Jason and Travis Kelce were thrilled to see mom Donna Kelce on The Traitors season 4, even when she was launching subtle attacks against her sons’ exes.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 36, gushed about Donna’s reality TV debut with Jason, 38, during the latest episode of their podcast New Heights, on Wednesday, January 14.
“For my stamp of the week, I’m keeping it in the family. Dude, I’m going Mom all day. Did you watch this? I was so proud of her, man. She looked like she was having a blast, enjoying it all,” Travis said.
The NFL star continued to praise his mom’s talents, saying it was “cool” to see her in that moment.
Travis also gave a shout-out to Ron Funches for “sticking by her side and being kind to her” after she was revealed to be the Secret Traitor.
Although Donna was eliminated at the beginning of the show, her sons beamed with excitement at the message their mom sent to the world by being involved in these projects at her age.
The Philadelphia Eagles centre praised the mom of two for being surprisingly “more deceitful and devious than I thought Mom could ever be.”
Despite Donna’s short run at the show, her fellow contestants were scared of her star power because of her daughter-in-law, Taylor Swift’s fans, who are believed to be ruthless in their defence of the pop superstar and those related to her.
