Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce went to Patrick Mahomes’s b-day party on Sunday

Did you guys know that both Brittany and Patrick Mahomes are Virgos? That’s so interesting to me, you rarely see dual-Virgo marriages out in the wild, especially among celebrities. Brittany’s birthday is August 31, and Patrick’s b-day is September 17th. Taylor Swift went to some of Brittany’s b-day festivities in Nashville several weeks ago, and now it appears that Taylor went to a smallish birthday party for Patrick. This party happened on Sunday night, after the Eagles beat the Kansas City Chiefs. Country singer Kane Brown was there, and he posted a photo of the Mahomeses along with Travis Kelce and Taylor. This was the only sighting of Taylor on Sunday, because even though she attended the Chiefs game, she hid behind a barrier on her way to the VIP box, and she also hid from broadcasters during the game. TMZ now says that Taylor hid away because of security issues, which is what I figured.

Taylor Swift snuck into a football stadium to watch her fiancé Travis Kelce at work … and it looks like she used a bullet-resistant portable shield to evade detection following Charlie Kirk’s very public murder. Swifties are running with an interesting theory online after Taylor kept an extremely low profile at Sunday’s game between Travis’ Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles … her fans think she was behind a bulletproof barrier that was seen rolling through the bowels of Arrowhead Stadium in K.C.

We did some digging and it seems the barrier being used here is a bullet-resistant portable shield partition that retails for about $6,000.

Taylor usually makes high-profile arrivals to Arrowhead to watch Travis play … with tons of video typically showing her making her way to her suite. That didn’t happen Sunday and it’s unclear why she seemingly felt the need to sneak in behind a protective barrier. It will be interesting to see if Taylor keeps this up … the screen may be bad luck though … the Chiefs lost, 20-17, to drop to 0-2 on the season.

This isn’t the first time that Taylor’s security has had to turn on a dime because of some larger national issue. During her Eras Tour, she had to cancel her Vienna concerts because of a terrorist plot. The past week has been absolutely insane, and I would assume that Taylor’s private security is being inundated with credible threats. I actually wonder if Taylor is going to make a point of skipping Chiefs games for a little while, at least until things cool down.

Taylor Swift attended the Eagles-Chiefs game but hid behind a huge screen

Something really weird happened last night. While no one was paying any attention to the Emmys, football season was in full swing. The Eagles played the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium, in a rematch of the Super Bowl earlier this year. The Eagles once again beat the Chiefs, and Travis Kelce is being blasted for screwing up a pass or something (I magically still don’t know anything about football). Travis was really upset, and he was screaming and throwing his helmet. People were really going in on him online.

So, that was weird, but so is this: Taylor Swift was allegedly there, but no one caught sight of her and there were no photos or cutaways to her during the game. For the past two football seasons, Taylor is a regular at games played at Arrowhead. She and her team work with Arrowhead security, and there’s almost always a little “stroll” in one of the stadium’s corridors where a couple of photographers can get pics of her outfit. As I said, that’s been the case for two years. But this year, for the Chiefs’ first home game of the season, Taylor didn’t do that. She apparently hid behind a screen on her way to the VIP box. Which… okay, maybe she didn’t feel like being photographed like that anymore. But they didn’t get any photos of her in the VIP box either?? What’s going on? People Mag swears that she was there, so I guess she just watched her fiance’s team lose from deep inside the VIP box.

People are immediately going with “pregnant.” Possibly, but I think there’s a much better chance that this was completely about her security. Taylor showed up late, mid-game as well.

I’m not a Taylor Swift fan. However, she has freely walked in and out of chief games no problem. Now she’s engaged to Travis Kelce. So why would they need to block people from seeing her? Enter or exit the game? I will tell you. She’s probably pregnant. @taylorswift13pic.twitter.com/uSVO26AyGP

People: Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s wedding ‘will definitely be a private affair’

After the first rush of excitement and buzz about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement, it actually felt like they’re trying to lower the temperature a little bit. For the past week, there’s been a consistent thread of stories in the vein of “Taylor and Travis are not going to have a big wedding” and “this isn’t going to be a splashy affair.” According to Travis – on last week’s New Heights pod – he and Tay haven’t started planning anything yet, and I would imagine they’re still looking at their schedules and they’re stuck on “when” and perhaps “where.” Well, in case you needed to hear it from People Magazine, that’s what their cover story is all about.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may have shared their engagement news with the world, but their actual wedding won’t be a such a public affair. A source tells PEOPLE in this week’s issue that the pop star and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end “want to keep it more private” when they tie the knot.

“It will definitely be a private affair and not a spectacle,” the source says. “They both have a close circle of friends, and they’ll respect their privacy.”

