Donna Kelce admitted that her son, Chiefs star Travis Kelce, loves the attention from his relationship with Taylor Swift.
While Kelce was a star in his regard thanks to his three-time Super Bowl-winning football prowess, his notoriety ballooned when he started dating the pop star last year.
In an interview with Extra, Donna was asked how her youngest son has handled the heightened popularity.
‘He’s always been one to be in the limelight. He loves attention. I mean it, he’s always dancing, always joking around, always having fun… he just loves life,’ she told the outlet.
‘It just seems like his life is on a trajectory that just is rising every single day,’ Donna added. ‘Every time I turn around, I’m seeing him doing something different – whether it’s on the golf course, or at a concert, or whatever, he’s just having his best life right now.’
Donna also added that her son intentionally does things to get a reaction out of people – including his controversially colorful outfits.
‘A lot of the antics that he does, whether it’s on the field or elsewhere,’ she shared. ‘Even with his clothes sometimes, he’s like, ‘I just want a smile out of people.”
Donna expressed how proud she is of her son for handling the newfound fame ‘pretty well.’
The mother of two Super Bowl winners spent a significant amount of time with the 14-time Grammy winner at Chiefs games. Speaking to Page Six, Donna talked about why she thinks her son and the singer are a good match for each other.
‘He’s a good guy. He really is. He’s good. He’s kind. He’s generous. And from what I understand, so is she,’ she told Page Six at the premiere of Travis’ new show, ‘Grotesquerie,’ in New York City on Monday.
‘I hope they’re having a good time,’ she continued.
Swift and Kelce made their relationship public over a year ago when Swift went to her first of 15 Chiefs games.
While the singer-songwriter has supported her boyfriend, Kelce also returned the favor by seeing multiple shows during Swift’s Eras Tour in Europe over the summer.
