Taylor Swift shared the sweet and surprising story of how Travis Kelce pulled off his surprise proposal, turning a regular day into something unforgettable.
During her latest appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, her first in nearly three years, the 14-time Grammy revealed that what started as a seemingly normal day centered around a podcast they had been planning together evolved into a carefully orchestrated, romantic proposal.
“So basically, I think for Travis, the podcast was just sort of like a distraction sort of ruse to keep me not looking out the windows of the house,” she told Fallon. “It’s like the drape is fully like just blackout drapes on every single window of the whole house.”
She further revealed that he was acting nervous , which was unusual for him , which tipped her off and she could tell something bigger was going on than just a podcast.
They’d been talking about doing the podcast and announcing her album, so she assumed that was what was making him anxious.
“He’s like, my heart is racing. I just really want I know how much this means to you,” she recalled. “ I’ve never seen this dude nervous ever.”
At one point, Kelce suggested they take a walk in the backyard with a glass of wine, something she says she’d “always” say yes to. But as they stepped outside, everything suddenly made sense.
She realized the real reason for the blackout curtains and his nervous energy is because he had transformed the backyard into a “secret garden” where he got down on one knee and proposed.
“It was the best possible case scenario,” Swift gushed. Taylor Swift and TRavis Kelce got engaged in August.
