Kylie Kelce is “cheering on” her brother-in-law Travis Kelce and his relationship with Taylor Swift. In a guest spot on the Today show Monday, the 32-year-old mother of three shared her perspective on being in the spotlight amid her husband Jason’s recent retirement news — and “Uncle Trav” dating a pop superstar.
“Ultimately, if Travis is happy, we’re happy,” Kylie told Today show hosts Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb. “We are always cheering on Uncle Trav, it’s such a treat to be able to do that on and off the field.” She added, “But it’s been amazing.”
Kylie has been showing her support for Swift since Travis began dating the “Karma” singer last summer, frequently “liking” posts on social media that have pro-Swiftie stances. Kylie and Jason officially met the Grammy winner during the Chiefs’ game against the Buffalo Bills on Jan. 21 — the playoff game where Jason famously doffed his shirt and chugged a few beers.
Kylie reflected on the moment during the interview on Today Monday. “‘Do we need to do that?’ ” she recalled joking to her husband, after he told her about his plan ahead of the game. But the two are on the same page when it comes to Jason’s next move, almost a month after announcing his retirement from the NFL after 13 seasons.
“I think nothing is off the table at this point,” Kylie said. “I think — he’s my husband so I’m biased — but he’s so good at everything he tries, it’s kinda a pain in the butt. He said nothing is off the table. I think he’s an ideas guy so I think he’s just letting them brew and see what happens.”
But with three young girls under the age of 4, Kylie added that whatever Jason does, “he needs to get out.”
“It’s not that I need him to get out of the house, he needs to get out of the house,” she joked. “I think that with three small children, I don’t think golf is gonna cut it.”
