Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce engaged, and with a huge fortune behind them
After two years of dating, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce got engaged. Find out how much each of them is worth.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have announced their engagement after two years of dating. The news came shortly after the singer made her first appearance on the podcast New Heights and revealed the release of her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl.
“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” the couple wrote in a joint Instagram post, which featured a carousel of romantic engagement photos and a close-up of the multi-million-dollar ring.
Following the announcement, social media quickly lit up with discussions about what the engagement means for the couple’s future and why a prenuptial agreement could be crucial. While both Swift and Kelce have amassed multimillion-dollar fortunes, the singer’s net worth is significantly higher, making her financial stake in the marriage much larger.
Who is richer: Taylor Swift or Travis Kelce?
Taylor Swift officially reached billionaire status in October 2023, pushing her net worth past $1 billion. By comparison, Travis Kelce’s wealth is measured in the tens of millions, leaving the Cruel Summer singer’s fortune far ahead of his.
Swift also made history as the first artist on Forbes’ billionaire ranking whose wealth comes primarily from her music and live performances. As of August 26, 2025, Forbes’ Real-Time Billionaires list values her net worth at $1.6 billion.
Her wealth is built on roughly $800 million from royalties and touring, a music catalog worth an estimated $600 million, and around $110 million in real estate.
The record-breaking Eras Tour added a massive boost to her fortune. Running from March 17, 2023, in Glendale, Arizona, to December 8, 2024, in Vancouver, Canada, the 149-show tour grossed $2,077,618,725 and drew more than 10 million attendees, making it the most successful tour of all time.
