It’s tough to say goodbye forever! The Kelce family lost one significant member today. And Jason Kelce’s wife penned a beautiful, yet emotional note for her “first born child.”

Kylie Kelce was recently in the news for denying wearing the Chiefs’ gear at Super Bowl LVIII. To her fans, this depicted her loyalty and love for her belongings. Now, as her poor soul, Winn, passed away, she showed her depth of love for the cute little “God’s Gift” and was joined by Travis Kelce, Kayla Nicole, and others in her mourning.

In a recent Instagram post, Jason Kelce’s wife, Kylie Kelce, informed her fans and family that she reportedly lost her elderly dog, Winn, on Thursday. She shared photos of her dog, Winnie, lying on the ground in some images while playing with the Kelce family in others. She penned a beautiful note for the departed soul, recalling, “When I was in high school I had a folder on my desktop labeled “Gods gift to earth”. It was images of Irish Wolfhouds [sic] that I had collected from Google. I had fallen in love with the breed when I was a young and never let my fascination with them fade. It all lead me to Winnie and holy sh*t did she live up to the hype.”

Kylie continued her emotional note, saying, “She was everything I had hoped for in a wolfie and more. I lost part of my soul today, but I know she is at peace. I love you, Winn. You will always be my first born child.” Mourning her loss, her brother-in-law and Chiefs tight-end Travis Kelce, dropped his support for Kylie in her hard times. He wrote, “You have Winn an amazing life Ky!!” with crying eyes emojis. Additionally, Travis’ ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, too, shared her heartwarming message to Winnie and the Kelce family, commenting, “Winnie girl. What a sweet life she lived,” with a black heart emoji on her Instagram post.

Rest in peace, Winnie!

Apart from Winnie, Kylie and Jason Kelce have another dog of the same breed, whom they named on the “naughty list.”

Why was Dog Baloo on the ‘naughty list?’

Jason Kelce and his wife Kylie were trying to take photos for their Christmas card, but their two dogs, Winnie and Baloo, made it quite challenging. In a video shared by Minted in December 2023, Kylie mentioned that it was hard to control their dogs, especially Baloo, who she jokingly said was on the “naughty list” for stealing food.

Jason added that Baloo would eat anything he could find, even chocolate, which is unsuitable for dogs. He said, “The vets are like, ‘Hey, don’t give him chocolate.’ We’re not givin’ him chocolate, he’s choosing chocolate.” The couple humorously shared their struggles with getting their dogs to behave for the photoshoot during the Christmas home party.

Nevertheless, the couple had a perfect click at the end, as the two dogs finally posed with family, wearing reindeer headbands. With Winnie’s death, these moments will forever be in the hearts of the Kelce family.

Travis Kelce had an “awesome” time in Singapore last week, when he supported girlfriend Taylor Swift as she wrapped the latest leg of her blockbuster Eras Tour.

When discussing his world travels Wednesday on the newest installment of the “New Heights” podcast that he co-hosts with his older brother, retired Eagles center Jason Kelce, the Chiefs tight end revealed that he visited the world’s largest glass greenhouse during his time in Asia.

“It was cool as f–k,” said Kelce, who referred to himself as a “big plant guy.”

“… The way the whole thing was laid out, it was a very controlled space and everything was blooming at the same time, it was so unique and so nice. It was hot as f–k in Singapore cause it is smack dab in the middle of summer over there, so it was 100 degrees outside and then you got to go into this chilly, 70-degree room where they’re just pumping AC into these plants.”

Though Kelce didn’t call it out by name, the Flower Dome glasshouse at the Gardens by the Bay in Singapore holds the Guinness World Record as the largest glass greenhouse with a volume equivalent to 75 Olympic-size swimming pools, per the venue’s official website.

In addition to checking out the sights, Kelce “got to see two amazing shows of the Eras Tour,” which will go on hiatus until May 9, when Swift, 34, will kick off the European leg in Paris.

