“Everybody knows how close Travis is together with his family,” a separate insider told Us in January that very same 12 months. “So it really means the whole lot to him how seamlessly Taylor blends in with all of them. His family is all about just hanging out, joking and having a terrific time. It’s almost like she’s known his family eternally, and he loves that about her.”
If Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are indeed endgame, she’s seemingly already won over her in-laws. The Grammy winner and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end began dating during summer 2023.

Expanding Travis’ Food Horizons
Jason praised Swift for introducing his younger brother to recent foods and helping him turn into less of a picky eater during an October 2024 episode of the siblings’ “Recent Heights” podcast.

While talking to NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe on the Pro Bowl in February 2024, Jason gushed about how “fortunate” he was to have been introduced to the Tortured Poets Department artist.
“She’s [an] awesome, down-to-earth, real person,” he said, adding that Swift’s refreshing personality is “great to see,” especially when “someone of that caliber of stardom still remain[s] as grounded as they’re.”
In a separate interview, Donna revealed the positive characteristics and qualities Swift shares together with her youngest son.
“They’re each friendly [and] they’re each generous,” Donna gushed during an episode of iHeartRadio’s “Martha Stewart Podcast,” adding, “They’re each loving, caring individuals.”
Celebrating Her Kindness
Ed couldn’t help but gush about how “down-to-earth” Swift’s personality is while talking to the Los Angeles Times in February 2024.
“Every game there’s people crowding outside the front of that suite attempting to get a glimpse of Taylor, wanting to satisfy Taylor,” he told the outlet ahead of the Super Bowl. “Taylor’s very gracious, but she will’t do the whole lot.”
He added, “And he or she’s got security guys who don’t want her doing anything. That’s their job and he or she’s smart enough to know, ‘I’m paying these guys to maintain me protected. I should probably hearken to them.’ But when it was as much as her she’d be on the market with everyone who wants her.”
All within the Family
Not only has the Kelce family praised Swift, they’ve also had nothing but nice things to say concerning the singer’s parents, Andrea and Scott, and her younger brother, Austin.
“It’s still really, really recent, and I actually appreciate it,” Donna told Entertainment Tonight in September 2024 on the premiere of Grotesquerie, on which Travis stars. “Wonderful people, very all the way down to earth, very Midwestern. Ohio and Pennsylvania are right next to one another, so we form of understand one another, so it’s really form of nice. It appears like home.”
Cat Lovers

Jason’s wife Kylie appeared to make a subtle nod to Taylor’s love for cats during a special holiday appearance on the brothers’ “Recent Heights” podcast in December 2023.
“Here’s the deal, I told Jason that I desired to get a cat and he told me no,” she said before attempting to persuade Travis to support her in adding a furry recent member to the family. “I feel like you may like cats now. I don’t want you to send a cat, I just want you to get on my team here.”
‘Talented’
After Taylor took home seven awards on the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, Jason complimented the Valentine’s Day actress on her insane level of talent.
“She is just so talented it’s ridiculous. Not only as a singer, a songwriter, production-wise, she’s so involved in every facet of it,” the previous Philadelphia Eagles center said in September that 12 months. “When I believe of the massive names in music which have sustained [their careers] over such an extended time the way in which she has, it appears like all of them form of get to that [point]. She’s at that, like, Bruce Springsteen [level].”
Praising Her Work
While speaking exclusively to Us Weekly in April 2024, Donna called Taylor’s eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, her “best” album yet.
“I do know there’s just a few [songs] that some people think are about Travis but we’ll just see,” Donna told Us. “You realize, I’ll must ask her after I see her.“
Respecting Taylor
During an interview on The Wealthy Eisen Show in November 2024, Jason revealed that Taylor told him he could give Eras Tour tickets to any of his friends at any time when they desired to go; nevertheless, the Monday Night Countdown panelist explained why he declined her offer.
“She’s been nothing but lovely to our family, she’s a beautiful person and I don’t want that to form of be a dynamic,” adding that he never says yes to individuals who ask him for an Eras Tour hookup. “It’s a right away no. As much as Taylor has said she is going to care for anybody that I ask for.”
He continued, “She does say that, she’s very … she’s great, but I still say no to everybody. I’m not gonna be the one to impose on that. I don’t wish to put that position on the market.”
Blissful Birthday
During a December 2024 interview on the “Baskin & Phelps” podcast, Ed revealed that he was attempting to provide you with a birthday present for Taylor. “Attempting to buy Taylor a gift is like attempting to buy Jason or Travis a gift. There’s nothing they need that they don’t have already got,” he shared. “There’s nothing they’re considering they could get, that they haven’t already discovered exactly what model. You possibly can’t go that route. You’ve to look beyond that, and also you gotta dig down and provide you with something special.”
Despite Swift’s star status, Ed said he didn’t think Taylor can be impressed by how much a present costs, but relatively the sentiment behind it. “The sum of money is meaningless. You’re not gonna impress Taylor Swift with a present that costs $100,000,” he explained. “But get something that tweaks the strings of her heart that you simply spend 10 bucks on, and he or she’ll just be all gooey. You gotta find something that triggers the emotion.”
Growing Closer
“I believe, you understand, once we get past the Super Bowl, I believe it’s going to be a superb time frame for the 2 of them,” Ed said of Swift and Travs’ relationship during a February 2025 interview on Australia’s Today show before the Chiefs vs. Eagles Super Bowl game. “Without the NFL season, without the Eras Tour. Just them alone really connecting more. I believe that may only be a superb thing.”
