NEW YORK — Travis Kelce reflected on his unforgettable proposal to Taylor Swift in his first podcast episode since the two tied the knot at Madison Square Garden over the Fourth of July weekend.

On Wednesday’s season finale of the hit “New Heights” podcast he co-hosts with big brother and fellow Super Bowl champ Jason Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 36, said it was “pretty epic” to be “ending the season with (guest) Tom Brady” and to have “start(ed) it with Taylor.” The Grammy winner, also 36, made her podcast debut on the first episode of the show’s Season 4 last Aug. 13, a nod to Swift’s favorite number.

“During that recording, the entire time, I’m planning like I’m gonna ask this woman to marry me after this,” Kelce said, laughing at the memory. “Those were probably two like really cool moments of the season. Obviously, the beginning of it, with Taylor, is one I’ll remember forever, so…”

“It’s by far the most-viewed episode of all time,” said retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason, 38.

“It was pretty fun,” said Travis.

 

Former New England Patriots quarterback Brady was among the 1,000-plus attendees at the Swift-Kelce wedding Friday and, according to CNN’s Elizabeth Wagmeister, was among the guests who departed early, as were Chris Rock, Hugh Grant, and “Good Morning America” correspondent George Stephanopoulos.

Kelce proposed to Swift immediately after their two-hour podcast episode, which they announced with a joint Instagram post on Aug. 26.

The couple, who first got together in July 2023 and publicly debuted their love story that September, reportedly planned to exchange vows June 13 at Rhode Island’s Ocean House. But they ultimately did so July 3 at the World’s Most Famous Arena, cordoning off the surrounding Midtown streets from July 2 through midday on the Fourth of July, with hundreds of New York Police Department officers posted outside.

Dedicated fans, known as Swifties, breathlessly waited outside the venue for a peek at Swift or other stars. Though no one beyond the guests has viewed the much-hyped but ultra-private wedding, artist Justin Gignac collected waste from outside MSG Friday, which he’s selling for $25 via New York City Garbage, to those who just want a piece of the iconic moment.
