Meet Travis Kelce's famous family who will soon be related to Taylor Swift

Donna, 73, made a name for herself during Super Bowl LVII in 2023 when she wore a custom made jersey with both Travis and Jason's numbers on the back. She quickly became known as "Mama Kelce," a calming presence in the stands cheering on both her NFL player sons.

Donna grew up in Cleveland and lived with her grandparents, parents, and brother Don until the fourth grade. Her mom died when she was just 12 years old, and she went on to be raised by her stepmother Mary.

The famous mom went on to become the first person in her family to graduate from college when she earned a bachelor's degree in radio and television from Ohio University. Donna had a lot of goals for her life and worked hard to achieve them, a quality which rubbed off on her children.

"I saw my mother reach goals that she had set for herself, go from being a teller to working all the way up in the KeyBank building," Travis explained to GQ in September 2025, when asked of similarities between Donna and his fiancé. "I've seen Taylor do the exact same thing of setting goals for herself and exceeding the expectations and really captivating the world in that regard."

Travis' dad Ed, 75, also grew up in Cleveland. He met Donna at a local bar after a day of work and were married for 28 years before they divorced. "My husband and I knew that our marriage was not working, but we stayed together for the kids," Donna explained to Glamour in 2024.

These days, Ed lives in Philadelphia. He moved there during the COVID-19 pandemic so he could be closer to Jason and his children. And while his kids and his ex-wife enjoy the spotlight, Ed likes to remain behind the scenes.

In 2025, the proud dad shared his thoughts on Travis' relationship with the "Dear John" singer. "I think it was awesome," he told People. "It was great to see them go back and forth. They're two people obviously very much in love."

Travis was not the first professional football player in the family. His older brother, Jason, 38, was drafted to the Philadelphia Eagles in 2011. During his 13 years on the team, he won one Super Bowl in 2018 against the New England Patriots. 

After retiring from the NFL in 2023, Jason turned his focus to broadcasting. He joined ESPN as a studio analyst on Monday Night Countdown and hosts his own weekly late-night talk show called, They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce.

Also Travis and Jason co-host their wildly popular podcast, New Heights, which featured an interview with Taylor in August 2025. And in May 2026, Jason revealed how the "Actually Romantic" singer influenced his brother.

"We won't use this in the episode, but I feel like Taylor's definitely expanded…” Jason began before Travis cut in and said: "Use it. We can [expletive] use it. There's nothing wrong with that."

Jason then added that Travis is a more adventurous eater after meeting Taylor. And like his little brother, Jason is a devoted partner to his wife of eight years, Kylie. The two are proud parents to four little girls, Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett, and Finnley.

Travis' sister-in-law, Kylie Kelce, 34, cannot believe she is an a-lister. Before joining the Kelce family, Kylie was a college college field hockey player, winning her conference's Rookie of the Year as a freshman.

In 2014, Kylie met Jason on the dating app Tinder, and the rest is history. The two tied the knot four years later in 2018 in an intimate ceremony in Philadelphia and quickly went on to grow their family.

Kylie shares details about motherhood and raising her four little girls on her podcast, Not Gonna Lie, which was one of the most listened to podcasts in 2025. The success of the podcast landed her as one of Sports Illustrated's "Most Influential Figures in Sports."

While the mom-of-four readily shares information about herself, she is rather tightlipped about Travis and Taylor's relationship. While she hasn't revealed much about the couple, after the two got engaged, she told listeners of Not Gonna Lie: "I am so incredibly happy for them. We are so excited that they are taking this next step. The girls are so excited to get another aunt. I am so truly happy for them, and I feel so grateful that we get to welcome Taylor into our family in a more official capacity."

Before the world knew Travis as Taylor's husband-to-be, he was Uncle Trav. The Kansas City Chiefs star has a close bond with his four nieces, who he affectionately calls "baby girl." 

During a February 2026 conversation with Kylie on her podcast, Travis shared just how steadfast his love is for his nieces. Kylie asked the NFL player "how quickly" he would sign one of his nieces' bad test grades if they needed him to.

"Well, we know I would definitely sign it. But you guys would know I'm signing it," Travis responded. "I don't think I could just be like, 'Alright.' I'm gonna let you guys know that she's failing. She's failing, and you guys need to know that. But you didn't hear it from me. If you heard it from me, that's [a] shame on you."

He continued: "Because Wy's gotta know, and I immediately went to Wyatt. I don't know why. She's just the oldest. But they gotta know that they have somebody to come to. No matter what. And I'll always be there for them."
