KANSAS City Chiefs star Travis Kelce’s father, Ed Kelce, clapped back at reality TV star Bethenny Frankel’s criticism over the tight end’s romance with Taylor Swift.

Frankel made the comments about Travis after his Super Bowl victory over the San Francisco 49ers earlier this month.

During the big NFL game in Vegas, Travis was spotted yelling and bumping into Chiefs head coach Andy Reid while on the sidelines.

Frankel, who’s appeared on The Real Housewives of New York, spoke about the eventual three-time Super Bowl champion on Instagram.

During the clip, she wondered whether the Swift or Kelce were fits for each other after his outburst.

Bethenny said that the music icon is “certainly a peacock” and that “there usually can only be one peacock in a relationship.”

She also claimed that Travis and Taylor seemed to like “being the center of attention.”

Last Friday, Ed shared an article on Facebook about Frankel’s opinions regarding his son Travis and Swift, and wrote in the caption, “Who TF is this troll?”

Fans quickly reacted and praised the NFL father for his defense of the superstar couple, with one writing, “Tell em Ed.”

Another said, “You are the Dad America needs right now!”

And a third stated, “This just made my day.”

Ed and his wife Donna Kelce have been seen publicly with Swift since the relationship began last summer.
