How Do Travis Kelce's Parents Feel About Him Dating Taylor Swift?

From selling out stadiums across the world and topping just about every kind of music chart there is, Taylor Swift really is the woman of the hour. The musician has come a long way since she broke onto the scene, but there’s something else people love to discuss when it comes to the star: her dating life.

Of course, it’s perhaps no secret that many of Taylor’s songs have been about her heartbreaks, but what about her latest beau? That’s right; we’re talking about Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce. The pair were first spotted together in September 2023, and people have been keen to learn all about what’s going on behind closed doors ever since. If there’s one thing plenty want to do, it’s impress their partner’s mom and dad, so how do Travis Kelce’s parents feel about him dating Taylor Swift?

Donna Kelce apparently thinks Taylor Swift is “very sweet”

Apparently, finding someone who has similar characteristics to his mom is something Travis Kelce has always wanted. At least, that was the case when he appeared on the ‘Let’s Be Honest’ podcast. Here, the tight end called his mom, Donna Kelce, an “absolute angel” and wanted a girlfriend as “kind-hearted and sweet” as his mom. Apparently, Travis did just that when he started dating Taylor Swift, with a source telling People magazine that Donna “likes Taylor” as she is “very sweet and down to earth.” The twist? Donna wasn’t even a Swiftie before her son started dating the musician, with her telling People magazine it just wasn’t her type of music before.

Ed Kelce believes Taylor Swift has remained “genuine” despite her fame

While Donna Kelce might be playing things a little coy when it comes to Travis Kelce’s relationship with Taylor Swift, Ed Kelce is the complete opposite. Travis’ dad gushed to Entertainment Tonight that they are “a wonderful couple.” Ed also told People magazine that he instantly knew Taylor “[didn’t] get the diva memo” when he noticed her cleaning up when they first met in a suite. He even went as far as saying that Taylor is far from a “spoiled musician” and is instead “genuine” despite her incredible fame.

Taylor Swift is also getting along with the rest of Travis Kelce’s inner circle

It’s not just Travis Kelce who’s brought the family name to football with his brother, Jason Kelce, also being one of the stand-out stars of the field. The best bit? It appears that Taylor Swift is rapidly becoming one of the more popular people in Travis’ inner circle. When Travis appeared on the ‘New Heights’ podcast with Jason, he told his brother he thought it “was awesome” that everyone had “nothing but great things to say” about Taylor when they first met. Things get even better when you learn that Travis’ close friend and teammate Patrick Mahomes and his family have also become dedicated Swifties, with Patrick’s wife even having a secret handshake with the musician.

Some reports claim Travis Kelce’s family are worried about Taylor Swift’s fame

Just because things appear to be going great on the surface doesn’t mean that Travis Kelce dating Taylor Swift has been entirely without its issues. Jason Kelce has spoken to Vanity Fair about it all, stating that Travis dating Taylor brings “another level of stardom” that football players typically “don’t deal with.” TMZ also reports that other members of Travis’ family are worried about the level of fame the relationship has brought. According to sources, the family is “a bit startled” by the dedication of the Swifties and is “a little worried” about what it could mean for Travis going forward. Of course, being with one of the most famous women in the world means it’s pretty hard to hide from the paps.
