According to savvy Swifties, the timing of Taylor Swift’s engagement announcement was entirely mapped out.

Sharing the news via a joint Instagram post with husband-to-be Travis Kelce on Tuesday, August 26, Swift, 35, may have chosen the day as a nod to track No. 26 on her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department — “The Prophecy.”

The song’s lyrics, which include “Don’t want money / Just someone who wants my company” within the chorus, discusses Swift’s desire to find love. The track asks, “Who do I have to speak to / About if they can redo the prophecy?”

As one TikTok user shared via a Tuesday post, “She announces her engagement on Aug 26 … what is Track 26?? The Prophecy (about being doomed in love). By saying YES to Travis, she literally broke her own ‘prophecy.’”
