Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have announced that they are engaged after two years of dating – news an army of Swifties has been waiting to hear since the singer broke onto the scene in 2006. It's a love story for the ages (or at least the internet).
Sharing a series of Millennial-coded pictures of them staring into each other's eyes in a stylised flower garden, wearing a striped dress and a navy polo shirt, Taylor captioned the post: 'Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.' With more than 27 million likes in less than 24 hours, the news duly broke the internet.
