LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Travis Kelce's father Ed Kelce expressed support for his son's relationship with Taylor Swift, calling them a wonderful couple.

“I think they’re a wonderful couple. I think they deserve a great friendship with each other, and if it ever goes to more than that,” Ed Kelce told Entertainment Tonight. 



 

He then added, '“They’re two wonderful people and they are enjoying each other’s company and supporting each other."

Ed calls Taylor Swift 'very genuine'

He also showered compliments on the artist behind the hit song 'Cruel Summer'.

"I think she’s very genuine," he remarked.

"She has been captivating massive audiences for more than half her life, and yet she remains remarkably grounded," Ed noted.
