The couple have been dating for roughly 18 months

Travis Kelce's family have given the NFL star the green light to propose to Taylor Swift with the duo dating for more than 18 months, according to reports.

Swift has been a regular at games involving the Kansas City Chiefs ever since the pair first started going out in 2023.


That was the case earlier this month, with the pop star in attendance as the Philadelphia Eagles rocked the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl.

Prior to that match, rumours suggested that a proposal was imminent - with some publications even going as far to suggest Kelce had purchased an engagement ring.

Ultimately, with the Chiefs crashing to defeat, there was no proposal following the showdown in New Orleans.

According to Page Six, however, Kelce's family 'adore' Swift and are hoping the pair's relationship goes the distance.

They think the singer is 'perfect' for the Chiefs star and 'would love to see them spend their lives together'.

An insider added that Kelce's parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, had never seen the 35-year-old 'so happy with a girlfriend before'.

They are also said to 'know that Taylor isn't using Travis for his fame and that she truly loves and cares about him for who he is'.

The source continued: “[The Kelce] family gets along great with Taylor’s family too.

“Their families blend seamlessly.”

Right now, it's currently unclear when or if Kelce is planning to pop the question.

But an enagement would likely lead to many supportive messages from fans, with many enjoying the couple being together.

Kelce, meanwhile, is currently enjoying some time off following the Eagles' Super Bowl defeat.

Speaking recently, the Chiefs star admitted that the loss was a 'tough pill to swallow' - having dreamed of winning the prestigious prize for the third year on the trot.

Kelce admitted: “It just wasn’t our day. Couldn’t find a lick of momentum.

“I’m kicking myself for some of the tiny, tiny decisions I made on the field, trying to do something more than what I asked to do during plays.

“I wasn’t the best leader that I could be in motivating my guys and keeping my guys calm, cool and collected.

"I put a lot of that on myself as, you know, the guy that’s been in the building for 12 years and seen a lot of football and actually seen a situation just like this in the Super Bowl, talking about the Tampa Bay Super Bowl.

"Every time we felt like we made a big play or we got something going, a penalty would happen or we’d be going backwards.

"Then, on top of that, just not executing the play calls. It wasn’t the play calls.

“It was the cumulative effort of everybody just not finding a way to get it done, man.

"To happen on the biggest stage sucks, but to have it happen for the second time of my career on the biggest stage, man, it’s a tough pill to swallow.”
