Swift and Gomez have been friends for more than 15 years.
The duo first became friends in 2008, while they were both dating Jonas Brothers: Taylor dated Joe, while Selena was with Nick.
Selena previously remarked that her friendship with Swift was 'the best thing we got out of those relationships' during a KIIS FM UK interview in 2017.
Selena also previously called Swift her 'only friend in the industry.'
Meanwhile, in October it was reported that Gomez expressed concern about her BFF's relationship with Kelce. At the time, the multihyphenate was said to be worried pal Taylor 'is moving too fast' with the football tight end.
'Selena thinks Taylor going to games and galivanting through New York immediately after just meeting Travis is something that is very unlike her,' a source told Page Six at the time.
'Historically, Taylor’s always been super private about everything, and now with this [relationship], she’s so open about it that it’s just very odd for Selena.'
The insider indicated that Selena has been invited to go to Travis' games like some other members of Taylor's squad but she declined as she did not want to be part of the 'media frenzy.'
Taylor wasn't the only star who expressed their joy over Selena's engagement on Wednesday.

Friends star Jennifer Aniston sweetly wrote, 'HONEY!! Congratulations sweet mama!'

Gomez has been dating Blanco since June 2023, though she did not confirm the relationship until that December.
At the time, she used Instagram to confirm to fans that she'd been secretly dating the hitmaker for six months and that he was her 'absolute everything.'
Previously, the Wolves songstress dated The Weeknd, Zedd, Nick Jonas, Taylor Lautner and was linked to a number of other stars, including Zayn Malik and The Chainsmokers' Andrew Taggart.
She also famously had an on-and-off relationship with Justin Bieber, 30, that spanned eight years, before they called it quits in 2018. He is now married to model Hailey Bieber, 28, and they welcomed a baby son in August.
Before getting romantic, Gomez and Blanco were friends for over a decade and even worked on music together.
Last month, Blanco revealed that it was Gomez who made the first move.
'She asked me out. It was crazy, it was crazy. She literally asked me... like we were just talking, and then she said, "You wanna get dinner?" And I went to the dinner, and I had no idea,' he explained on Kai Cenat's Twitch stream.

Blanco claimed he wasn't 'nervous' because he already knew Gomez on a personal and professional level.
Also last month, Gomez spoke about her 'future' with Blanco during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
She told the outlet that Blanco is the one man who has made her feel the 'safest.'
'This is the safest I've ever felt in [a relationship], and I see a future with this person,' she told the outlet.
