An entire news cycle screeched to a halt on Tuesday when Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announced their engagement in a joint Instagram post. Set to the tune of Swift’s song “So High School,” the carousel of images set off a frenzy: The world fantasized about their future NDA-heavy wedding, investigated what their potential prenup could look like, and sold out Swift’s proposal dress in record time. It’s all anyone could talk about — including, apparently, Selena Gomez.
Like the rest of the supportive Swifties, Gomez reposted Tayvis’s collab announcement to her Instagram story, writing “When bestie gets engaged” next to a heart-face emoji and adding “You’re My Best Friend” by Queen to play over the post. She also reposted a tweet Swift wrote to her in 2009 that says, “Real love still happens sometimes. It’s not just something we make up when we’re nine. I have to believe that. You do too,” alongside two images from their respective engagements. Poetic!
Although Swift was not at Gomez’s rumored bachelorette party in Cabo San Lucas, the two have been friends since they were both dating Jonas brothers back in 2008, which sounds like an incredible bonding experience. While I’m rooting for a double wedding, Swift has already offered up her services as Gomez’s flower girl. Does that mean Kelce is a shoo-in for the ring bearer?
