Talk of proposals has been steadily increasing as America’s power couple approaches their first anniversary this fall.
And it looks like Kelce, 34, is ready to pop the question.
O Bosses The leader, known for being a fierce competitor, took the task of finding the right ring as seriously as ever before chasing Super Bowl glory, a source close to his entourage suggested.
“It probably took more than 40 store visits and 100 Zoom calls and meetings with jewelry experts” to find what he was looking for, the source told The US Sun.
The nine-time Pro Bowler also sought advice from close friends and people who know Swift, 34, well, according to the source.
Kelce is believed to have seen different rings in New York, Los Angeles, France, Italy and England since late last year, before finding the one on Place Vendome in the heart of Paris.
Although the process took months, it was “worth” the effort, with the insider really enjoying seeing Travis “so excited about” the search.
“He finally found the ring he’s sure she’ll love,” the source said.
