Taylor Swift Shares A Photo Of Her Massive Engagement Ring In A Proposal Post With Travis Kelce On Instagram

If you've been on social media whatsoever over the last 24 hours, chances are, you know about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's engagement. The couple, who have been inseparable since they reportedly started dating nearly two years ago, have quickly become one of the world's most talked-about duos, and fans were thrilled to see that the Chiefs player decided to pop the question this month.

 

To celebrate the occasion, Taylor and Travis shared an Instagram post with snaps from their picturesque engagement, which happened in a garden, where they were surrounded by flowers and greenery. In addition to pictures of Travis down on one knee and the two embracing, there was an up-close picture of the Grammy winner's stunning ring, which was very large and unique.

 

Although neither she nor Travis has given explicit details as to who made the ring, what inspired it, etc., jewelry experts quickly took to the media to share their opinions. Benjamin Khordipour of Estate Diamond Jewelry told Brides that it appears to be a "vintage-inspired" ring that's a "throwback to the Victorian Era."

 

"Taylor Swift was proposed to with a stunning elongated antique cushion-cut diamond that is approximately eight carats," he explained. "We estimate the price of her ring to be $550,000."

Fans Weigh In On Taylor's Engagement Ring On Social Media

As expected, once the superstar couple shared pictures from the exciting proposal on social media, the internet practically broke, with pop culture enthusiasts sharing their opinions on the couple and fans rejoicing for the "Midnights" singer. Once the initial excitement passed, people started taking a closer look at the ring and wrote all about their thoughts on social media platforms like Reddit. Surprisingly, the reactions are fairly mixed, with some believing it's the perfect ring for Taylor's unique yet chic and evolving style, while others felt it wasn't what they were hoping for.

 

Given she's expressed her love for vintage and antique aesthetics, clothing, and home decor, some fans wrote about how much they felt the ring suited her.

 

"So often these celebrity rings are just a bonkers-sized stone in a boring setting," wrote a goldsmith and Reddit user. "Hers has a personality and an antique flair. It's still a massive diamond, but the metalwork is romantic and luxurious."

 

"It's such a beautiful vintage-style ring," commented a user. "It's such a fitting style for her."

 

"Not my personal style, but absolutely in line with what I would expect for her!" added another.

 

Other internet users were disappointed by the look of the ring, not liking the shape and size of it, and believing it's not what they would've thought she wanted.

 

"It looks like a football," joked a user, as another one compared it to a Super Bowl ring.

 

"Honestly, did not expect this one," commented a fan.

 

"I would go as far as to say that I think it's ugly," added a critic. "It reminds me of a high school class ring."

 

We're waiting on the edge of our seats for more info on not only the proposal, but also the story behind the ring, whether Travis picked it out solo or if his fiancée had a say in it. Either way, we are happy to hear the wedding bells for this iconic couple!