Swift and Kelce, both 35, announced their engagement on Instagram on Aug. 26 after two years of dating, sharing sweet photos from the proposal with the caption, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.” Kelce popped the question with an old mine brilliant cut diamond — a ring the source says Swift is “still showing off.”

“She’s incredibly happy,” the source adds. “It’s all just perfect.”

As for wedding planning, the couple are taking things one step at a time. Kelce said on New Heights that he hasn’t thought for “one second” about a bachelor party, but promised that it’s “gonna go crazy” when they do get to wedding planning. “That,” he said, “is the next step.”

[From People]

One more word about the ring – what impressed me was not the size, cut or price tag. What impressed me was that Travis knows and understands Taylor’s taste. It looks like the kind of ring she would have picked out for herself. Which is the real prize for Taylor and for all women: to be known, to have someone who understands us and knows our preferences and tastes. As for the wedding planning… I’d love a spectacle worthy of their level of celebrity, but yeah, I don’t think Taylor would want that. I really hope we get to see her dress though, because I feel like that’s going to be THE most princessy wedding gown ever.

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce made their first outing as an engaged couple

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made their first public appearance as an officially engaged couple last night. They were in Kansas City, and they attended a college football game at Arrowhead Stadium. The game was between the University of Cincinnati’s Bearcats versus the University of Nebraska’s Cornhuskers. The Univ. of Cincinnati is Travis’s alma mater. The Bearcats lost though!! I wonder if Travis was upset.

Taylor spent much of the game sitting in between Travis and Jason Kelce, and both brothers were very focused on the game. Taylor seemed fine though – after two years, she’s gotten used to Travis bringing her to sporting events which she really doesn’t care about. I’ll never forget how little attention she paid to the US Open men’s final last year! Last night, she just seemed happy to be out and about, and with Travis. Page Six got some shots of Taylor’s whole look, and it’s terrible. If anything, her style has significantly regressed with Travis. Fascinating.

There are so many stories about Taylor and Trav this week, and most of them are pretty dumb and/or obvious. TMZ reports that Tay and Trav still aren’t technically living together, but that’s just a case of “rich people logistics.” Whenever Taylor is in Kansas City, she’s staying with Travis. He also stays at Taylor’s homes in New York, LA, Nashville and Newport. The Daily Mail and a few other outlets keep saying that the wedding will happen sooner rather than later, and it will be smaller than people expect.

Travis Kelce asked Taylor Swift’s father for ‘permission’ to propose a month ago

There are twenty million stories about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s engagement and wedding plans, and half of those stories are coming from Travis’s father, Ed Kelce, who must be spamming Tree Paine’s emails marked “urgent.” Ed Kelce gave yet another interview, this time to an Australian radio station. My God!! He’s just picking up the phone and spilling his guts to anyone, isn’t he?

Travis Kelce kept things traditional when it came to his proposal to fiancée Taylor Swift. In an interview with Australian radio’s The Jimmy & Nath Show with Emma, Travis’ dad Ed Kelce revealed that his son asked Taylor’s dad, Scott Swift, for his blessing to marry his daughter a month ago.

“I was talking to Scott Swift and Travis went to ask him for permission, and this was probably a month ago, and Scott said, ‘Well come on, when are you going to get this done?’ ” Ed, 73 recalled. Ed said, like Scott, he’d been pressing Travis, 35, to propose to Taylor, also 35, and is happy his son finally popped the question.

“He didn’t come to me for advice so much as I went to him to tell him, you know, ‘To get this done,’ ” the proud father recalled. “Travis had these plans to do it the next weekend before flying out to Brazil [for a Kansas City Chiefs game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sept. 5]. He was going to make a big production out of it some place, wanted to make it a bit special,” Ed continued. “I told him the same thing Scott told him, ‘Asking her is what’s going to make it special.’ It’s not where you do it. You know what I mean? You could do it on the side of the road. Scott adds, ‘Just get it done. Don’t worry about any special date. Just, you’re ready, you got the ring, go do it.’ ”

Travis ended up listening to the advice of his dad and future father-in-law and proposed to Taylor in his garden, Ed shared, after revealing in an earlier interview with News 5’s John Kosich that Travis had popped the question at home two weeks ago.

“They were going out to dinner and she was ready to go and he said, ‘Let’s go out in the garden on the patio and have a glass of wine before we go,’ ” he recalled on The Jimmy & Nath Show with Emma. “I think she knew something was up because as they walked out there, she could see, suddenly, there were a lot more flowers out there.”

Sharing some further excitement about his son’s engagement, Ed noted that he’s “never seen him quite so happy.”

“I think it’s wonderful,” Ed continued. “These are two young people madly in love with each other and I think this is great.”

