Leave it to Taylor Swift to turn your engagement post into an Easter egg hunt. She and Travis Kelse confirmed they are married to an Instagram post captioned, “Your English teacher and Jim teacher are married.” The emojis were read as “TNT” when they nodded to initials, T, and “TNT”. During her new height appearance, Swift said he would “never plant Easter eggs” in her personal life, but her fans couldn’t help but let her go and find a clue.
Swift’s favorite number, 13
Born on December 13, 1989, Swift has long thought 13 was her lucky number. The couple’s post was exactly present at 1pm on ET. It’s 13 hours that day. The date of the announcement on August 26th also fits the pattern. Because 13 plus 13 equals 26.
Lover’s connection
The green floral setting of the garden, surrounded by pink, white and green flowers, resembles the image of Swift’s lover era, her most romance-centric album.
Kelse lock screen
Thanks to one of Kelce’s Instagram posts from July, Swifties was already on Engagement Watch. In a photo shared by Kelce, his lock screen showed Swift holding her hand.
Her new logo
In May, Swift published a letter to her website after announcing that she had bought back the master recordings of her first six albums. The letter has a very specific TS logo, and fans have now noticed that it resembles the elongated shape of her new engagement ring. At the time, it seemed like just another design choice, but now it feels like one of her most subtle hints.
Swift 3-year-old tips
Swift once asked during his 2022 appearance on the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon.
Since then, fans have pointed out (jokingly) in her “Bejeweled” video that Jack Antonoff proposed Swift in front of the flower arch.
