Travis Kelce’s Mom Donna Gets Real About Taylor Swift’s ‘Drinking Habits’ Over Family Dinner: ‘I Like Her, But…’

February 20, 2025 – The romance between NFL star Travis Kelce and pop sensation Taylor Swift has been the talk of the town, but now it’s Travis’ mom, Donna Kelce, who’s stealing the spotlight with some candid revelations. During a recent family dinner, Donna reportedly opened up about Taylor’s “drinking habits,” offering a mix of affection and subtle concern that’s left fans wondering if there’s trouble brewing beneath the surface of this high-profile love story.

According to sources close to the Kelce family, the gathering took place last weekend at Donna’s home in Ohio, where Taylor joined Travis and his loved ones for a cozy night of food and conversation. Known for her warm and welcoming nature, Donna has been one of Taylor’s biggest cheerleaders since the couple went public in 2023. But this time, the matriarch couldn’t hold back her honest observations about the Eras Tour star’s behavior at the table.

“She was sipping wine like it was water,” a source recounted Donna saying with a laugh, noting that Taylor kept the mood light and jovial throughout the evening. “Donna kept insisting, ‘I really like her—she’s so sweet and down-to-earth,’ but then she’d pause and add, ‘I just hope this doesn’t become a thing later on.’” The comment, delivered with a mother’s protective undertone, has sparked buzz about whether Taylor’s carefree approach to a drink or two might clash with the Kelce family’s dynamic in the long run.
Donna, affectionately dubbed “Mama Kelce” by NFL fans, has never shied away from speaking her mind. During the dinner, she reportedly marveled at Taylor’s ability to fit in, complimenting her charm and how she “lights up the room.” Yet, the repeated mentions of Taylor’s drinking stood out. “She’d say, ‘Oh, I like her a lot,’ and then circle back to the wine glass, almost like she was processing it out loud,” the insider shared. “It wasn’t judgmental—just Donna being Donna, looking out for Travis.”
Taylor, 35, and Travis, 34, have been inseparable lately, with the singer cheering him on at Kansas City Chiefs games and Travis supporting her during breaks from her global tour. Their relationship has charmed fans with its blend of superstar glamour and all-American relatability, from Taylor baking cookies with Travis’ nieces to Donna sporting custom Chiefs gear emblazoned with Taylor’s name. But could something as simple as a few drinks at dinner hint at deeper differences?
Friends of the couple insist there’s no real tension—yet. “Taylor’s just having fun, and Travis loves that about her,” one pal said. “She’s not getting sloppy or anything; she’s just relaxed and enjoys a glass or two. Donna’s probably just being a mom, worrying about everything under the sun.” Still, Donna’s comments suggest she’s keeping an eye on how Taylor’s habits might play out in the future, especially as the couple navigates their whirlwind
