Speculation is mounting that Taylor Swift will marry her American footballer fiance, Travis Kelce, at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The rumour mill has been in overdrive following a series of celebrity sightings in the city and the mysterious closure of the famous arena.
Madison Square Garden, known for hosting major concerts and boxing matches, is now being tipped as the possible wedding venue for the pop star and her NFL partner. Reports suggest that trucks and vans have been seen unloading boxes labelled "garden party", and a castle is supposedly being built inside the venue to host a rehearsal dinner tonight and the wedding tomorrow. A red carpet was laid out and then quickly removed, leading to further speculation that it may be brought back for the arrival of celebrity guests.
Several famous faces have been spotted in New York, including chat show host Graham Norton and singer Ed Sheeran, adding fuel to the rumours. Even New York's mayor appeared to let slip more than he should have when he advised on a heatwave, saying: "If you happen to be getting married at Madison Square Garden, you will be staying inside and you will be staying cool."
The couple have not tried to dampen the speculation, but there is also talk that Swift herself is using her famous decoy tactics to throw people off the scent. Rumours have been circulating since Kelce proposed to Swift in his back garden in August, and the pair have been inseparable ever since. The big question remains: where will they tie the knot?
