Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Engaged: Legal Insights on Their Prenuptial Agreement
Real Estate:Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement announcement last month sent fans into a frenzy. The couple shared the news on Instagram, showing Kelce down on one knee in the backyard of his $6 million Kansas City mansion. According to Realtor.com, they are planning to get married at Swift’s Rhode Island estate, though the exact date remains a mystery.

With both Swift and Kelce being high-profile celebrities, legal experts predict that their wedding planning will include a prenuptial agreement. Swift, who has built a $100 million real estate portfolio, far outpaces Kelce’s property holdings, and this significant difference is expected to play a crucial role in the agreement.

Family law attorney Monica Mazzei told Realtor.com that she expects the couple to keep their properties separate. “They are each coming into the marriage with significant real estate holdings—Taylor having a lot more—so I would assume that they will have a prenup that will provide that whatever they already own coming into the marriage is going to stay their separate property,” Mazzei said.

The prenuptial agreement is likely to cover more than just real estate. Spousal support, for example, could be waived altogether. “So prenups can predetermine who is going to pay who, or there can be a waiver of support where they are both waiving the right to ask the other for support. Even though Taylor is worth a lot more than Travis, he does have a pretty significant estate,” Mazzei explained.

One of the most complicated aspects of their prenup could be the family residence, which often carries the most emotional weight. “Usually there will be a provision in the agreement that says who will get the family residence and it may be the person that already owns it, it could be the other person, or in their agreement it could say that the family residence is going to be jointly owned,” Mazzei noted.

If Swift and Kelce decide to purchase a new home together, the way they take the title will be crucial. Joint ownership can leave only three options in the event of a split: sell and divide the proceeds, or one buys the other out.

Speculation about Rhode Island as the wedding location has even caught the attention of Governor Dan McKee. “Rhode Island has some of the best wedding venues in the world, just saying,” he wrote on X after the couple’s announcement.

Taylor Swift’s 11,000-square-foot Watch Hill property, often referred to as “Holiday House,” has been the setting for her famous Fourth of July parties. Purchased in 2013 for $17.75 million, as reported by Realtor.com, the estate has hosted the likes of Gigi Hadid, Blake Lively, Selena Gomez, and Cara Delevingne.

Whether or not Rhode Island is the location where Swift and Kelce say “I do,” the news of a potential prenup has created a lot of speculation online.
