It was an amusing moment in Brazil on Thursday when Patrick Mahomes couldn’t resist correcting a reporter who seemed to forget a major life update about his teammate.
The reporter, chatting with Travis Kelce ahead of the Kansas City Chiefs’ season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers on Friday night, brought up Kelce’s off-field activities—but forgot one key detail.
Engaged, Not Just Dating
As the reporter asked whether dating Taylor Swift was proving a distraction for Kelce in his 13th NFL season, Mahomes quickly jumped in, cutting him off mid-question.
With perfect timing, he simply said, “Engaged,” sparking laughter throughout the room.
Kelce, not missing a beat, added his own playful quip: “Yeah, I got one more ring from it,” referencing both his Super Bowl victories and his recent engagement.
Life With Taylor Swift Has Been Exciting
Switching to a more reflective tone, Kelce opened up about how his life has changed since dating Swift.
“Ever since I’ve been dating Taylor, life has been fun. It’s been exciting,” he admitted.
“Obviously there’s a lot more eyes on me and I accept that, but I’m living life and living on a high, I guess.”
The Engagement That Broke the Internet
Kelce and Swift’s engagement quickly made headlines last week when the NFL star proposed after two years of dating.
Fans everywhere went wild, sharing in the excitement of the couple’s milestone.
Kelce Finally Talks About the Proposal
Earlier this week, Kelce spoke publicly about the engagement, giving fans a glimpse into his happiness.
“I appreciate everybody that reached out and sent something, and all the posts, all the excitement that’s been going on,” he told his brother Jason.
“It’s been really fun telling everybody who I’m going to be spending the rest of my life with.”
