”We’re Tired of Your Girls, We Need a Son” Donna Kelce Tells Son, Jason to Get Another Woman Who Will Give Him a Son, as She Angrily Reacts to Kykie’s 4th Pregnancy News
“He figured out, no, it’s totally different,” Donna Kelce says of son Jason’s parenting skills in an interview with PEOPLE.
Donna Kelce knows a thing or two about parenting. In an interview promoting her partnership with Barefoot Wines, the NFL mom, 71, shared that her son Jason, who turns 36 on Sunday, “thought he could raise the girls like boys,” speaking of her three granddaughters Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 2, and Bennett, 8 months.
Donna tells PEOPLE that Jason “doesn’t come to her for parenting advice.” Instead, she explains that Jason’s wife Kylie is “very involved” and “gives him tips because obviously she was [from] an all girls family.”
“He thought he could raise the girls like boys and then he figured out, no, it’s totally different,” says Donna. The mom of two boys explained that the the Philadelphia Eagles center and Super Bowl champ had to realize “it’s not like when he grew up” with brother Travis Kelce, 34
Donna said that Jason is “very gentle” with his girls, telling PEOPLE, “when he’s kind of roughhousing a little bit, they’ll say, ‘Stop, it’s too much,’ and he’s like, ‘Okay, girls.’ So he’s had to take a step back.”
During the interview with PEOPLE, Donna also opened up about son Travis’s love of his nieces. Donna said that Travis, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end who has made global headlines this fall amid his romance with Taylor Swift, “loves” being an uncle, before clarifying that “he loves kids, period.” The NFL mom added that her younger son is “really a good uncle,” emphasizing that “he’s so good and animated.”
