Travis Kelce is “not in on” birthdays.
Travis Kelce isn’t a fan of birthdays
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end will turn 36 on 5 October but he isn’t planning on doing much celebrating because he finds such occasions “annoying”.
Speaking to brother Jason Kelce on their New Heights podcast, he said: “It’s not a good day, it’s just an annoying day for me.
“I don’t want to get into the Grinch of birthdays but I’m just not in on birthdays.”
Jason briefly mused over the stats for Travis’ games during his birthday week but his sibling shut down the conversation.
He said: “I don’t think we should look that up, because I don’t think they’re very good.”
Meanwhile, the Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? host proposed to girlfriend Taylor Swift in August and he recently admitted he cried when he popped the question.
In an interview with Fox Sports, he said: “She can tell the story. The palms were definitely sweating.
“I’m an emotional guy, so there were a few tears here and there. But it’s been an exciting ride up to this day, and I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with her.”
Travis believes having Taylor, 35, in his life for the last two years has made him a “better person”.
He gushed: “She has brought excitement and a joy for life that made me a better man, made me a better person, and made me just that much more comfortable in who I am.”
Meanwhile, Travis explained that his life has been “fun” since he started dating Taylor despite the increased scrutiny on him.
He said in a press conference: “I would say, ever since I’ve been dating Taylor life has been fun … It’s been exciting.
“Obviously a lot more eyes and I accept that, but I’m living life. Living on a high, I guess.”
Kelce also joked about his engagement to Swift.
The three-time Super Bowl ring winner quipped: “I got one more ring from it… Well, two if we’re counting the first Super Bowl.”
