How Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s net worth post-engagement compares to other power couples

After unveiling her upcoming new studio album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” just two weeks ago, Taylor Swift has broken the internet once again—this time, with news of her engagement to Travis Kelce. The pair’s love story reached new heights on August 26 with the public announcement on Instagram that Swift said yes after a picture perfect proposal amongst the roses.

In theory, the future nuptials of this power couple will consolidate a big sum of money, because what’s mine is yours and such (unless contracts to the contrary are signed). Let’s take a look at the pop singer and football star’s individual net worths, and how they stack up against other wealthy dynamic duos.

Taylor Swift’s net worth

The “Blank Space” singer began her professional singing career at just 14 years old when she signed a publishing deal with Sony/ATV. She was then signed by Scott Borchetta to Big Machine Records. Her self-titled debut album dropped on October 24, 2006—and the pop star hasn’t stopped creating, touring, and dropping Easter eggs for her fans since.

With 14 Grammys and 11 studio albums (with number 12 set to drop in October), Swift’s non-stop style has certainly paid off. A 2025 Forbes article listed her net worth at $1.6 billion.

In 2023, the Eras Tour pushed her from the millionaire category to billionaire status, making Swift the first woman to achieve her wealth through mainly performing, songwriting, and her extensive music catalog.

Travis Kelce’s net worth

While Swift significantly out-earns her man, Kelce’s income is nothing to turn your nose up at. According to a 2024 Forbes report, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end brings $52 million to the upcoming marriage.

In April of 2024, he signed a two-year contract extension with the Chiefs, worth $34.25 million. His popular podcast with brother Jason Kelce, “New Heights,” is reportedly under a three-year-minimum contract worth $105 million. And let’s not forget Travis’ multiple endorsement deals, which might make the 2024 figure even higher.

What is Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s combined net worth?

By simply adding up both Forbes estimates, which are probably on the conservative side, this power couple will be worth a combined total of $1.652 billion. Kelce’s contribution to this is around 3.25%.

How does Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s net worth compare to other power couples?

One power couple that has Swift and Kelce beat: Beyonce and Jay-Z. According to Forbes, Queen Bey is worth $780 million, while Jay-Z brings $2.6 billion to the table. That makes their grand total out to be $3.38 billion. So if the power couples double date, the hip-hop stars should pick up the bill.

Another more cinematic power couple who outranks Swift and Kelce is director extraordinaire Steven Spielberg and former actress Kate Capshaw. The Jaws director is worth $5.3 billion, and while Forbes doesn’t directly list Capshaw’s net worth because she has decided to pursue a more private life, she brings some wealth to the picture as well.

A more sporty power couple, Victoria and David Beckham, rank lower than Swift and Kelce. The former Spice Girl and soccer player are worth a combined sum of $514 million, according to the 2023 Sunday Times Rich List.

But even though fans know Swift is very into numerology, we can assume she’s probably not thinking as much about dollars and figures since the proposal—because after years of writing about heartbreak and failed relationships, she’s finally found the love of her life.
