Summary
- Swift denies plans to quit music after marriage
- Fiancé Travis Kelce fully supports her passion for music
- Swift plans to have Ed Sheeran perform at her wedding

On October 3rd, 2025, pop superstar Taylor Swift addressed rumors that she might retire from music after her upcoming marriage to NFL player Travis Kelce. In an interview with BBC Radio 2's The Scott Mills Breakfast Show, Swift firmly stated that "that's a shockingly offensive thing to say," noting that people don't get married to quit their jobs.
Swift went on to explain that Kelce is incredibly passionate about his own work, and that their shared dedication to their respective careers is what connects them. "There's no point in time where he's going to be like, 'I'm really upset that you're still making music,'" she said.
The interview comes just days after Swift released her 12th studio album, "The Life of a Showgirl," and announced her engagement to Kelce last month. While Swift is currently focused on promoting her new album, she has already started planning her wedding, including a potential performance by her close friend Ed Sheeran.
"It would be hard to keep him from it, I think," Swift told the U.K.'s Hits Radio Breakfast Show on October 3rd. "It's like, Ed, if there's a stage, you know that you'll be on it. He knows what people want, and he wants to give people what they want."
