Kylie Kelce said her four daughters were "thrilled" to learn that Taylor Swift will become their aunt after Swift and Travis Kelce announced their engagement almost two weeks earlier.
Speaking Friday on Good Morning America, Kylie Kelce — who is married to Jason Kelce, Travis's older brother — said the girls were excited about the new family connection and that the couple and their children "could not be more excited for them and what the future holds." "We love love, and we love Taylor and Trav!" she added.
Kylie Kelce and Jason Kelce have four daughters: Wyatt, 5; Elliotte, 4; Bennett, 2; and Finn, five months. The family's warm reaction follows months of public attention on the relationship between Swift and Travis Kelce, which began attracting widespread notice after the singer and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end were first seen together and after Swift attended Chiefs games in late 2023 and early 2024.
Kylie and Jason first drew massive public reaction over their early encounter with Swift in January 2024, when the couple shared a luxury suite with the pop star at a Chiefs playoff game in Buffalo. Swift has since reflected on meeting the Kelces during an episode of her New Heights podcast last month, recalling the initial introductions and memorable moments from that first meeting.
Swift and Travis Kelce confirmed their engagement in late August, prompting an outpouring of media coverage and public interest in both families. The Kelces, who are well known in NFL circles — Jason as a retired All-Pro center — have frequently been part of coverage that merges sports and popular culture since Swift and Travis's relationship became public.
Kylie Kelce's comments on GMA provided a family-centered response to the engagement news, emphasizing the children's positive reaction and the couple's support for the newly engaged pair. The remarks add to a series of public statements and celebratory messages exchanged among family members since the announcement.
The engagement marks another chapter in a relationship that has been closely followed by fans and media, from their first public appearances together to shared family moments and the conversations those encounters have prompted across entertainment and sports coverage.
