Wyatt Kelce is 5 years old. Elliotte (known as Ellie) is 3 years old. And Bennett (known as Bennie) is 1 year old. And yes, they're all Swifties... Wyatt and Ellie both attended the Eras Tour with Jason and Kylie in 2024.

Kylie announced that she and Jason were expecting their fourth child - another girl – back in 2024 with an adorable photo of their three daughters.

What is Travis and Jason Kelce's relationship like?

Despite playing for opposing teams in different cities, Travis and Jason's brotherly relationship is incredibly close.

The duo host their own podcast, New Heights, where they catch up on all the latest NFL news, what they've been up to and, of course, answer all the 'No Dumb Questions' that the 92 percenters send in on a weekly basis.

Travis has also previously credited Jason with inspiring his football career, and thanked him ahead of the 2024 Super Bowl for being such an inspiration.

Speaking ahead of the 2024 game, People reported he said: "He fired me up after that AFC championship game, telling me to go and get it and that we’re the best in the game. Just having his support is all I need. Seeing him at the game, seeing him get excited, that’s everything."

When the two brothers played against one another in the Super Bowl 2023, Travis called it "one of the most special moments" of his life.
