While Swifties everywhere are still reeling with excitement over Taylor Swift‘s engagement, things are just as emotional and heartwarming, close to home for Taylor Swift’s newly promoted boyfriend, and now fiancé, Travis Kelce.
The Kelce’s family is overjoyed about his engagement to Swift, celebrating not only the milestone but also the bond the singer has built with each of them.

Travis’ father, Ed Kelce, agreed, adding simply: “Taylor. There’s no question about it.”
Jason Kelce on His Kids & Taylor’s Music
Jason Kelce has also shared lighthearted stories about his children’s connection to Swift. On the Pivot Podcast, he revealed that his 3-year-old daughter Elliotte can’t stop singing Swift’s song “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.”
“There’s a line in that where ‘I’m a real tough kid. I can handle my s—,’ ” Jason recalled with a laugh. “Ellie’s 3 years old and she says, ‘I’m a real tough kid. I can handle my stuff.’ That’s all I hear on a daily basis.”
Jason has also joked about what might happen when his kids meet Swift’s beloved cats.
After admitting he told his daughters that cats are “poisonous” to avoid getting one, fans teased him online. Jason laughed, admitting, “It’s gonna be hilarious” when they finally meet “Auntie TayTay’s” pets.

She has also praised Swift’s talent after watching her Eras Tour concert film, calling it “awesome” and saying she was “just totally enthralled.”
Ed Kelce has been equally impressed by Swift’s humility. He recalled the first time he saw her tidying up in a suite at one of Travis’ games. “She starts picking up empty bottles, cans, plates that are scattered around,” he told People in 2023. “And I’m just thinking, I don’t think she got the diva memo. That really to me said a whole lot. She’s very smart. That comes through right away.”
A Couple Supported by Family & Love
The Kelces have made it clear that Swift is not just welcomed but deeply admired by the entire family. “She goes out of her way to show the whole family how much she cares for not just Travis, but all of them,” a source shared.
Their approval comes as Swift and Kelce begin their next chapter together.
The couple announced their engagement on August 26 with a joint Instagram post featuring romantic photos from a floral-filled garden proposal. “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨,” Swift captioned the post, proudly showing off her Old Mine brilliant-cut diamond ring.
