Mama Kelce revealed that Travis never shies away from having fun in his own way with Jason’s daughters. His brother has three daughters Wyatt, 4, Elliott, 2 and the youngest Bennett, 8 months old.

Donna even described her son, Travis, by saying, “He’s so good and animated.” Before mentioning Travis’ demeanor, Mama Kelce clarified that he loves being an uncle. However, what caught the attention most was her description of Travis Kelce as a ‘kid’, portraying him as a youthful spirit.

In the same interview, Donna shed light on how her son, Jason Kelce, tackles fatherhood. She mentioned that the Eagles center had a different upbringing with brother Travis, and he often tries to pass them on to his daughters. However, he realized over time that parenting girls was a distinct experience. Mama Kelce revealed,

“Jason is very gentle with his girls. When he’s kind of roughhousing a little bit, they’ll say, ‘Stop, it’s too much,’ and he’s like, ‘Okay, girls.’ So he’s had to take a step back.”

Donna now characterizes both her sons as the perfect dad-uncle duo for Jason’s three daughters. She highlighted how the two remain open and playful at heart, keeping good company for the kids.
