Taylor Swift has proven that she’s won over Travis Kelce’s family. On Monday, the singer attended the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s game against Tampa Bay. She brought along her mother, Andrea Swift, and Travis’ family was also in attendance. In addition to his mother, Donna, and sister-in-law Kylie, his brother, Jason Kelce, was also there. Jason is part of the Monday Night Football panel. During the game, when he wasn’t in work mode, Jason visited Taylor and the rest of the family in Travis’ suite. It was there that he and Swift shared a sweet moment.
Page Six reports that Taylor Swift met up with Travis Kelce‘s older brother, and the two embraced in a hug. This comes just days after Jason Kelce was caught on camera smashing the phone of a college student who used a homophobic slur directed toward Travis.
The incident occurred when Jason attended the Ohio State game against Penn State on Saturday. There, a Penn State fan yelled out a gay slur about Travis and even mentioned Taylor. It was then that Jason lost his cool. He grabbed the man’s phone and slammed it to the ground. He then repeated the slur himself.
Taylor Swift and Jason Kelce Share Sweet Moment During Chiefs Game
During his time on-screen while on Monday Night Football, Jason Kelce took the opportunity to address the situation. He apologized for his actions that day. Although he was defending his family, he did claim that he wasn’t happy that he met the heckler’s hate with more hate and promised to do better in the future.
“I’m not happy with anything that took place. I’m not proud of it,” Jason stated. “I chose to greet hate with hate, and I just don’t think that that’s a productive thing.”
Meanwhile, The Daily Mail reports that both Taylor and Travis were “shocked” by Jason’s actions. Although they weren’t mad, they were surprised to see him react so strongly to the comments. The insider dished that his behavior not only reflects on how much he respects Taylor and loves his brother, but that the singer has become a member of the Kelce family in his eyes.
“Taylor and Travis were both really shocked by this, considering Jason is one of the nicest guys in the world,” said the source. “This fan crossed the line. Jason will never stand for anyone insulting his family, and he views Taylor as family now.”
The display of affection between Taylor and Jason seems to indicate that all is well between the pair. Jason even went as far as to give Taylor’s mom, Andrea, a hug as well.
“That was a nice emotional moment between the pair,” one fan commented.
“Jason Kelce and Taylor Swift[‘s] hug healed my mental problems,” said another.
Neither Taylor Swift nor Travis Kelce has publicly spoken out about the incident involving Jason Kelce and the college football fan. It’s likely that they’ll remain silent as Jason has already made a public statement and seems ready to move forward. However, Jason and Travis may address the incident in an upcoming episode of their New Heights podcast. In that case, fans will get to hear the reaction of both Kelce brothers straight from the source.
