Why Taylor Swift is ‘intentionally slowing down’ with Travis Kelce

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are due to get married next year and insiders are spilling the couple’s surprisingly low-key plans.

“Travis has given Taylor a sense of calm,” a source told Us Weekly. “He supports her in ways that she could have never imagined, and he never expects her to perform or curate a persona around him.”

They further shared that “that kind of ease” is an experience which has allowed Swift to be “her real self.”

“It’s always light between them, and although they have serious life conversations, they really don’t argue or fight,” it was added.

Noting that holiday season is her “favourite time of the year”, the source continued to share that the pop star “has been intentionally slowing down.”

“She’s been nesting, cooking, spending time with family and carving out space to enjoy being engaged,” the insider said.

Moreover, “Taylor wants the lead-up to her wedding to Travis to feel grounded and not chaotic,” revealed the tipster, while announcing that the big day itself “won’t be a super huge wedding as far as guests count.”

Another source reported the significant change in Swift’s personality after starting her current relationship.

“Taylor used to be super type A, but she’s become more spontaneous. The armor is off. She’s trying to live a more unfiltered life,” the insider shared. “Taylor is visibly lighter and laughing a lot more. Travis gives her a fearless playfulness and the confidence to take up space unapologetically.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce had announced their engagement on August 10, while they plan to get married on June 13, 2026.
