It’s the engagement news heard all over the world: On Tuesday, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce revealed that they’re tying the knot with an Instagram carousel of photos showcasing their secret-garden-themed engagement and the old mine, brilliant-cut diamond ring Kelce used to pop the question.
According to Kelce’s dad, the NFL player popped the question nearly two weeks ago, at his home in Lee’s Summit, Mo.
“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 Kelce told News 5 Cleveland. “They started FaceTiming me and their mother and her folks to make sure everybody knew. So, to see them together is great.”
The news instantly prompted a slew of well-wishes from the couple’s many fans — including a number of fellow celebrities.
Below, we’ve rounded up some of the most notable celebrity reactions to the Swift-Kelce engagement.
