As per Newsweek, the lyrics of Paper Rings from her 2019 album, Lover, especially got fans excited. The lines, “I like shiny things, but I’d marry you with paper rings” and “Darling, you’re the one I want,” were cited as evidence by Swifties that the 34-year-old was either already engaged to Kelce or was signaling her readiness for the same.

The star footballer also joined Swift on stage, gushing about her every chance he got. They were also seen enjoying Coachella with a dash of PDA. Recalling the experience he said, “I absolutely love live music. I don’t get enough of it in my life.
