Swifties everywhere, brace yourselves.
Get ready for a major development on a
real life love story. Taylor Swift and
Travis Kelce have just announced on
social media that they are engaged to be
married. Will Telus is here with more on
this. This is caused causing huge
excitement in the newsroom and
presumably around the world. What what
have you been able to find out?
>> Yeah, that's right, Mary. So, it's
probably fair to say she's the biggest
pop star in the world right now, and
she's famously won the hearts of
millions of fans around the world with
songs about love and heartbreak. But, as
you say, in the last hour or so, we've
had the news that Taylor Swift is
engaged to her now fiance, the NFL star
Travis Kelce. She made the announcement
in an Instagram post. I think we've got
some pictures we can show you of that
now. The pair were all smiles in a
garden setting, as you can see. And the
caption of that post simply read, "Your
English teacher and your gym teacher are
getting married." And that caption fits
with the song playing in the background,
I'm told by some swifties in the office,
Mary. That's the song playing is so high
school. And that's from her 11th album,
The Tortured Poets Department. A song
believed to be about Travis Kelsey. And
the pair have been dating for about 2
years now. when she said she actually
first became aware Travis was
romantically interested in her after he
spoke about going to one of her concerts
on the podcast he hosts with his brother
and a couple of weeks ago the pair went
back on that podcast together where
Taylor confirmed that's where the spark
was lit. Let's take a listen.
>> I owe a lot to this podcast. This
podcast got me a boyfriend um ever since
Travis decided to use it as his personal
dating app about two years ago. So, this
is sort of what I've been writing songs
about wanting to happen to me since I
was
>> Yeah.
>> a teenager.
>> Yes. So, as I said, we've only just got
this news in the last hour or so. The
pair haven't announced a wedding date
yet, but you'd imagine when that wedding
date is announced, it will be one of the
showbiz events of the decade.
