Who would have thought the Kanas City Chiefs star, Travis Kelce was put on a leash in his childhood? Kelce revealed moments from his childhood with his brother Jason Kelce, where his mother put him on lease.
In a recent episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, the Chiefs’ tight end hilariously disclosed how he always used to run away as a child, so his mother actually had to put him in a harness. “She eventually got pissed and sick of us getting lost and she put me on a leash,” he said, calling himself “a leash kid.”
Growing up, the Kelce brothers, Jason and Travis were quite challenging as they called it. Their mother, Donna once shared how the two eat off an entire chicken together. In fact, once they were kicked out of school, for Jason’s part, he got into a fight with another kid, but Travis’ reason was a little wild as threw a chair at his teacher.
Travis shares a lovely bond with his mother, Donna Kelce. She is often spotted during her sons’ games cheering for them. Earlier this month, she was seen sitting together and cheering with Kelce’s love interest and pop star Taylor Swift. Last week has especially been quite busy for the Chiefs’ tight end. As during the match against the Broncos, Travis caught nine passes for 124 yards, leading to the team’s win at 19-8. Moreover, he had a special date with his rumoured girlfriend, Swift in New York City, as paparazzi spotted them holding hands.

Travis Kelce on his future with Taylor Swift
Travis and Taylor have been all over the internet lately, as they were spotted holding hands and having a date night in New York City. Swift has also attended a couple of Kelce’s games, which have been “exciting” for the Chiefs’ tight ends.

During a podcast episode with his brother Jason, Travis revealed how exciting it was for him to see Taylor cheering for him from the suite. “I just thought it was awesome how everybody in the suite had nothing but great things to say about her — the friends and family. She looked amazing and everybody was talking about her in great light,” he added.
Moving forward, Travis shared that he is still adjusting to the whole new level of attention he has been getting, mainly from the paparazzi waiting outside his house. But he has been thrilled ever since that friendship bracelet thing that he did, in the hope of meeting the iconic singer.
