It looks like pop superstar Taylor Swift might be adding “cooking coach” to her already-impressive resume. The 34-year-old singer has reportedly been giving her NFL beau, Travis Kelce, also 34, some pointers in the homemaking department.
According to Donna Kelce, Travis’ mom, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end could use a little help when it comes to household chores. In a candid chat with Extra TV, the 71-year-old matriarch spilled the beans about her son’s domestic skills—or lack thereof.
“He can’t clean. He can’t cook… (but he’s) getting a little better,” Donna revealed, hinting at a possible influence from Swift. With a wink and a nod, she added, “I think he’s getting some help.”
The “Anti-Hero” singer is currently enjoying a brief break from her record-breaking Eras Tour, having wrapped up the European leg in mid-August. She’s set to hit the stage again in Miami come October. Meanwhile, Travis has been spotted supporting his pop star girlfriend during her performances, most notably at London’s Wembley Stadium on June 23, where the NFL star even donned a tux for a playful skit that had Swift pretending to swoon.
It’s not just mom Donna who’s been dishing on the high-profile couple. Travis’ brother, Jason Kelce, former Philadelphia Eagles center, recently opened up about the challenges that come with dating someone of Swift’s caliber.
Speaking to the “94WIP Morning Show,” Jason admitted, “It’s a lot. There’s a lot of people paying attention at all times, which is positive and negative at times.”
Jason went on to discuss the difficulties of maintaining privacy and living a normal life under the constant spotlight that accompanies Swift’s level of fame. However, he was quick to commend how she’s handled her stardom, noting, “I think that she’s built up such a fan base and a contingency and an amount of people that really, really just, like, love her that it’s really cool at the same time.”
The elder Kelce brother also confessed that neither he nor Travis has ever experienced the intense devotion that Swift commands from her fans. Reflecting on the longevity and impact of her career, Jason said, “When I think of, like, big names in music that have sustained over such a long time, and the way she has (fame), it feels like all of them kind of get to that.” He even drew a comparison to music legend Bruce Springsteen, saying, “She’s at that, like, Bruce Springsteen (level) like, tied.”
Clearly, Taylor is killing the game—and with NFL season underway, it’s her boyfriend’s time to shine, too. But who knows? Maybe on top of being a Super Bowl champ, we’ll see Travis whipping up a gourmet meal and mastering the art of folding laundry in the near future. After all, with a little help from Taylor, anything’s possible.
