**Taylor Swift Prioritizes Financial Security with ‘Ironclad’ Prenup Ahead of Marriage to Travis Kelce**

Taylor Swift is putting her financial future first as she prepares to marry NFL star Travis Kelce. Sources tell RadarOnline.com that the singer is “determined to protect her billions” through what’s being described as an “ironclad” prenuptial agreement.
The couple, aged 35 and 36 respectively, recently announced their engagement in a joint Instagram post that quickly went viral, amassing more than 33 million likes. While wedding details remain under wraps, insiders reveal that lawyers on both sides have already begun drafting a complex prenup designed to safeguard Swift’s $1.6 billion fortune — including her hard-won ownership of her master recordings and extensive property portfolio.
### ‘Ironclad’ Agreement to Protect Her Fortune
A source close to Swift shared, “Taylor’s been upfront from day one with Travis that being in love doesn’t mean being careless. She’s poured decades of sweat into building her career and fortune, and she wants to make sure it’s secure, no matter how head-over-heels they are. And Travis gets that completely — he admires how driven she is and believes it’s important they both stay financially independent.”
The source added, “Taylor’s team describes it as an ‘ironclad’ pre-nup because it leaves nothing out — from her music rights and trademarks to her properties, investments, and creative control. She’s seen how other stars have lost fortunes in complicated splits. For her, it’s about being practical, not pessimistic.”
### Legal Negotiations Could Delay Wedding
Legal experts suggest that negotiations over the prenup could take months and potentially delay the pair’s wedding plans. Both Swift and Kelce reportedly have top-tier attorneys involved, reflecting the size and complexity of their respective estates.
Kelce, whose net worth is estimated at $70 million, is reportedly supportive of the arrangement. He plans to protect his own business ventures, including his “New Heights” podcast and endorsement deals.
A source familiar with the talks said, “Travis is clearly doing very well for himself. He’s a top athlete with his own ventures, but he knows Taylor’s success operates on a different scale. There’s no jealousy here — he really respects how sharp she is when it comes to business.”
### Protecting Image, Brand, and Artistic Freedom
Industry insiders note that Swift’s prenup will likely include provisions safeguarding her name, image, and likeness — standard clauses for high-profile figures.
Her team wants to ensure that her public persona and creative output remain entirely under her control regardless of marital status. A legal expert commented, “When it comes to stars like Taylor Swift, the stakes go far beyond money — it’s about intellectual property, image rights, and privacy. Pre-nups of this kind usually include clauses on publicity rights, future income, and confidentiality. They function more like detailed business agreements than standard marriage contracts.”
A particularly delicate aspect of the agreement involves Swift’s artistic freedom. Known for drawing inspiration from her relationships, the singer is said to be negotiating terms that will allow her to continue writing freely while protecting both parties from public disputes.
“Taylor’s music is an extension of her identity,” said an insider. “There’s no effort to restrict her creatively — it’s simply about maintaining mutual respect between them. Her pre-nup will even include a clause allowing her to write songs about her relationship with Kelce with no risk of being taken to court for libel.”
### Mutual Privacy and Legacy Protection
Kelce’s camp is reportedly pushing for clear guidelines on privacy and public statements, including a mutual non-disclosure agreement.
“They both live under constant public scrutiny, and the last thing either of them wants is for their relationship to become tabloid material if things ever changed,” revealed a source.
Swift, who recently repurchased her master recordings from Shamrock Capital and hinted during a New Heights podcast appearance that she hopes to pass them on to future generations, views the prenup as another form of legacy protection.
“Taylor’s approach is straightforward,” shared a close friend. “She’s deeply in love, but she’s also a billionaire — and that’s a fact she can’t afford to overlook.”
