Travis Kelce has bad blood with fans who don’t respect his family. He reacts to Jason and Kylie Kelce’s interaction with an entitled fan

Travis Kelce shared his thoughts on his brother Jason Kelce and Kylie Kelce’s interaction with an “entitled” fan last month.

Travis Kelce has bad blood with fans who don’t respect his family.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end recently shared his thoughts on his brother Jason Kelce and sister-in-law Kylie Kelce‘s viral fan interaction in Sea Isle City, New Jersey, last month, which saw Kylie clap back at a woman badgering her for a photo.

“In that video of them just trying to have date night with their friends over at the shore where it’s a big family environment everybody is having a good time,” Travis explained on the June 24 episode of the Bussin’ With the Boys podcast. “And this lady just comes in trying to be entitled, telling Jason and Kylie like, ‘You have to take a picture with my kid, you’re doing it now.’ It escalated into something it never should’ve been.”

Travis noted that Jason and Kylie—who share daughters Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 3, and Bennett, 15 months—are typically overcompensating to fans until they are pushed to their limit.

“Jason and Kylie are the sweetest,” the 34-year-old gushed. “They’re the nicest people until you take it to that point. And then it’s like, ‘Now I got to choke slam you b—h.'”

In the May video, Kylie is heard telling the woman, who later apologized, “I can smell alcohol on your breath. You’re embarrassing yourself.”

And Travis defended his sister-in-law’s reaction, saying, “She has a toughness of like, ‘Don’t f–k with me.'”

Since Travis went public with his relationship with Taylor Swift last September, all eyes have been on his family—and the Kelces have discussed publicly how it has affected their lives.

As Jason explained on a podcast earlier this month, “Travis and Taylor have taken it to another level and that’s a whole other side of it.”

But Travis and his family are continuing to just shake it off.

“You want to keep things private but at the same time you’re not here to hide anything,” Travis added on the Bussin’ with the Boys podcast. “That’s my girl. That’s my lady. So it’s like, I’m proud of that.”

He emphasized, “You just don’t want to let everybody into your personal life and be able to comment on it.”

Keep reading for how Travis’ and Taylor have proved to be each other’s perfect match—chosen family and all.

No. 1: He’s a Swiftie

Long before Taylor Swift‘s attendance at the Kansas City Chief’s Sept. 24 game became one of the definitive pop culture moments of the year, Travis Kelce was an admirer of the Grammy winner.

The star tight end’s interest in Taylor was first revealed by one of his teammates in a TikTok video posted by the Chiefs in August (which, in hindsight, was when the pair were secretly dating). 

Before Travis could answer the prompt of who his celebrity crush was, wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling spilled, “Taylor Swift!”

Travis smiled at the camera before holding his finger up to his moustache, saying, “Alright now!”

Plus, Travis was just one of many celebs to attend Taylor’s record-breaking Eras Tour this summer. But more on that enchanting moment in a bit…

No. 2: He’s Not Her Usual Type (on Paper)

While he does have that daydream look in his eyes (especially when he sees Taylor on the big-screen at one of his games), Travis stands out a bit when you look back at Taylor’s dating history.

She is typically attracted to creative types, including actors (Joe Alwyn, Jake Gyllenhaal, Taylor Lautner and Tom Hiddleston) and musicians (Calvin Harris, John Mayer, Harry Styles and, most recently, Matty Healy).

But perhaps that’s why her romance with the lighthearted and cheeky athlete—who signed a four-year deal with the Chiefs worth $57 million in 2020—feels like such a refreshing option for Taylor after her six-year uber-private relationship with Joe came to an end in April 2023.

No. 3: He Publicly Pursued Her 

Looks like the eight-time Pro Bowler’s wishes came true after he all but manifested his rumored romance with the superstar through sheer will, determination and declarations of infatuation.

Travis publicly aired his failed attempt to shoot his shot and talk to Taylor when he attended the Kansas City stop on her Eras Tour July 7. As it turns out, he had a special gift for her: A friendship bracelet bearing his “number” that he hoped to give Taylor. (He wouldn’t definitely say if it was his jersey number or phone number.)

Despite his claim that he was “disappointed” he failed to meet her after the concert, Taylor confirmed to TIME that she belatedly caught his podcast pass.

“Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell,” she recalled. “We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other.”

So, that whole theory about the Sept. 24 game being their first official hang? As Taylor clarified to TIME, “We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”
