Ed Kelce, father of NFL player Travis Kelce, has shared his enthusiasm for his son's upcoming wedding to singer Taylor Swift. He described Swift as "the girl next door" and a "sweetheart" in a recent interview with Fox 29 Philadelphia.

Kelce noted that Swift shares similarities with his eldest son Jason Kelce's wife, Kylie Kelce, who has been married to Jason for eight years. The nuptials are reportedly scheduled to take place in New York City over the July 3rd weekend, after the couple's nearly three-year relationship. The ceremony is anticipated to be held at Madison Square Garden, with permits filed indicating potential street closures around the venue for a production company.

Some of Travis Kelce's teammates have reportedly made reservations at a nearby hotel for the wedding dates. The couple became engaged in August 2025, two years after they began dating. Swift announced the engagement on Instagram, humorously referring to themselves as "Your English teacher and your gym teacher." IMAGE5

While the couple's families have largely remained private about the wedding details, Kylie Kelce has previously urged people to stop inquiring about the event. In an April podcast appearance, she expressed frustration with the constant questions, stating, "Nobody’s f–king telling you anything." When asked about the wedding on the "Today" show in January, she simply conveyed her excitement to celebrate.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, both 36, have been a prominent couple since they began dating. Their relationship gained significant public attention following Swift's appearance on Travis and Jason Kelce's "New Heights" podcast. IMAGE9
