Kelce got down on one knee and proposed to Swift almost two years after they began dating.

Fans are now desperate to know when their wedding will take place.

And the Kansas City Chiefs player might have given a clue when speaking on his podcast earlier this year.

“I actually don’t know people who’ve gotten married in the fall,” he said on a January episode of “New Heights” with brother Jason.

“All the weddings I’ve been to and all my friends always do it in the summer.”

Kelce’s Chiefs will begin their NFL season next Friday, September 5, with a game against the Los Angeles Chargers in Brazil.

The tight end, 35, is back for one more shot at glory after last season’s Super Bowl loss.

Speaking about weddings in the fall, Kelce added, “You gotta be willing to find a weekend where the team isn’t playing anybody good maybe.

“Also, if you really do have a problem with that, maybe it’s in her best interest to not have it in the fall so that she knows you’re invested in the anniversary every time it comes around.

“I’ve seen weddings in f***ing February.

“I’ve seen weddings everywhere but the fall.

“So I’m not sure if the fall was a good wedding season.”

Travis and Taylor announced their engagement on social media Tuesday.

“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” Taylor said in the caption.

The engagement announcement came just over a week before the start of the NFL season.

But Travis’ dad Ed revealed the proposal happened weeks ago.

The 74-year-old told how the proposal came at a garden in Missouri when the fan-favourite pair were on their way to a dinner reservation.

He told how the garden adorned with flowers in Lee’s Summit proved the setting for Travis when he popped the question and said: “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,’”

Ed added to ABC News 5 Cleveland, “They got out there, and that’s when he asked her, and it was beautiful.”

Speaking of the proposal itself, the proud papa shared the advice he bestowed on Travis and said, “He was going to put it off till this week.

“I think she was getting maybe a little antsy, but he was going to put her off till this week, to, you know, make some grand thing, to make it a big special event.

“And I told him repeatedly, you know, you could do it on the side of the road, do it any place that makes it a special event.

“When you get down on one knee and ask her to marry you.”
