Travis Kelce’s dad, Ed Kelce, loves how Taylor Swift is down-to-earth at Kansas City Chiefs football games despite being a famous pop star.
“Every game there’s people crowding outside the front of that suite trying to get a glimpse of Taylor, wanting to meet Taylor,” Ed told the Los Angeles Times on Saturday, February 10 ahead of Super Bowl LVIII, which he is expected to attend. “Taylor’s very gracious, but she can’t do everything.”
He added: “And she’s got security guys who don’t want her doing anything. That’s their job and she’s smart enough to know, ‘I’m paying these guys to keep me safe. I should probably listen to them.’ But if it was up to her she’d be out there with everyone who wants her.”
Swift, 34, has been dating Ed’s youngest son, 34-year-old Travis, since summer 2023. After several months of privately getting to know one another, the 14-time Grammy winner went to Travis’ Chiefs game for the first time in September 2023.
Swift has since gone to 11 more of Travis’ football games — the Super Bowl on Sunday, February 11, which she is presumed to attend, would be lucky No. 13 — and bonded with his family from her perch in a private suite.
Swift first met Ed, who shares Travis and eldest son Jason Kelce with ex-wife Donna Kelce, ahead of one Chiefs’ home game last fall.
