Wondering how much Kansas Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce spent on an engagement ring for the woman who has seemingly everything?

According to Brides columnist Ellen O'Brien, Kelce's ring for Taylor Swift has an estimated cost of $550,000.

While Swift hasn't publicly commented on the cost of her sparkler, the experts note that such a piece is likely hundreds of thousands of dollars. "We estimate the price of her ring to be $550,000," Estate Diamond Jewelry representative Benjamin Khordipour says.

Kelce proposed to Swift, the couple announced in a joint Instagram post Tuesday afternoon. Kelce, 35, and Swift, 35, have been dating for two years, officially debuting their relationship when Kansas City beat the Bears on Sept. 24, 2023.

Khordipour shared how he arrived at the estimated cost of the ring at over half a million dollars.

"Taylor Swift was proposed to with a stunning elongated antique cushion-cut diamond that is approximately eight carats, F color, and VS1 clarity," says Khordipour. "The ring was handcrafted in 18k yellow gold and the center diamond is set with needle point prongs that perfectly match the antique style. Smaller diamonds and hand-engravings adorn the shoulders of her setting." He adds that his piece is his favorite celebrity sparkler of the year."

No wedding date has been released yet, but given the couple's international fame, it figures to be a massive story for months to come. Even Caitlin Clark jumped in on the action right away.

Swift recently appeared on the Kelce brothers' podcastNew Heights, and spoke about their relationship. During the episode, the singer announced the upcoming release of her 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl
