Travis Kelce is sharing a few more details about his engagement to Taylor Swift.
In a pre-game interview ahead of the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Philadelphia Eagles matchup on Sunday (Sept. 14), the NFL star sat down with NFL on FOX to open up about the moment he popped the big question to the pop superstar.
“The palms were definitely sweating,” the Chiefs tight end told sportscaster Erin Andrews in a clip shared on Instagram. “I’m an emotional guy, so there were a few tears here and there. It’s been an exciting ride up to this day, and I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with her.”
While Kelce kept most of the details private, he added that he’d let Swift “tell that story.”
The highly anticipated game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, marks a Super Bowl LIX rematch between the Chiefs and the Eagles. It was unclear whether Swift will be in attendance to cheer on her fiancé from the stands as of press time.
Kelce’s pre-game interview comes just weeks after he and Swift announced their engagement in late August, sharing photos on Instagram of the athlete proposing on one knee in a rose-filled garden.
“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” they captioned the post.
The couple’s engagement follows nearly two years of dating. Fans first caught wind of Kelce’s crush on Swift during a 2023 episode of the New Heights podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother, Jason Kelce. At the time, he shared his disappointment over not being able to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number during one of her Eras Tour stops in Kansas City.
Now, as the couple looks ahead to wedding planning, both stars are also gearing up for major milestones in their respective careers. Kelce launched his 13th NFL season earlier this month, while Swift is preparing to release her 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl, on Oct. 3.