Kelce, who has been dating Swift since last summer, was seen dancing with friends at the pop star’s Eras Tour shows at the National Stadium, where he later met her backstage for a post-show embrace.

Before traveling to Singapore, Kelce supported Swift in Syndey, Australia, where she performed in late February.

When asked which destination he preferred, the three-time Super Bowl champion had difficulty deciding.

“I love them both, man,” Kelce told Jason, 36. “… I want to see more of Australia, I feel like I got to see a little bit more of  Singapore so I’m going to say Singapore was a little more interesting, for sure.”

Upon wrapping her shows in Singapore, Swift returned stateside for Oscars weekend.

The 14-time Grammy winner and Kelce attended an exclusive Academy Awards afterparty in Los Angeles on Sunday, Page Six confirmed.

Swift is gearing up for what’s expected to be a busy spring.

The 35-year-old has made an absolute ton of money during his career despite only having one playoff win – and Travis Kelce is as impressed as everyone else.

The Chiefs tight end and his brother Jason discussed Cousins’ move on the latest episode of their ‘New Height’s’ podcast and they seemed genuinely happy with Kirk securing another bag.

“It puts him over $400m cumulatively in his time in the NFL,” Kelce said.

“Damn good,” he joked.

He went on: “This move is such a Kirk Cousins move, man.

“I thought he was going to go to that contender type of team, or at least a considered contender, because he could go there and make them a contender because I’m pretty sure Kirk has the confidence he can do that.



“I thought he was going to go to a team that was already kind of a piece away but Kirk – he just loves the challenge of making a middle of the pack team a better team I guess.

“Obviously a lot of other things factor into where you go as a free agent. I’ve never been a f***ing free agent so I don’t know how that process even goes.

‘It looks like all he spends his money on is Kohl’s and his kids so he’s got that s*** in the bank.



Kelce slightly exaggerated Cousins’ career earnings but the point remains.

Jason Kelce loses it in latest episode of New Heights podcast after brother Travis has big celebrity mixup

Until the Falcons deal, the QB had made $231.6 million from NFL contracts throughout his 12-year career, the fourth-highest in NFL history behind only Aaron Rodgers, Matthew Stafford, and Russell Wilson.

However, with $100 million guaranteed from the Falcons, Cousins is now second on that list, behind Rodgers, and yet the only one without a Super Bowl ring.

Cousins was unveiled as a Falcons player on Wednesday where he made a shock admission that may land the team in hot water.

The former fourth-round pick has played in 150 games with 145 starts in his career.



During that time, he spent six years in Washington and six years with the Vikings, completing 66.9 per cent of his passes for 39,471 yards, 270 touchdowns and 110 interceptions.

Cousins has made Pro Bowls in three the past five seasons and many expected him to sign with a contender this offseason.

However, he says familiarity is ultimately what swung his decision in favour of Atlanta.

He cited Falcons head coach Raheem Morris, who he worked with in Washington, as a significant factor for wanting to joining the team.

“Raheem, I was around for two years in Washington and was just so impressed with him as our DB coach,” Cousins said of Morris.

Cousins enjoyed one of the best seasons of his career in 2023 until Week 8 when tore his right Achilles tendon against the Packers at Lambeau Field.

He joins an talented young Falcons offense with the likes of tight end Kyle Pitts, receiver Drake London, and running back Bijan Robinson, and will be hoping to make a splash with them in the 2024 postseason.

 

The 36-year-old Philadelphia Eagles great praised teammates, coaches, friends, and family, saving his most poignant remarks for last when he talked about his wife.

Opening up on the moment he met her, on a drunken night out in Philadelphia, he began: ‘I still remember the moment she walked through the door. The first instance is burned in my retina, it was like she glided through the opening, an aura around her. And then she started talking and I thought, “man, is this what love feels like?”

‘She was beautiful, smart, serious, yet playful. I knew it right away. I think it’s no coincidence I have enjoyed the best years of my career with Kylie by my side. Every accolade I have ever received in my life has come with her in my life.

