Taylor Swift\u2019s numerology talk hits different after her and Travis Kelce\u2019s\u00a0engagement reveal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Everyone knows that the Grammy winner\u2019s favorite number is 13 \u2014 and fans have called out multiple connections to this in the pop star\u2019s announcement timing.<\/p>\n

Notably, Swift\u00a0made her podcast debut<\/a>\u00a0with Kelce \u2014 and\u00a0announced her forthcoming album<\/a>,\u00a0\u201cThe Life of a Showgirl\u201d<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 on a \u201cNew Heights\u201d episode, which aired Aug. 13.<\/p>\n

<\/span>The couple shared proposal pics in a joint Instagram post 13 days later on the 26th, which is 13 plus 13.<\/p>\n

The date was 39 days before \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl\u201d hits streaming platforms on Oct. 3, which is 13 three times.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the upload went live at 1 p.m. ET \u2014 13:00 in military time.<\/p>\n

1:00 also resembles 100, which Kelce pointed out on \u201cNew Heights\u201d is the sum of his jersey number, 87, and 13.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>\u201cThat\u2019s numerology,\u201d Swift, 35, told listeners at the time. \u201cI love numerology. I love math stuff, I love dates. That stuff I find really fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Social media users have also pointed out that the Aug. 26 reveal could be linked to the 26th song on Swift\u2019s\u00a0\u201cTortured Poets Department\u201d album<\/a>, \u201cThe Prophecy.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the hit, the songwriter opened up about love being \u201cgone again\u201d and pleaded, \u201cI\u2019ve been on my knees \/ Change the prophecy.\u201d<\/p>\n
