Travis Kelce's father has defended the footballer and Taylor Swift's romance after Bethenny Frankel's recent criticism.
Earlier this month, the former Real Housewives of New York The star took to her Instagram Story to express her opinion about the Kansas City Chief player and the Grammy winner's relationship. Frankel, 53, argued that Swift and Kelce were both a “peacock,” meaning they both liked being the center of attention. In Frankel's experience, there can only be one “peacock” in a romance.
“When you come to real life and get involved in children, marriage and things like that, it's not easy. Relationships take work,” she said. “And it's difficult, because Taylor Swift is certainly a peacock. So usually there can only be one peacock in a relationship.”
“It's going to be interesting. “Now it’s all fun and games,” Frankel added.
Frankel used his ex-partner as an example of how being a “peacock” didn't work.
“This person just wanted to party and take it to a 10, and many times I just wanted to take it to an eight,” he confessed about his ex-partner.
Upon learning of the comments made, Kelce's father, Ed, commented that he should call Frankel. “Who the TF is this troll?” he wrote on Facebook.
Fans of Swift and Kelce added supportive comments below Frankel's post, praising the NFL star's father.
“Just when I thought I couldn't love the Kelce family anymore, we got Ed to win again,” one person commented.
Another added: “I don't think Taylor is a peacock… I think she loves her craft, but necessarily the fanfare. I think you might find it nice to let Travis have the light… just an idea.”
A third proclaimed: “Wow people! He just won the Super Bowl, he's in a new relationship, let him enjoy his happiness.”
“Taylor will do well. You are not a relationship expert,” one passionate person noted in a comment directed at Frankel.
Kelce recently flew to Sydney to join the “Fifteen” singer on the Australian leg of her Eras tour. The 2024 Super Bowl winner supported his girlfriend from inside Accor Stadium on February 23. Swift also spent time with her boyfriend offstage at Sydney Zoo. According to a report from 9News, the couple fed the kangaroos and took sweet photos together. Kelce returned to the United States the next day.