‘She has brought the best out of me through love, devotion, support, honesty, intelligence, and of course a swift kick in the a** from time to time. She has also given me three beautiful girls in a life that increasingly brings me more fulfilment off the field than it does on. We’ve had a great run, Ky.’

Kylie herself was in an exclusive front row of the press conference, sitting alongside Jason’s mom and dad Donna and Ed, as well as brother Travis.

In the 45-minute media conference, the 36-year-old told the story of his football career, from playing at Cleveland Heights high school to the University of Cincinnati and then being drafted by the Eagles.

 

 

Jason Kelce has paid an emotional tribute to his wife Kylie, during a 45-minute retirement speech that began with him bursting into tears upon reaching the stage.

The Philadelphia Eagles legend, 36, hailed coaches, friends, teammates and family, but saved his most heartfelt words for last as he spoke about his wife.

Opening up on the moment he met her, on a drunken night out in Philadelphia, he began: ‘I still remember the moment she walked through the door. The first instance is burned in my retina, it was like she glided through the opening, an aura around her. And then she started talking and I thought, “man, is this what love feels like?”

‘She was beautiful, smart, serious, yet playful. I knew it right away. I think it’s no coincidence I have enjoyed the best years of my career with Kylie by my side. Every accolade I have ever received in my life has come with her in my life.

She has also given me three beautiful girls in a life that increasingly brings me more fulfilment off the field than it does on. We’ve had a great run, Ky.’

Kylie herself was in an exclusive front row of the press conference, sitting alongside Jason’s mom and dad Donna and Ed, as well as brother Travis.

In the 45-minute media conference, the 36-year-old told the story of his football career, from playing at Cleveland Heights high school to the University of Cincinnati and then being drafted by the Eagles.

An emotional Kelce struggled to get his words out – regularly pausing for long periods and his voice breaking as he tried to hold back the tears.

Talking about his relationship with his younger brother, Kelce said: ‘This is where it’s gonna go off the rails.

‘I won’t forget falling short to the Chiefs and the conflicting feeling of the heartbreak I had selfishly for myself and my teammates and, at the same time, the amount of pride I had in my brother. He climbed the mountain top once again.

We have a small family. No cousins. One aunt and one uncle. It was really my brother and I our whole lives. We did almost everything together. Competing, fought, laughed, cried and learned from each other.

‘We invented games, imagined ourselves as the star players of that time. We envisioned making the game winning plays, day after day. We won countless Super Bowls in our minds before ever leaving the house. And when we weren’t playing, we were at the other one’s games.

‘Butt seated in a long chair or bench, a Capri Sun in our hands that mom had packed, cheering during the game and waiting outside and afterward to celebrate a victory together or offer encouragement after a defeat.

‘There is no chance I’d be here without the bond that Travis and I share. It had made me stronger, tougher, smarter and taught me the values of cooperation, loyalty and understanding.’

 

The uncle laughed about the showdown between his brother’s two older girls that he got to witness at a family gathering. Jason Kelce’s little girls got all fired up thanks to a fun gift from Grandpa.

On the latest episode of the newly retired NFL star’s New Heights podcast with brother Travis Kelce, the two talked about another special family gathering that took place before the beloved Philadelphia Eagles center’s big announcement. The family gathered to celebrate Jason’s daughter Elliotte’s third birthday, with the 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end recalling a funny scene he watched unfold between the birthday girl and big sister Wyatt, 4.

“One of Ellie’s birthday gifts was airplane guns. It was foam airplanes that you put on top of a gun and you shoot it,” Travis explained. “When I tell you, the girls were going nuts,” he laughed, telling Jason, “It started off with Grandpa and Dad in the yard saying, ‘Hey, if you guys can hit me, you get like a popsicle’ or something.’”

Both girls were firing at Ed Kelce until, satisfied with their reaction, he rejoined some of the adults inside. “But then it turns into whoever’s in the yard is the target, right? Little Elliotte, on her birthday, runs down there to go retrieve her planes to come back and do it again, and sure enough Wyatt was locked and loaded.”

