Travis Kelce's dad shares details of son's proposal to Taylor Swift

Singer-songwriter Taylor Swift and NFL tight end Travis Kelce announced their engagement  on Instagram after two years of dating.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may have announced their engagement on Tuesday afternoon but the Kansas City Chiefs star’s father spilled the beans on when his son actually proposed.

Ed Kelce told a local Cleveland TV station that the three-time Super Bowl champion proposed about two weeks ago. The photos posted on Swift’s Instagram account showed the tight end down on one knee, surrounded by flowers in a garden setting.

"Travis actually did the proposal, oh, maybe two weeks, not quite two weeks ago," Ed Kelce told News 5 Cleveland on Tuesday. "He was going to put it off ‘til this week. I think she was getting maybe a little antsy, but he was going to put her off ‘til this week, to, you know, make some grand thing, to make it a big special event. 

"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."

Ed Kelce said that Travis proposed in a garden in Lee’s Summit, Missouri.
