Donna Kelce, Travis’ mom, revealed that her son considered meeting Prince William "one of the coolest things." Despite his excitement, Travis remained humble about the experience, saying, "When you meet people like that, you know when the royals come in or Paul McCartney or Hugh Grant… somebody's in the suite, you're just like, who in this picture doesn't fit? Why am I here and why am I even allowed to talk to these individuals? It just doesn't seem right," reported Extra.
