While Travis Kelce’s family was aware of his plans to propose to Taylor Swift, the timeline wasn't clear to them. When Kelce and Swift got engaged, the Chiefs tight end’s father, Ed Kelce, was at an Eagles practice session.
After the couple announced their engagement via Instagram, Ed was interviewed by the News 5 Cleveland. Ed revealed that Kelce and Swift facetimed him, along with his ex-wife Donna and the singer’s parents after the tight end’s proposal.
“They started FaceTiming me and their mother and her folks to make sure everybody knew,” Ed said. “So, to see them together is great. I was at … a [Philadelphia] Eagles practice [that] … had 60,000 people at a public practice two weeks ago on a Sunday night.”

Ed said as soon as he saw Travis and Taylor together, he understood that the couple was engaged.
