Travis Kelce is making “girl uncle” a legitimate role, and his obsession with his nieces seems to be a two-way street named “Uncle Travvy Lane.”
On Wednesday’s episode of his and Jason Kelce’s podcast, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end shared a heart-melting moment with two of his three nieces. “Wyatt asked if she could say hi,” Jason told his brother, who adorably gasped, “What?” then pumped his fist while softly exclaiming, “Yes!” As the Philadelphia Eagles center lifted his eldest daughter into his lap, Travis let out a big gasp and lovingly said, “Look at you!”
“Hi Uncle Trav!” Wyatt cheerfully greeted the NFL player. He responded with a slew of questions, asking the 4-year-old, “What’s up girly? How are you doing? How was gymnastics?” We adore how invested he is in his nieces’ interests!
Jason turned to his daughter and asked, “What are you wearing? Tell Uncle Trav what you’re wearing.” She excitedly exclaimed, “A leotard!” Travis let out a big “Ooooooh!” and then asked Wyatt, “How about those pink shoes from the game? That was fun huh?” Seemingly forgetting her all-consuming fascination with A.J. Brown’s pink cleats last weekend, she paused and aloofly said, “Yeah,” which got a laugh out of her uncle.
The Eagles player’s 2-year-old, Elliotte, then wanted a turn to talk to “Travvy” too. Travis sweetly said, “Love you” as Wyatt waved and said, “Bye Uncle Trav!” While Jason was switching out his girls, the Chiefs player uttered, “She’s so adorable.”
When Jason sat his middle child on his lap, Travis crooned, “Ellieeee! Hi!” Smiling at her uncle’s enthusiastic waving, Elliotte chirped, “Hi!” As he did with Wyatt, the doting uncle asked his younger niece, “How you doing?” All she could manage to do was beam at him with the absolute cutest, cheesiest expression, which made Travis smile back and say, “You’re smiling big. You’re making my day.”
Sending her off for her nighttime routine, Jason told Elliotte, “Don’t forget your glasses.” He quickly added, “Oooh, you want to show Uncle Trav your glasses?”
“She’s stylin’?” Travis eagerly asked. “Movie star!” Jason yelled as he hauled the little girl back onto his lap, this time wearing flower-shaped sunglasses. The Chiefs tight end let out a jolly laugh, pumped his fists in the air, and gushed, “I love it!” He asked his brother, “Do you tell her when she puts on the sunglasses that she’s invisible like they do in Big Daddy?” Jason laughed and said, “I don’t think we’ve done that yet. Usually we just say, ‘Oooh, look at the movie star.'”
The Kelce family dynamic is too. Freaking. Cute. We’re just as enamored with them as they seem to be with each other!