[From People]

Scott Swift telling Travis to “get it done” is so funny. The fathers were like “are you crazy, JUST DO IT ALREADY.” At least both fathers understand that Taylor is a catch and Travis needed to lock it down ASAP. I also like that Travis did it in his own backyard, but he upgraded it with the flowers. I want to know Travis’s thought process there, because it was excellent. He really understands Taylor’s love languages.

What else? Page Six says that TNT are already planning their wedding and that it will likely be a “private” ceremony with just close friends and family, and “it will be more casual than people think.” They’re trying to dial down the “America’s royal wedding” chatter. It’s also very likely that Taylor’s team will put together a prenup, but that’s just good business (for both of them, honestly). One of the reasons why I’ve always felt that Travis is good for Taylor isn’t just that has his own money, it’s that he’s incredibly established in his own career. While he’s had more offers because of his association with Taylor, he was already making millions. Page Six also says that Taylor and Travis are “eyeing” a $18 million Ohio mansion for their next real estate purchase.

Travis Kelce’s dad reveals that Travis proposed to Taylor Swift two weeks ago

Taylor Swift really is America’s princess, because it seems like every major demographic is obsessed with her engagement to Travis Kelce. Political reporters were breaking the news live outside the White House, tennis commentators broke the news in the middle of Jannik Sinner’s match, and everyone’s obsessing over the engagement news online. Interestingly enough, Travis’s father Ed Kelce ended up spilling some major tea about the proposal. Is this an unauthorized leak???

Ed Kelce is sharing the details of his son Travis Kelce’s romantic proposal to Taylor Swift. In an interview with News 5’s John Kosich, Ed revealed that the proposal took place “maybe two weeks, not quite two weeks ago” at Kelce’s home.

“He was going to put it off till 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. “And 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….He got her out there, they were about to go out to dinner, and he said, ‘Let’s go out and have a glass of wine’ … they got out there, and that’s when he asked her, and it was beautiful.”

Following the proposal, “They started FaceTiming me and their mother and her folks to make sure everybody knew. So, to see them together is great. I got a FaceTime call from them, and as soon as I saw the FaceTime, I saw it was Travis, and then I saw Taylor there with him, I knew what they were going to say,” he said, “and they, you know, let us know.”

Ed revealed that on Sunday, he supported Kelce at ESPN’s premiere of The Kingdom, telling the outlet, “his mother and I went with him back to his house for dinner, where Taylor made dinner, and we had a wonderful dinner with them outside on the patio and to just watch the two of them, just crazy about each other,” he said.

[From People]

Y’all know Tree Paine is going to have a sit-down conversation with Travis’s father, right? “You cannot call into a local Cleveland station and spill details about your son’s proposal.” But it’s sweet, and it adds to the “America’s princess” vibe – for royal engagements, the parents always issue statements too. Ed Kelce’s son won the heart of the princess! And I agree with him about “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.” There was a Twitter thread/conversation months ago about women accidentally messing up their man’s proposals, and it was so funny. Story after story about “he wanted to go see some beautiful garden and I refused because I didn’t want to walk that far, so he proposed in the kitchen.” The proposal is what makes it special, not the location! Still, Travis knows Taylor well enough to know that he needed to go all out.

Engagements Taylor Swift Travis Kelce

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce are engaged, the first engagement for both

This is both surprising and not so surprising, right? Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged! It’s surprising because many of Taylor’s fans have spent YEARS arguing that how dare anyone suggest that she wants to get married, she’s unmarried by choice, she’s protecting her assets, etc. And yet… if you listen to her music, you can hear a woman who is romantic, who dreams of big love, who wants to be really “settled down.” If you’ve been following the two year saga of TNT (Taylor & Trav), you’re also not surprised at all – these two have been severely smitten with each other this whole time. Well, now it’s happening!

One step closer to “End Game” — Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged! The “Cruel Summer” singer and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, both 35, announced their engagement in a joint post on Instagram alongside several photos from their floral-filled garden proposal on Tuesday, Aug. 26.

“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married ????,” Swift wrote in the caption.

Kelce proposed with a ring he designed with Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry. The dazzling stone is an “Old Mine brilliant cut,” which Swift shows off in a series of photos announcing the big news.

The first engagement photo is of Kelce proposing on bended knee as Swift lovingly rests one hand on his face. Other shots show the pair embracing and sitting on a bench underneath pink-and-white floral trellis.

[From People]

Congratulations to them! I love that they posted photos, and I love that there’s a dedicated photo for the ring. I read “old mine brilliant cut” before I saw the photo and I was like “hm, I hope this doesn’t suck.” Ladies, it does NOT suck. It’s a good ring, with a vintage flavor and very, very big. But also not too big that she’s lugging around a rock which needs its own security. The perfect happy-medium.