In his attempts to be a good influence, Travis told his oldest niece, “Wyatt, don’t hit your sister; be careful.” “And as I’m saying it, she keeps tracking, keeps tracking, and finally stops,” he said, mimicking Wyatt’s aim. “Boom. Right to the side of the head.” Both brothers laughed as Jason admitted, “I didn’t know it was a headshot.”

Travis told Wyatt she shouldn’t have done that, but she did a “slow turn” with a “smile” that let the uncle know there was “pure joy in going straight to the dome” with her shot. “The girl’s got it,” he said of Wyatt. “Yeah, she’s got it. And Ellie’s tough,” Jason added. “Yeah, Ellie was having a blast,” Travis laughed.

In addition to Wyatt and Elliotte, Jason, 36, and wife Kylie Kelce are also parents to daughter Bennett, 12 months. In a New Heights episode airing last month, the father of three laughed as he revealed his youngest mastered the art of yelling.

“Bennie is in a stage right now where she has found that she can yell, so she’ll just be sitting there — this is why I think we may be part Viking. And now Wyatt’s giving a response yell because she’s tired of Bennie yelling at her.” “It’s awesome,” the uncle snickered as the two sisters continued their back and forth.

 

 

Travis Kelce just made a very generous donation to two sisters who were injured in the deadly Kansas City Chiefs parade shooting earlier this week, Page Six has exclusively learned.

The tight end, 34, gifted $100,000 on Friday to the Reyes family, as they seek funds for the recovery of their two daughters, who were “celebrating with many members of their family when they were senselessly injured.”

Travis has a really big soft spot for kids and wanted to make sure their families were taken care of and were supported with whatever they needed,” a source exclusively tells Page Six.

 

The NFL superstar often works with children via his own charity, 87 and Running, which partners with the local youth organization Operation Breakthrough on his Ignition Lab and other youth STEM-focused initiatives. Kelce made the donation to the Reyes family via his charitable organization.

The Reyes family’s GoFundMe states that their two girls, whose names have not been disclosed due to patient confidentiality reasons, are both still recovering from being shot in their legs. They are 8 and 10 years old.

Recently retired Eagles legendary center Jason Kelce reacted to the Philadelphia Eagles’ signing of star running back Saquon Barkley on the latest episode of The New Heights Podcast.

“Social media has been nonstop saying, ‘Jason, are you sure you want to retire?’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah I’m pretty positive’ even though, a little bit upset Howie waited until I retired to make a move like this!” Kelce said.

“This is what I’m regretting,” he continued. “I knew when I retired that I was going to miss just an outstanding season for the Philadelphia Eagles. And it sucks, I want to be a part of this so bad. I wish I could, but it doesn’t suck in a way—hey I get to watch it and celebrate it just like everyone else so I am excited for that.”

“You have Pro Bowlers at every—f***!” Travis said. “Every starter on that Philly offense is a Pro Bowler. Every single one of them.”

Jason Kelce, 36, emotionally announced his retirement during an incredible press conference last week after a 13-year NFL career, all with the Eagles.

Jason Kelce has already been back to the Philadelphia Eagles facility in the first week of retirement, telling his brother Travis he is still waiting for the impact of quitting football to hit home.

Jason wept as he announced he was retiring from football at age 36 last week after 13 seasons and a Super Bowl win with the Philadelphia Eagles. Travis was in the audience and also cried as he turned up as a show of support.

Speaking about his first week of a brand new chapter on their New Heights podcast, Jason admitted he was not feeling much of a sense of change.

‘It feels zero different, I’ve actually still gone down the facility to get a couple weightlifting sessions in,’ Kelce said. ‘I’m a creature of habit, I don’t know.

‘I feel no different. I’m assuming once organized team activities start up, training camps and the season starts rolling around, it will really start to hit a little bit more.

