Travis Kelce reveals his answer to dad Ed’s concerns over ‘wild' rumors about breakup with Taylor Swift
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Travis Kelce’s father has allegedly been falling for ‘wild s**t’ online rumors about his son's romance with pop sensation Taylor Swift.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end recently joked about his dad Ed Kelce‘s reaction to all those online rumors on the ‘’Bussin’ With the Boys’ podcast.
Ed Kelce falls for rumors about son Travis' relationship with Taylor Swift
"He’ll [Ed Kelce] see some wild s**t come across and be like, ‘Hey, what the f**k is this?'” Travis Kelce, 34, said on the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast on Tuesday, June 24. “[About] something so f**king out of the blue, like, something about me and Taylor.”
According to the NFL star, Ed will ask, “Hey, you guys OK?” to which, Travis replies, “Get the f**k off Facebook, Dad. Are you f**king kidding me?”
He referred to the social networking site as Ed's "search engine," laughing off the interactions with co-hosts Will Compton and Taylor Lewan.
Just a short while ago, Travis clarified that he doesn't allow himself "get to that point" when it comes to haters, so he didn't need to turn to his family when he was feeling "down in the dumps" about internet comments.
He credited Ed with helping him achieve this mindset. “Who gives a s**t what Jim Bob or whoever the f**k is on … social media saying,” the 'Catching Kelce' alum said. “It is what it is.”
However, Travis noted, “If they’re saying something, look in the mirror and ask yourself, ‘What are you portraying for them to say this type of sh*t?’ Either it’s a fair take, an unfair take or just f**king whatever.”
The three-time Super Bowl winner explained that he has a “don’t give a f**k” attitude in his “DNA”, calling it a “Kelce trait.”
Although Travis joined the NFL in 2013, it was ten years later that he started generating significant media attention due to rumors that he was dating Swift.
Ed Kelce talks about Taylor Swift
Since his son Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift went public with their romance in September 2023, Ed has praised the pop star on multiple occasions.
Last October, he called Swift “very sweet, very charming [and] very down-to-earth” in an interview with People.
“I don’t think she got the diva memo,” he said, before adding, “She didn’t get the spoiled musician. She doesn’t know how to pull that off.”
"I’ll tell you something very special that I noticed about Taylor the first time I met her,” Ed shares.
"We're sitting in the suite, she gets up and in the front room, she gets up to go get a drink or something and she starts picking up empty bottles, cans, plates that are scattered around. Because in the suites everybody gets stuff and you empty it down wherever you can,” he added.
Ed continued, “And I'm just thinking, I don't think she got the diva memo. She didn't get the spoiled musician. She doesn't know how to pull that off. And that really to me said a whole lot.”
The father-of-two (Travis and Jason who got retired from Philadelphia Eagles) added, "She's very smart. I mean, very. That comes through right away.”
