Travis Kelce has given an unprecedented insight into Taylor Swift's new album The Life of a Showgirl, even revealing his favorite track in the wake of their engagement.

The superstar pair have now broken the internet twice in the space of a fortnight, first with their New Heights podcast episode, and then with their engagement bombshell on Tuesday.

It was on Travis' podcast that Taylor announced the news of her 12th studio album, and the NFL star has now given Swifties some new information about the contents of her new music, which he has been listening to 'throughout the house'.

On the latest episode of New Heights, which dropped on Wednesday morning, Kelce said of his girlfriend's podcast appearance: 'Taylor gave the world two hours that she's never given them before, and a new album to get excited about.'

He then added of the music: 'I'm going to go ahead and keep poking the bear to all the Swifties... I keep listening to this album, and I know she mentioned it's going to be a lot more pop beats and everything, but it's still so poetic, and her melodies and her references, and stuff. 

'It's just so much fun to listen to man, I've been dancing throughout the house.'

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announced their surprise engagement on Instagram on Tuesday 

The news came less than a fortnight after Swift announced her new album on Kelce's podcast 

Travis' brother Jason then asked the Chiefs star if he had a favorite song on the 12-track album. 

'I'm not a politician, Jason,' he joked, before adding: 'I think Opalite might be my favorite, though. At least right now... every time it comes on, I always catch myself.'

Opalite is track 3 on the new record, sandwiched between 'Elizabeth Taylor' and 'Father Figure'. 

Travis and Taylor continue to reach new heights in their relationship, too, with the popstar revealing the news everyone had been waiting for - their engagement - on Tuesday lunchtime.

In a post to her Instagram, which has racked up a remarkable 29 million likes as of Wednesday morning, she wrote: 'Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.'

The post inevitably sent the world into meltdown, two years after they first begun dating after he watched one of her Eras Tour shows in Kansas City.

Alongside the post, Swift shared five photos of the pair's romantic engagement, which is believed to have taken place a fortnight ago in the back garden of Kelce's Missouri mansion.

Swift has become part of the Chiefs' furniture since she started dating Kelce two years ago, as she's frequently been spotted at Arrowhead Stadium (and elsewhere) to cheer him on. 

Kelce and the Chiefs' success has meant that Swift has gotten to see her beau play in the Super Bowl in consecutive years, as they beat the 49ers in early 2024 before falling to the Eagles this past February.

Kelce, who had a quiet four catches for 39 yards as the Chiefs were blown out by Philly, strongly mulled retirement following the game.

However, he ultimately elected to come back for at least one more season as he will play his 13th year for the Chiefs.

Kelce even returned to the Chiefs this summer in impressive shape as he dropped a significant amount of weight from last season.

Kansas City will face off against the Chargers in Sao Paulo to open the NFL season next Friday.
