Travis Kelce has admitted that his family are ‘loving’ their newfound fame, which came as a result of his relationship with Taylor Swift, because they are having ‘so much fun’
Travis Kelce, tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs and boyfriend of pop star Taylor Swift, has revealed his family are revelling in the spotlight brought on by the couple’s high-profile romance.
Kelce, known for his performance on the field as well as being Taylor’s other half, isn’t shy about enjoying the limelight with his family. He shared his thoughts during his appearance in a Pepsi commercial, saying: “It’s the life I chose, I guess. I have fun with it.”
Not only does he embrace the fame, but he also relishes the perks it brings, including exciting endorsements and sponsorships. He said: “It comes with the territory of wanting to do fun activities like this and signing up for cool sponsorships like this and endorsements.”
The American footballer even revealed that his mother is having a blast with the attention, saying: “Everyone’s loving it. Mama Kelce is having so much fun.” While his father might be taking some time to adjust, his brother Jason seems to be an old hand at fame: “I think my dad is slowly getting more comfortable with it, and Jason has always been a pro at it.”
Despite being a regular at Swift’s ‘Eras’ tour concerts, Kelce confessed that picking a single favourite song from the ‘Karma’ artist is impossible: “Oh, a bunch of them. They’re all my favourite, literally, every single one. You see me at a concert, you’ll see me singing them all.”
Kelce, host of ‘Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?’, truly believes fans are in his corner for success, adding: “I hope it’s because they see I’m just a genuinely good person and I love what I do and I love doing it with the people that I’m doing it with.” With a philosophy focused on spreading joy, he concluded: “I’d rather give everybody happiness and something to cheer about than otherwise.”
Travis Kelce has opened up about Taylor Swift’s growing passion for football, revealing that since they started dating a year ago, she’s become so knowledgeable that she’s even designing plays for him. During an appearance on ‘The Rich Eisen Show’, he said: “She’s a little biased and just creates plays for me. We’ll see if they can make it to Coach Reid’s office.”
He continued, explaining her enthusiasm for the sport: “She had just been so open to learning the game, she didn’t know much about the rules or anything … I think she was just curious about the profession.” Kelce also mentioned, with a hint of pride: “I know none of the plays have gotten to Coach Reid yet, but if they ever do I’ll make sure everyone knows it was her creation.”
