With the Super Bowl underway, rumours have been spreading like wildfire that Travis Kelce could be proposing to Taylor Swift. Last year saw the championship held in Las Vegas for the first time ever, with the Chiefs defending their title in a thrilling overtime victory against the San Francisco 49ers. And now, the action will unfold in New Orleans, with the Caesars Superdome hosting for the eighth time as the Chiefs take on the Philadelphia Eagles.
Taylor has been supporting Travis through many games, with the Love Story singer most recently celebrating with the football star when his team qualified for the Super Bowl. Travis and Taylor partied the night away after the Chiefs won, along with his teammates and their loved ones. With the big day finally here, rumours are rife that Travis is planning to pop the question should he and his team secure victory, with odds slashed on the possibility the sports star will ask Taylor to be his wife on the pitch after the game. Engagement speculation is a far cry from a few months ago when many were convinced Travis and Taylor's relationship was nothing more than a PR stunt.
Travis didn't help with the rumours as he teased possible proposal plans at a busy Radio Row on Monday. When pressed by journalists on whether he intends to get down on one knee to propose to the Shake It Off star during the halftime show, Travis cheekily responded: "Wouldn't you like to know," sparking even more interest from nosy fans. He went on to sidestep more questions about whether the big event could include a romantic conclusion for the couple, cleverly replying with a reference to the game's prize, "[with] a Super Bowl ring?" Despite the endless questioning from fans and reporters, Travis kept his lips sealed and even got bored of the speculation. .
"Man, back-to-back (questions)? You guys are crazy?" he said. Fans previously believed Taylor was already engaged when they spotted her wearing gloves in the stadium. Travis' team, the Kansas City Chiefs, competed in two NFL games at their home Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, with Taylor in attendance for them. She wore a pair of black gloves to one of the games. Although she arrived without gloves to one of them, fans were still convinced the gloves had a meaning. One fan wrote on X: "Not a lot of people in that suite wearing gloves. Could Taylor be hiding the ring?!" Another said at the time: "Swifties want to know are the gloves hiding a ring.".
