When will Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce get married and when is it time for the couple's first child? After the announcement that the couple has engaged, money is now pouring in on various betting sites in the USA about what will happen next with the American star couple.

On various so-called prediction markets such as Polymarket and Kalshi where players can bet on the probability that something will happen, the engagement news has made waves. Kalshi reports that shortly after the engagement was announced, over $80,000 has been placed on when the actual wedding will take place. At competitor Polymarket, it is currently estimated to be a 17 percent chance that the pop star will announce in 2025 that she is pregnant.

This type of gaming activity has grown in popularity in the USA and above all in connection with the presidential election 2024.
