Taylor Swift recently added a heartwarming moment to her Eras Tour in Edinburgh, Scotland. During her performance on Friday night, the pop sensation witnessed a couple getting engaged in the crowd. The proposal took place during her combined “Folklore” and “Evermore” set, and Swift couldn’t contain her excitement.
“I love performing this entire show in the sunlight because I’m pretty sure I just saw somebody get engaged over here,” Swift announced to the audience at Murrayfield Stadium. The crowd erupted in cheers as she congratulated the couple. “Congratulations, wow! I just saw that whole thing,” she exclaimed, visibly thrilled by the romantic gesture.
Swift continued to express her joy, saying, “Man, that’s amazing. Thanks for doing that at my concert; that’s a big moment!” She then pumped her arms in the air and screamed, “Yes!” as fans confirmed the engagement.
This special moment occurred during the first of three shows Swift has scheduled in Scotland. Following her Edinburgh performances, she will continue her tour across the UK, with stops in Liverpool, Cardiff, London, and Dublin before heading to other parts of Europe.
The engagement at Swift’s concert comes amid ongoing rumors about her own relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce. The couple, who went public with their romance last September, have been the subject of engagement speculation. Earlier this year, a source close to the couple revealed that they have discussed taking the next step in their relationship and plan to get engaged around their one-year anniversary in July.
Swift and Kelce have been very supportive of each other’s careers. Swift attended several of Kelce’s NFL games last season, while Kelce has traveled extensively to watch her perform. Their relationship has been a topic of interest for fans and media alike, with Kelce even fueling engagement rumors during a podcast discussion about lab-grown diamonds.
During her Time Person of the Year profile in December 2023, Swift shared insights into their relationship, explaining why they decided to go public. “I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care,” she said.
A close friend of Kelce’s recently expressed hope that wedding bells are in the couple’s near future. Patrick Regan mentioned on the “Your Day Off” podcast that he hopes the superstars will tie the knot soon.
Back at the Edinburgh concert, Swift’s excitement over the engagement was palpable. She told the audience, “You have no idea, I never get to see that, right? Because it’s, like, dark usually at night. But it’s not right now, so congratulations. Wow, I just saw that whole thing! Uh, man, that’s amazing. Thanks for doing that at my concert, that’s a big moment — huge!”
Swift’s Eras Tour has been a platform for many fans to propose to their partners. Concertgoers often choose to pop the question during songs like “Love Story” or “Champagne Problems,” which feature lyrics about engagements and weddings. Swift has always been supportive of these moments, often acknowledging them during her performances.
In addition to the engagement, Swift also paused her performance of “Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve” to ensure that audience members who needed help were attended to. She interrupted the lyrics to call for assistance and continued to play guitar while waiting for confirmation that the fans were okay.
Following her Edinburgh shows, Swift will perform in Liverpool and Cardiff before heading to London for three shows in June. She will return to London in August for five more dates. Her tour has been met with enthusiastic crowds, and Swift has tailored her setlists to match the energy of her fans.
Swift’s recent concert in Lyon, France, was another memorable event. Despite performing in the rain, she praised her fans for their energy and resilience. “You guys are absolute champions and heroes for dancing even harder when it started raining,” she told the crowd.
As Swift continues her Eras Tour, fans can expect more unforgettable moments, both on and off the stage. Her ability to connect with her audience and celebrate their special moments makes her concerts truly unique experiences.
