Just one week after their viral Instagram announcement that “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨,” Travis Kelce is finally talking about his engagement to Taylor Swift. On a new episode of his New Heights podcast, the Kansas City Chiefs star opened up to his brother and co-host, Jason Kelce, about this exciting new chapter in his life.
“I appreciate everybody that reached out and sent something, and all the posts, all the excitement that’s been going on,” Travis said in a teaser clip. “It’s been really fun telling everybody who I’m going to be spending the rest of my life with.”
“I Still Get Giddy”
The segment began with Jason wasting no time in bringing up the news, teasing his brother by saying, “Travis, we gotta talk about it.” Travis playfully shot back, “I don’t think we do,” but the conversation quickly shifted to his joy over the engagement.
Travis admitted that the public reaction has been “overwhelming, in the best way.” He shared that the excitement has continued into his daily life, especially when he introduces Swift as his fiancée. “I felt that at the game, actually. It was my first time introducing Taylor as my fiancée to a few of my teammates. So yeah, it was pretty cool.”
When Jason asked if he gets “giddy” saying the word “fiancée,” Travis laughed and confirmed, “Yeah, I do. I still get giddy, exciting times.” The NFL star’s candid and joyful comments provide a peek into the private happiness of one of the world’s most high-profile couples, who have been together for over a year.