 

Kelce said he had over 1,000 text messages on his phone after stepping away from the game

‘But one week in, not much different to be honest with you.’

NFL teams typically return to start the serious build-up for a season in July, meaning the older Kelce brother has plenty of time to come to terms with his decision before the practice sessions begin.

Kelce added he was overwhelmed by how many messages of support he received.

‘Dude, my phone had over 1,000 text messages,’ he said. ‘I think I got back to everybody, but it was so hard getting through it.

‘I hope I got back to you if you did reach out, I appreciate it so much. It was all very nice.’

The 36-year-old is widely anticipated to make a move into the world of sport analysis and apparently held meetings with several broadcasters around the Super Bowl in Las Vegas, where he cheered Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs to victory.

And he is also being filmed by Amazon Prime, the documentary makers behind is own ‘Kelce’ documentary last year catch his next steps on film.

Directors Don Argott and Sheena Joyce have been filming him since 2021, when he first mooted stepping away from the game, and revealed this week they have kept the cameras rolling since.

 

Jason told his brother Travis that so far, retirement life does not feel very different

‘In a way, we’ve kind of been making the Jason Kelce retirement documentary all along. I don’t know where we’re all going to end up with this [footage] but we’re honored, and really feel privileged to be included in his life like this,’ Joyce told the Philadelphia Inquirer.

She continued: ‘When he called us…all I could do was congratulate him, because I know what a difficult decision it was to come to, and how heartbreaking it is to put a period at the end of that sentence.’

Argott said filming the announcement was the high point of a day full of emotion: ‘We were spoiled to have him for 13 seasons. Jason — more than, frankly, anybody — has embodied what this city is all about in terms of sports, your attitude about sports, and how you play the game.

‘He’s the type of player [with] heart and soul, that person that we’ve always been able to count on.’

The pair say that since they began following Kelce around, they noticed that he seemed more and more ready to take that step away.

‘Jason wants to make sure he can perform at peak level at all times, and he knows that if he cannot perform at that peak level, that it’s going to eat him up,’ said Joyce. ‘That’s a really painful realization.’

 

 

Taylor Swift became a part of the Kansas City Chiefs’ narrativeor their Super Bowl LVIII run the moment she started dating Travis Kelce.

It may have seemed like a bit of a rollercoaster for NFL fans and Swifties alike, but it was an interesting cultural moment that allowed fans to see brand-new perspectives and introduce plenty of girlfriends and wives to one of the biggest sporting brands in the world.

However, all of the noise surrounding their relationship is getting in the way of the only opinion that matters, which is Donna Kelce’s. The Kelce matriarch had her thoughts on her son’s lover, and her opinion will have many Swifties and members of the Chiefs Kingdom smiling from ear to ear.

The Spun’s Andrew Holleran wrote about Donna Kelce’s thoughts on how the Kelces and Swifts have connected ever since their most popular children have gotten together under intense public scrutiny.

 

Based on her interviews, it seems like everything is going swimmingly:
According to US Weekly, Donna Kelce has grown extremely close to Taylor Swift.
“Both of their families love them as a couple and Taylor has become even more close with Travis’ mom, [Donna],” a source told Us Weekly. “Taylor has really been integrated into the family.”
The source continued: “They have fully embraced her. It’s a whole new world and chapter for her.”
Donna Kelce has previously opened up about what it’s been like to have her son dating Taylor Swift.
“I feel like I’m in an alternate universe because it’s something I’ve never been involved with before,” she joked earlier this season.
For a guy like Travis who values his mom, he must be loving the fact that Taylor managed to effortlessly win his mom over.

 

The New Heights host made it clear over the years how much his family means to him, so for his girlfriend to have won over his family so easily would make her even more lovable to him.

It’s also evident that Swift’s presence during some of the Kansas City Chiefs’ most important games gave Kelce the boost he needed to win the Super Bowl. Throughout the 2023 season, the 34-year-old caught 93 passes for 984 yards and five touchdowns.
