Taylor Swift may help Kylie Kelce in an unexpected way. During Friday’s episode of Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast, Kylie, 31, asked brother-in-law Travis to help her convince Jason to let her get a pet cat.
She teased that Travis “might like cats now” amid his relationship with a certain someone who happens to be a feline lover. Travis, 34, seemed on board with the idea and asked Kylie what color cat she wanted. “I don’t want you to send a cat,” she clarified. “I just want you to get on my team here.” Perhaps she can babysit Swift’s cats the next time she and Travis are on a date night if Jason doesn’t change his mind.
As fans know, Swift, 34, has an affinity for cats and owns three she publicly adores: Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson and Benjamin Button. “I’m obsessed with them,” Swift raved to Time magazine in 2019. Further explaining why she enjoys cats so much, the singer added, “They’re very dignified. They’re independent. They’re very capable of dealing with their own life.”
Pets are seemingly a touchy subject in the Kelce family, however, as Kylie laid down the law regarding animals for all to hear during her discussion with Travis. “We have an agreement here. You don’t send us anything with a heartbeat,” she explained with a straight face. “[And if you do], the next morning there will be a full petting zoo on your front lawn.” Only time will tell if Travis can convince his Philadelphia Eagles center brother to get on board with becoming a cat dad.
The 12-time Grammy winner and Travis have been dating since July and shamelessly took their romance public when the singer showed up to support her man at his Kansas City Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears on Sept. 24. Since then, she — and her family — have been back to watch the tight end play several times.
In fact, Travis revealed Swift’s younger brother, Austin Swift, provided some holiday joy at Monday’s game during Friday’s podcast episode. Austin attended the game dressed up as Santa Claus, and Travis revealed he even gifted him a VHS of his favorite football movie, 1994’s “Little Giants,” out of a classic Santa present sack.
“It was a full commit. He killed it,” Travis gushed. While the Chiefs lost against the Las Vegas Raiders on their Christmas day game, Travis said the evening was much better. “It ended well with good Christmas cheer and good people,” he said, not mentioning exactly who he was with. “That’s always gonna save Christmas no matter if you lose to the Raiders or not.”
Despite him not elaborating on his post-game Christmas festivities, an insider told the Daily Mail that the “Cruel Summer” songstress and her family spent the remainder of the day at Travis’ $6 million Kansas City, Mo., house with his father. “Seeing their families together on such a special holiday was the best gift ever for Taylor,” the source told the outlet. “She’s never had this happen before and it made the holiday the most meaningful one for her.”
