Donald Trump to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce: 'I wish them a lot of luck'

President Donald Trump hasn't always been Taylor Swift's biggest fan, but he had warm wishes for the musician and her football player fiancee Travis Kelce on their engagement.

"I think he's a great player. I think he's a great guy," Trump said at the White House on Tuesday. "And I think that she's a terrific person, so I wish them a lot of luck."

How long have Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce been together? What to know about their timeline

A real-life rom com played out on a football field and concert stops after Kelce went to the Eras Tour in Kansas City in 2023 with a friendship bracelet that he couldn't get to the singer.

"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings," Kelce said to his brother, Jason, on their podcast at the time.

Swift reached out to him after he put her on blast on "New Heights," and the two began dating quietly until they went public when Swift attended the Chiefs vs. Bears game on Sept. 24, 2023. She attended 13 games that season culminating in Super Bowl 58 when Kansas City beat the 49ers.

Striped dress quickly sells out after Taylor Swift's engagement: Here's what she wore

All eyes were on Swift's engagement ring on Tuesday, but some Swifties also tracked down the details of her black-and-white dress, watch and other accessories.

The singer donned a striped, silk-blend dress by Ralph Lauren in her engagement photos, according to internet sleuths and reports in People and Harper's Bazaar.

"Crafted with a mulberry silk blend for an airy, crinkled hand, this striped dress pairs a smocked bodice and a flowing A-line skirt," the designer says about the $398 dress. "The slender shoulder straps can be adjusted or removed for customized versatility."

The dress, which is on sale for $319, quickly sold out in all sizes on Ralph Lauren's website. It was initially available on the designer's store in a few sizes.

Swift accessorized her look with her go-to diamond-encrusted Panthère de Cartier watch, a pair of brown sandals and her "TNT" friendship bracelet by Wove, a Christmas gift from Kelce.

The NFL star, meanwhile, wore a black cable-knit polo shirt and white pants.

So how much did those flowers cost? Kansas City florist analyzes dreamy blooms?

Swift and Kelce's engagement announcement arrived with a carousel of photos on Instagram, showing the Chiefs tight end down on one knee surrounded by lush blooms. Kansas City florist Sarah Burch of EverWild Florals was quick to weigh in, calling the arrangements "very Taylor."

"The very first thing I thought when I saw the photos was those florals are amazing, and I hope they choose us to do their wedding flowers in Kansas City," Burch said. "It's girly and feminine but elevated — timeless pinks, corals and whites that fit her personality perfectly."

The couple posed among garden roses, hydrangeas, delphiniums, ranunculuses and spray roses. Burch noted that while the lush green trees seemed to be naturally growing, the florals were "absolutely staged" with a team working in a single afternoon to create a cohesive scene.

"Any reputable florist would come in with a team of designers," the EverWild Florals owner said. "It's all achievable if you’ve got the budget."

So, how much would Swift and Kelce’s romantic backdrop cost? Burch estimated between $10,000 and $15,000 in florals alone.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce engagement overshadows cabinet meeting, interrupts Fox News coverage

For a moment, Swift and Kelce's happy news overshadowed the president.

Shortly after Swift's post, Fox News broke away from their continuous coverage of Trump's Cabinet meeting in Washington to share the news, according to The Hill.

"She does have an impeccable sense of timing," one commenter posted on X.

"Stealing Trump's spotlight is her favorite thing to do," another said.

Taylor Swift spotted at NFL games

For the 2024 season, Swift only attended home games at Arrowhead Stadium, turning the stadium's tunnel into a personal runway.

Photographers and reporters snapped pics of her looks from local vintage to designer label fashion. She attended Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans, and the heavily Eagles crowd booed her when she was shown onscreen for a few seconds.

Kelce hard launched their relationship on Instagram at the start of Kansas City training camp in July, posting a carousel of 13 photos with the caption, "Had some adventures this offseason, kept it ." The main photo showed Kelce smiling ear-to-ear in a "captain" gold anchor hat while Swift points to being his "first mate."

In a GQ profile released Aug. 12, Kelce gushed about Swift's work ethic, stamina and values.

"When there is not a camera on us, we're just two people that are in love," Kelce said in the piece. "It can be perceived as something else because of how much it is talked about and how much we are tracked whenever we do go out, but I would say that it's as normal of … It happened very organically even though from a media standpoint it was being tracked. It still happened very organically."

Love lines stringing the eras

You could say Swift has been tying the invisible string between her and the Kansas City tight end since the very beginning. In her debut album on "Mary’s Song (Oh My My My)," she sings: "I'll be eighty-seven; you'll be eighty-nine / I'll still look at you like the stars that shine / In the sky, oh my my my."

His number on the Chiefs is 87, and her album "1989" refers to the year she was born. The singer sang the song as part of a mashup to Kelce on July 6 in Amsterdam.

Kelce is the only guy Swift has changed her lyrics for, and it became a tradition on the Eras Tour. During her song "Karma" from "Midnights," she switched "karma is the guy on the screen" to "karma is the guy on the Chiefs." She performed the altered line 14 times when he was in the audience and twice when the Chiefs won a game during her concert.

Finally, cue the songs she may have written with him in mind: "The Alchemy" and "So High School" off "The Tortured Poets Department." For her 87th show in Paris, she sang, "This happens once every few lifetimes," to Kelce dancing in a suite above the stadium.

The wristbands on every concert attendees' wrist glowed bright red and the crowd roared. Swift made "The Alchemy" the closing credit song for the concert, replacing "You're On Your Own Kid." She also incorporated "So High School" into her set list for year two with moves inspired by Kelce's end zone dances. In the lyric video, the football lights show a "TS" and "TK" in light pink at 0:43.
