‎Travis Kelce’s dad Ed Kelce reveals intimate details of Taylor Swift engagement — including exactly when proposal happened

Ed Kelce provided intimate details on his son Travis’ proposal to Taylor Swift, revealing when the Kansas City Chiefs star popped the question.
‎
‎“He got her out there, they were about to go out to dinner, and he said, ‘Let’s go out and have a glass of wine,’ … They got out there, and that’s when he asked her, and it was beautiful,” Ed told ABC News 5 Cleveland on Tuesday.
‎
‎The singer’s soon-to-be father-in-law went on to share that the NFL tight end proposed to Swift nearly two weeks ago, confirming Page Six’s exclusive reporting on the engagement timeline.
‎
‎Although Ed told the outlet that Travis got down on one knee at a garden in Lee’s Summit, Mo., Page Six can exclusively reveal that Travis actually popped the question in the backyard of his Leawood, Kan., house.
‎
‎Ed continued: “He was going to put it off till this week. I think she was getting maybe a little antsy, but he was going to put her off till 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, 74, shared that he learned of the proposal not long after Travis got down on one knee.
‎
‎“They started FaceTiming me and their mother [Donna Kelce] and her folks [mom Andrea Swift and dad Scott Swift] to make sure everybody knew. So, to see them together is great,” he said.
‎
‎Ed was visiting a public Eagles practice when he got the call from the couple.

‎
‎“I got a FaceTime call from them, and as soon as I saw the FaceTime, I saw it was Travis, and then I saw Taylor there with him, I knew what they were going to say, and they, you know, let us know,” he said.
‎
‎The “Fortnight” singer and the athlete, both 35, announced their engagement via Instagram on Tuesday, sharing several adorable photos from their beautiful flower-filled proposal.

‎
‎“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨,” they captioned the joint Instagram post.

‎
‎The couple appeared to be on cloud nine while they hugged and kissed in their photos documenting their special day.
‎
‎The pro athlete proposed to his girlfriend with a custom old mine brilliant-cut diamond in a gold bezel setting.

‎
‎Travis designed the sparkler himself alongside jeweler Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine.
