15 Years, 12 Boyfriends: Taylor Swift Announces Marriage to Sports Star

Pop superstar Taylor Swift unexpectedly shared joyful news, announcing that she is marrying NFL football star Travis Kelce, who is one year younger than her! The 35-year-old playfully wrote on IG: “Your English teacher and your PE teacher are getting married,” sweetly making the wedding announcement. The eye-catching engagement ring on her hand is reportedly 8 carats and worth about $550,000 (around RM2.32 million), with her husband also involved in the design.

Taylor Swift's post was full of creativity, using a humorous metaphor of “English teacher” and “PE teacher” to cleverly reflect both of their identities in the music and sports industries. The post also revealed the happiness and playfulness of the new bride.

Taylor Swift is known for her eventful romantic history, having had 12 boyfriends in 15 years. Since news broke in 2023 about her relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce, their romance grew increasingly public and loving. Taylor Swift was often seen supporting her boyfriend at games, and the couple attended public events together—even making a rare joint appearance on a podcast. Despite occasional breakup rumors, their sweet interactions repeatedly squashed such speculation. Now, they have finally made it official and found happiness together.

Travis's impressive background revealed

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s official wedding announcement has sparked a global sensation. This celebrity couple doesn’t just unite the worlds of music and sports, but also brings many new fans’ attention to the Kansas City Chiefs star who previously knew little about the NFL.

In 2008, Travis attended the University of Cincinnati, gradually transitioning to the position of tight end. The following year after graduation, he was selected in the third round, 63rd overall, by the Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL draft—thus starting his professional career. Initially, Travis wasn’t among the top players on his team, but he has time and again showcased astonishing skills as both a receiver and a blocker, becoming one of the league’s most outstanding tight ends. He holds multiple NFL records, including the only tight end with seven consecutive 1,000-yard receiving seasons, the highest single-season receiving yardage for a tight end with 1,416 yards in 2020, and the fastest to reach the 10,000 career receiving yards milestone. In the playoffs, his accumulated receiving yards and touchdowns have also set records for tight ends.

Beyond his achievements on the field, Travis has branched into entertainment and charity. He and his brother co-host the podcast “New Heights,” which is highly popular in the U.S. In 2024, it won Apple Podcasts’ Most Popular Sports Show, and in 2025 it was named the Best Sports Podcast by iHeartRadio. He has also participated in reality shows, starred in talk shows, and made cameo appearances in television productions.

I think he is an excellent player and a good man; I also think she (Taylor Swift) is a wonderful person, so I wish them luck.”
