Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce just got engaged, and America’s favorite conservative commentator Ben Shapiro is actually praising the pop star for once. The Daily Wire host took to social media yesterday to celebrate their announcement. He called it an “excellent thing” and hopes other single Americans follow their lead.
Swift and Kelce dropped the big news on Instagram with a simple message. “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” they wrote. The caption was cute and down-to-earth, showing these mega-celebrities can still act like normal people.
Shapiro’s reaction surprised many people who expected him to criticize Swift as usual. Instead, he focused on the bigger picture about American values. The conservative pundit sees their engagement as a win for traditional marriage and commitment.
This celebrity couple actually represents something good for once in Hollywood. They are choosing marriage over endless hookups and meaningless relationships. That sends a powerful message to young Americans who desperately need good role models.
The NFL star and pop princess have been together for two years now. Their romance started when Kelce tried to give Swift his phone number on a friendship bracelet during her concert tour. It took months for them to actually connect, but good things come to those who wait.
Their relationship proves that traditional courtship still works in modern America. Kelce pursued Swift like a gentleman, and she eventually gave him a chance. Now they are planning a wedding instead of just living together like so many celebrities do today.
Even President Trump weighed in on the engagement news, wishing the couple good luck. When both Trump and Shapiro agree on something, you know it matters. This engagement is bigger than just two famous people getting married.
America needs more couples like Swift and Kelce who choose commitment over chaos. Their decision to get married sends the right message to millions of fans watching their every move. Maybe this will inspire other young Americans to stop playing games and start building real relationships.
