his podcast.
It explains why he was so nervous

Swift was featured on the Kelce brothers’ podcast New Heights on August 13, where she announced her upcoming album, The Life of a Showgirl.
With the proposal timeline in mind, fans who watched the episode figured that Kelce must’ve been nervous because he was about to propose.
They initially thought it was a different reason
Fans initially thought Kelce was nervous because it was Swift’s first time on the podcast, but now figure it was because it was closer to the time of the proposal.
“We thought Travis was nervous to have her on the podcast but it’s because he was about to propose what the hell,” one fan said on X.
They began imagining what it would’ve been like
Another person wrote that Kelce had ‘the face of a man who was going to propose in a few hours.’
Another added, “Wait HOLD ON, Taylor and Travis filmed the podcast episode on August 10 where Travis said the most romantic things i’ve ever heard someone say to Taylor, and then they got dressed and went to dinner where travis led her out to a beautiful garden & proposed.”
