KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI: Travis Kelce is prepared to move their relationship closer to exchanging vows with his popstar girlfriend, Taylor Swift. However, it is not as simple as it appears to be.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is feeling a lot of pressure, but it's not the same as winning a Super Bowl; sources revealed that Kelce would like to take things to the next level as their one-year anniversary draws near.

Travis Kelce is reportedly 'under pressure to propose' to Taylor Swift

On Friday, May 10, a source revealed to Life & Style that Kelce is "under pressure to propose" to his pop star girlfriend Swift. Furthermore, because they have been dating for about a year and "are madly in love," it has been claimed that now is the "right" time.

"The timing is right. They've been together almost a year now and they're madly in love, so it makes sense that they'd be discussing marriage," the source revealed, per Daily Mail.

The source also suggested that Kelce would be preparing a "grand gesture" for his one-knee bow. "The big moment – and the ring – need to be super special ..."

"No matter what or when he finally asks her, it will be an experience that they'll remember forever," the source said.

The three-time Super Bowl champion, who is aiming for a three-peat with the Chiefs, will return to the field for training ahead of the 2024 NFL season, while the 'Tortured Poets Department' hitmaker resumed her record-breaking Eras Tour for its second leg in Paris on May 9.

In an April interview, Kelce remarked, "The London shows, I think she's at Wembley eight times, which is mind-blowing that she can do that many shows in one stadium and fill that thing up," per OK! Magazine.

Rumors circulated about whether Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce would get married

Kelce's reportedly "under Pressure" situation arrived amid varying rumors over whether the 34-year-old couple will get married.

Chiefs Long snapper James Winchester stated that he could "definitely" see the couple getting engaged in the future, and Dave Portnoy, the owner of Barstool Sports, believed it would happen within the next 12 months.

An insider had told Page Six in January that Kelce and Swift had talked about "getting engaged on their one-year anniversary in July." However, Us Weekly claimed that the pair has no immediate plans to move things further.

Another source informed the outlet in March, "Travis and Taylor are still in the 'honeymoon' phase and the relationship is serious. They are on the same page about the future but are not rushing marriage or the next step."

Speaking in the April interview, Kelce noted: "We're both very career-driven. We both love what we do, and any chance that I can show my support to her — and knowing that she's showing me all the support in the world throughout the season — it's just been an amazing experience getting to know Tay."
