Selena Gomez is reveling in Taylor Swift's engagement news, savoring it like a melodious love tune, darling. As Travis Kelce knelt down gracefully and presented a sparkling ring to the "Karma" crooner, her lifelong BFF couldn't contain her joy at this heartwarming news. "When bestie gets engaged," Selena gushed on her Instagram Story on August 27, accompanied by enchanting photos from the garden proposal. She also cherished a poignant full-circle moment, reminiscing about Taylor's heartfelt tweet from 2009, which read, "Real love still happens sometimes. It's not merely a fairy tale conjured up in our childhood dreams. I have to believe in it, and so should you." A fan reposted this message alongside side-by-side photos of Selena and Taylor's proposals, captioning it, "16 years later," which Selena eagerly shared on her Instagram Story.
Taylor announced this magical news on August 26, posting a picture of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end's enchanting proposal in a serene garden. The Grammy winner, flaunting her dazzling diamond ring, captioned her Instagram post, "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married."
Indeed, both Taylor and Selena have reached this delightful milestone in the past year, with Taylor celebrating her own sweet engagement to Benny Blanco. The "Blank Space" singer playfully commented under Selena's engagement announcement on Instagram in December, "Yes, I will be the flower girl."
Selena, seemingly celebrating her bachelorette party in Cabo San Lucas amidst friends, isn't the only star thrilled about Taylor and Travis' engagement. Patrick Mahomes, Travis' teammate, and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, also celebrated this significant victory. "Two of the most genuine souls find love," the Sports Illustrated model penned on her Instagram Stories. "Just overjoyed for these two." Meanwhile, Patrick reshared the proposal on his Instagram Stories, adorning it with numerous red heart emojis.
Others lent their subtle support by liking Taylor's post, including Travis' brother Jason Kelce and his wife Kylie Kelce, Meghan Markle, Kate Middleton, Prince William, Maren Morris, Suki Waterhouse, and Sydney Sweeney.
Taylor's latest love chapter has her utterly captivated, as she always knew she wanted Travis by her side forever. Recalling on Travis and Jason's "New Heights" podcast on August 13, she said, "He genuinely strives to understand me in the most natural, pure, and normal way. The manner in which he could make me burst into laughter over mundane things—he's a mood elevator in everyone's life. He's a human exclamation mark." She admitted, "I thought, 'If this guy isn't crazy, this is precisely what I've been penning songs about, longing for since my teenage years.'"
