Donna Kelce, described the surreal moment her son was introduced to the Prince of Wales, recalling how Travis felt like an outsider in such elite company. “He said, ‘When you meet people like that royals, Paul McCartney, or Hugh Grant you just think, who doesn’t fit in this picture? Why am I here?'” she shared during the interview. Despite this, Donna praised her son for maintaining his composure, calling him “a friendly guy” who handled the encounter with grace.

Travis Kelce, one of the NFL’s biggest stars, may be used to the limelight, but even he was left feeling a bit overwhelmed when he met Prince William at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour concert at Wembley Stadium. Donna Kelce, Travis’s mother, shared her son’s reaction during an interview, revealing that despite his growing fame, meeting royalty left Travis feeling out of place.

Travis later echoed these feelings during a conversation on his New Heights podcast, where he detailed his experience meeting Prince William and his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte. “Dude, he was the coolest guy ever,” Kelce said with admiration. He also joked about his uncertainty on how to act, wondering if he should bow or simply shake hands. His brother, Jason, humorously admitted that he felt “emasculated” during the meeting, even going as far as to put his beer down to avoid appearing out of place.

As Kelce’s star continues to rise, particularly with his public relationship with Taylor Swift, these moments outside the world of football show his down-to-earth nature. Donna Kelce also touched on her son’s relationship with Swift, praising both Travis and the pop star for their kind and generous personalities. “He’s a good guy, and from what I’ve heard, she’s just as good,” Donna gushed.


For Kelce, who is no stranger to big moments on the field, meeting Prince William backstage at one of the world’s biggest concerts was a reminder that even superstars can get a little starstruck themselves.
