Ever since they started dating last summer, the whole world has been obsessed with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s romance. But with Taylor in the middle of her Eras tour, all that attention may be causing issues for the A-List lovebirds.
Earlier this year, rumours circulated that Travis was considering buying a ring for the 34-year-old singer. Now, with the pressure mounting, we’re told that the Kansas City Chiefs star may have cold feet.
“Both Taylor and Travis are having to deal with questions about whether they’re engaged or not on a daily basis. It’s incessant and it’s starting to get them both down. Taylor is worried that it’s putting Travis off – his jitters are becoming a major issue. The more he’s pressured, the more he withdraws – and that has her nervous,” a source tells heat.
“And, no, she’s not wedding-crazed, Travis has already said plenty of times that he would like to marry her. Taylor had her hopes up that he was going to pop the question at the Super Bowl in February. He was supposedly shopping for a ring and everything, but then he got cold feet.”
The couple were first linked last summer, following Taylor’s split from British actor Joe Alwyn. Stepping out at a football game to support her new man in September, the months since have been filled with PDAs and super-romantic getaways.
But now it seems a proposal has become the elephant in the room. “It’s turned from this romantic thing into this awkward topic ,” we’re told.
“Taylor’s ordered everyone around her to stop mentioning marriage, especially when Travis is in the room. They might think they’re being funny and it’s just harmless teasing, but Taylor’s terrified that all this pressure could sabotage things.”
The source continues, “She knows Travis isn’t the kind of guy who likes to be pushed into doing anything, and he’s going to want to ask her when the time feels right. She’s just hoping that it will be soon, because she wants to get on with the next stage of their lives.
“Taylor’s certain Travis is the ‘The One’ and she’s ready to start a family with him, but she wants to do it all in the right order.”
