Kelce Family Mourns Loss of Ed Kelce’s Partner as Donna Kelce Offers Heartfelt Condolences

The Kelce family, beloved in the NFL world for their close-knit bond and larger-than-life presence, is grappling with a profound loss. Ed Kelce, father of Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, recently announced the passing of his partner, Maureen Maguire, at the age of 74. The heartbreaking news, shared via a touching Facebook post on August 2, 2025, has left the family and their fans in mourning, with Ed’s ex-wife, Donna Kelce, extending her condolences during this difficult time.

Maureen Maguire, described in her obituary as Ed’s “beloved friend,” passed away peacefully on August 1, 2025, surrounded by loved ones. While the obituary referred to her as a friend, Maureen was widely recognized as Ed’s girlfriend, a relationship that blossomed in recent years and brought joy to both their lives. The couple shared a vibrant connection, often seen together at NFL games cheering on Travis with the Kansas City Chiefs and embracing life’s adventures, from concerts to travels with their loyal dog, Butch. Maureen’s obituary highlighted her late-in-life love for football, a passion she discovered through her relationship with Ed and his football-famous sons. “Together, they traveled often and attended football games and concerts, and embraced every opportunity to enjoy life to the fullest,” the tribute read.

Donna Kelce, the matriarch of the Kelce family and a beloved figure among NFL fans, has reached out to her ex-husband with heartfelt support. Despite their divorce after nearly 25 years of marriage, Donna and Ed have maintained a strong friendship, rooted in their shared commitment to raising their sons, Travis and Jason. In a gesture reflecting their enduring bond, Donna expressed her condolences to Ed, offering comfort as he navigates this significant loss. The Kelce family’s unity, even in the face of personal tragedy, underscores the strength of their relationship, which has been a cornerstone of their public persona.

Ed and Donna’s story is one of resilience and mutual respect. Married in the late 1970s, they welcomed Jason in 1987 and Travis in 1989, raising their sons in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Their marriage faced challenges, and both have openly shared that they stayed together longer than they might have preferred for the sake of their children. In the 2023 Amazon Prime documentary Kelce, Ed explained, “If we had split as we probably both would have preferred, that would have been a nightmare with the logistics, getting kids where they had to be and providing all the support.” Donna echoed this sentiment, noting the difficulties of parenting two active boys while maintaining a united front. Their decision paid off, as Jason and Travis went on to become NFL superstars, culminating in the historic “Kelce Bowl” at Super Bowl LVII in 2023, where Travis’s Chiefs defeated Jason’s Eagles.

The Kelce family’s fame has only grown in recent years, propelled by Travis’s high-profile relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift and the success of the brothers’ podcast, New Heights. Ed, in particular, has become a fan favorite, often praised for his candid humor and warm support for his sons. Maureen, too, embraced the family’s spotlight, once playfully telling Taylor Swift, “Hey, that’s my boyfriend,” during a lighthearted encounter at an NFL game. This moment, recounted by Ed in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, captured Maureen’s spirited personality and her integration into the Kelce family’s public life.

As Ed mourns Maureen’s passing, the outpouring of support from fans has been overwhelming. Social media posts on X and comments on Ed’s Facebook post reflect the deep empathy felt by the Kelce family’s supporters. “So sorry, Ed. We’re sending our love and condolences,” one fan
