He said Taylor had been “getting antsy” waiting for the proposal because Kelce wanted to “delay” it for the sake more grand gesture. Both Ed and Taylor’s dad, Scott Swift, eventually told him not to overthink it and advised that the act of asking was the special part, not the place or the setup. Travis ended up taking their advice.Ed revealed that Kelce actually asked Scott for permission about a month before proposing. Scott jokingly asked him to hurry up, saying, “Well, come on, when are you going to get this done?” When the proposal finally happened, the couple had a glass of wine in the same garden before heading out for a special dinner. Swift, apparently sensed something was about to happen because she noticed the garden had been decorated with even more flowers than usual. That’s when her beau got down on one knee. The ring was designed by Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry. Ed revealed that Travis had shown him a picture of it weeks earlier, so the family knew the proposal was only a matter of time.Click here to follow Screen Digital on YouTube and stay updated with the latest from the world of cinema.© IE Online Media Services Pvt LtdTags:Taylor Swift
