Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce broke the internet on Tuesday, announcing their engagement on Instagram after two years together.

The pending nuptials of the world's most famous singer-songwriter and one of the most well-known NFL players globally took social media by storm. It even drew a reaction out of Indiana Fever point guard Caitlin Clark, who is as well-known for being a Swiftie as she is for her Kansas City Chiefs fandom.

During the 2023/24 NCAA basketball season, when Clark was still playing for the University of Iowa, she was asked by Big Ten Network for her prediction as to how long Kelce and Swift would last as a couple.

In a clip that resurfaced Tuesday on social media, Clark boldly -- and confidently -- predicted that the Chiefs tight end and the "So High School" singer were going to get married. And time has proven her right.

It isn't the first time that Clark, who appeared on Kelce's New Heights podcast earlier this year, has lodged a prediction about Swift that turned out to be 100 percent correct.

Just this month, Clark claimed that Swift's appearance on New Heights would cause YouTube to crash, given the intense interest it was sure to prompt. 

"Swifts so powerful we broke the Internet," Clark posted on X after New Heights' live feed glitched entering the second hour of the Kelces' interview with Swift.

Fever and WNBA fans may now want Clark to predict when she will hit the hardwood again. Clark suffered a right groin injury on July 15 and has not played since, with Indiana in the midst of a heated race to make the playoffs.
