Taylor Swift joked about being a “third wheel” after two of her fans got engaged in front of her during her Reputation tour.
The 28-year-old singer posted a series of photos with the happy couple, known only by the names Anthony and Stephanie, ahead of her Friday night concert at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
But it turns out that Anthony had laid out his plan in a secret and anonymous Twitter account, hoping it would catch Taylor’s eye.
He explained how his and Stephanie’s love story started at a RED TOUR show in Philadelphia back in 2013.
He continued:
“We were just two swifties that decided to attend a concert together in 2013. We fell in love with each other and almost five years later, I’m going to ask her to marry me where it all started. She is my BEST FRIEND and the love of my life.
“We have spent countless hours listening to her music together. I can’t thank Taylor enough for bringing us closer
“I want to give my girlfriend the proposal of her dreams! Help me spread the word so Taylor can see this. I know Taylor can make this night unforgettable.”
Well, although Taylor didn’t quite see the messages, it looks like things worked out in Anthony’s favour.

He and Stephanie ended up getting picked to go to the backstage Rep Room, where he ended up getting down on one knee – right in front of Taylor.
The 28-year-old shared the moment on her own Instagram account, which she captioned:
“They walk into the meet and greet and he says ‘We met 5 years ago at the Red Tour’ and then…..”
