Donald Trump Congratulates Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce on Engagement

Taylor Swift announced her engagement to NFL star Travis Kelce, sparking an outpouring of congratulations from fans and celebrities. Even U.S. President Donald Trump—once a vocal critic of Swift—extended well-wishes, calling the couple “terrific” and wishing them luck

Sharing a series of photos, the pop sensation captioned the post: “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.” Fans and friends alike rushed to celebrate the news—but an unexpected figure also extended his well-wishes: U.S. President Donald Trump.

Asked for his reaction, Trump, who has often criticized Swift in the past, said: “Well, I wish them a lot of luck. He’s a great player, and I think he’s a great guy, and I think that she’s a terrific person, so I wish them a lot of luck.”

The Republican leader’s words mark a softer tone compared to his previous remarks about Swift, particularly during the 2024 election when she endorsed his rival, Kamala Harris. At the time, Trump remarked, “Well, I actually like Mrs. Mahomes much better. She’s a big Trump fan. I was not a Taylor Swift fan.

He also told Fox & Friends then, “It was only a matter of time. You couldn’t possibly endorse Biden. But she’s a very liberal person. She always endorses Democrats, and she’ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace.”

Nonetheless, Trump had praised Brittany Mahomes, wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, calling her “terrific” and “a big Trump fan.”

While the engagement announcement has fans thrilled, Swift and Kelce have yet to reveal details about their upcoming wedding.
