Before the 2024 Super Bowl, the father of NFL stars Jason and Travis Kelce gushed about Travis’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, and how much fun it was to spend time with her at Kansas City Chiefs games.
Ed said, “Every game, there are a lot of people lining up outside the front of that suite to see Taylor and meet Taylor.”
He did say that Taylor is very nice, but she can’t meet everyone who wants to meet her. He told the newspaper, “Taylor’s very gracious, but she can’t do everything.”
“And she has security guards who don’t want her to do anything,” he said. “That’s their job, and she knows better than that: “I pay these guys to keep me safe.” “I think I should give them a listen.”
“But if she could, she’d be with everyone who wants her,” Ed said of the singer.
In another part of the interview, Ed, who has said nice things about Swift before, said he knew right away that the Grammy winner was smart, grounded, and good at business.
In 2022, she got an honors doctorate of fine arts from New York University. The speech she gave that year gave him a sense of this.
“That gives you a much better idea of who this young woman is than the blurbs on social media and the gossip blogs,” he told the Times of the speech. “That has to do with celebrities.” This is more like Taylor.”
The dad of two lives in a neighborhood of Philadelphia with his son Jason, who plays football. He also said that more people know who he is since Travis and Swift’s relationship became public last year.
He told the news source, “There are a few breakfast spots in Kansas City where you don’t get the bill.” “Or someone will get you dinner.”
“It gets to a point where you get a little uneasy,” he said. That’s a nice thing to do, but hold on. “I have some cash, so I can buy lunch.”
Ed also talked about how his kids’ newfound fame has changed them: “My boys know where they’re from.” They are aware that all of this fame will soon end.
“Enjoy your time off, but remember that it won’t make you a better man.” He went on, “They fully understand that how you treat people is what’s important in this world. As long as that’s how they think, I’m a happy guy.”
