Travis Kelce is still No. 2 in his mother’s heart.

Beloved NFL mom Donna Kelce appeared on her sons’ Travis and Jason Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast Friday and jokingly told the Kansas City Chiefs tight end that he’s not her favorite son — “yet.”

“Ugh, the burn!” the 34-year-old NFL star responded.

Even though Donna, 71, went on to assure Travis and Jason that she loves them “both just the same,” Travis said he understands why his older brother Jason ultimately ranks supreme.

Last year, Donna Kelce confirmed she favors her other son, Philadelphia Eagles player Jason Kelce, over Travis because he has given her grandchildren.
Ahead of Super Bowl LVII — during which the NFL star brothers were facing off in the historic game — Donna admitted to Entertainment Tonight that she favors Jason, 36, because he has given her grandchildren.

Travis doesn’t currently have kids, but they’re not out of the question.

“I want to build blocks, try to be as active as I possibly can and be attentive to what they’re doing and know that I value their time and I value who they are,” she added.

Donna, also known as “Mama Kelce,” has always been on the sidelines cheering on her boys, but she rose to fame ahead of the Super Bowl this year.

Swifties were also pleased to see her getting along with the Grammy winner at a handful of Travis’ games earlier this NFL season.
