Travis Kelce was secretly planning to propose to Taylor Swift for months, Page Six has learned.<\/p>\n

A source exclusively tells us Wednesday that the Super Bowl champ began preparing to\u00a0get down on one knee<\/a>\u00a0about six to eight months ago.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re told that the timeframe was needed to make sure jewelers had enough time to make the pop star\u2019s\u00a0one-of-a-kind ring<\/a>, which \u201ctook a while.\u201d<\/p>\n

The proposal finally ended up taking place \u201ca couple of weeks ago,\u201d an insider told us Tuesday.Instagram\/ Taylor Swift<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>Although it\u2019s unclear if Swift, 35, had any input on what her dream ring would look like, our insider speculates that Kelce, also 35, likely pooled her best pals for some input.<\/p>\n

Page Six broke the news that the Kansas City Chiefs tight end asked for the \u201cLover\u201d singer\u2019s hand in marriage with an old mine brilliant-cut sparkler with Kindred Lubeck of\u00a0Artifex Fine Jewelry.<\/p>\n

The elongated stone, which is set on an engraved yellow gold band,\u00a0could be worth seven figures<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It appears the rock was finalized by early July, which is when Travis first showed his father, Ed Kelce, the ring, the patriarch recently\u00a0said on \u201cThe Jimmy & Nath Show With Emma.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

Our insider adds that Travis did not drop any Easter eggs of his own over the course of the past few months, but it appears Swift may have had an inkling that an engagement was on the horizon, as we\u2019re told the pair often talked about marriage and their futures.<\/p>\n

Ed, 74, also revealed in a separate interview Tuesday that the \u201cLove Story\u201d singer\u00a0had grown \u201cantsy\u201d\u00a0<\/a>thinking about whether or not her boyfriend of two years was going to pop the question.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was going to put it off till this week,\u201d the dad of two told Cleveland\u2019s ABC News 5.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think she was getting maybe a little antsy, but he was going to put her off till this week, to, you know, make some grand thing, to make it a big special event.\u201d<\/p>\n
