Taylor Swift has hosted many major events in Rhode Island over the years, and Page Six is reporting her wedding to Travis Kelce may become one of them.
Page Six published an “exclusive” story on Sept. 3 saying an insider told the New York Post’s gossip column that the pair are getting married in Rhode Island, following the footsteps of several major celebrities.
“They are getting married next summer in Rhode Island. She is in a hurry to have children,” Page Six quoted a source identified only as an insider as saying.
Swift famously has a house in Watch Hill, Rhode Island. The house was the subject of her song “the last great american dynasty” and was undergoing renovations to expand the kitchen and add a bedroom earlier this year.
Page Six didn’t give any other details about the possible Rhode Island wedding.
What other celebrities have been married in Rhode Island?
As Gov. Dan McKee said on X just after the pair announced their engagement “Rhode Island has some of the best wedding venues in the world, just saying.”
Two of the biggest weddings to take place in Rhode Island were Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney in a 2019 ceremony in Newport and then-Massachusetts Sen. John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Bouvier in September 1953.
More recently, Rhode Island model and influencer Olivia Culpo and NFL star Christian McCaffrey tied the knot at Ocean House, which is within sight of Swift’s Rhode Island house.
When did Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announce their engagement?
On Tuesday, Aug. 26, the superstar announced her engagement to Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce on Instagram.
“Your English teacher and gym teacher are getting married,” Swift captioned a series of photos of the newly engaged couple in a rose garden. The garden does not look like the beachy grounds of her Westerly, Rhode Island home.
Kelce reportedly proposed in his backyard.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce relationship timeline
Swift began dating Kelce in 2023, after the football player attended the Eras Tour concert in Kansas City on July 8 that year. Kelce afterwards admitted on a “New Heights” podcast episode that he wanted to gift Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it, but he failed to meet her at the concert.
After months of speculation, Swift made their relationship official by appearing at the Chiefs game on Sept. 24, 2023, during which she sat with his mom, Donna Kelce.
The pair have been steadily dating since then, with Swift attending various Chiefs games and Kelce attending various concerts during the Eras Tour.
Will Travis Kelce move to Rhode Island?
While no move has been confirmed yet, the engagement suggests that Kelce will certainly be spending more time at his future wife’s house in the Ocean State.
The football star previously visited the Watch Hill mansion to celebrate the birthday of Swift’s longtime friend Blake Lively in August of 2024.
However, earlier this month, the couple was spotted house hunting in the eastern suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio, where Kelce is from, suggesting they may be looking to move to the Midwest.
