Who is Donna Kelce? Meet first mom in history to have two sons play against each other in Super Bowl
CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, OHIO: While most NFL fans already have their favorites to win, one mother of two NFL stars will witness a tough game as she will be rooting for both teams. Donna Kelce will officially become the first mother to watch her two sons play each other for the Lombardi Trophy in the Super Bowl on February 12.
Donna's two sons, Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce, are both star NFL players for their respective teams, the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs. The mother, however, faces the biggest dilemma of her life, as she will root for both of her Kelce sons, even though she knows that in the end only one will be declared the winner.

Who is Donna Kelce?
At Super Bowl LVII, Donna Kelce will officially become the first mother to have two sons play against each other on the big stage, according to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Not only that, the Super Bowl LVII marks the first Super Bowl in history to feature two Black quarterbacks and the first time that siblings play as rivals against each other.

Donna is often seen supporting her two boys at their big games, especially after both the Kelches clinched their spots in the Super Bowl on Sunday, January 29. Donna witnessed Jason's Eagles beating the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC, before Travis and the Chiefs emerged victorious from the AFC Championship game over the Cincinnati Bengals. She marked her son's victory on social media by tweeting, "'#HeightsHighandUCBearcatSuperBowl," which is a reference to both sons attending Cleveland Heights High School and the University of Cincinnati.
'Neither one of them lose very well'
The two brothers will not be facing each other on the field at the same time regardless of both playing on their respective teams. Jason from the Philadelphia Eagles is an All-Pro center and Travis from the Kansas City Chiefs is an All-Pro tight end. However, Donna claimed her hopes and dreams are coming true but also her worst fear because one of her sons will lose the game and neither of them is good at losing.

"It's your hopes and dreams coming true, but it's your worst fears," she told PJ Ziegler of FOX 8. "Somebody is going to go home a loser, and neither one of them lose very well." Meanwhile, their dad Ed joked saying, "Thank God they're both on offence, probably rules out any fist fight!"
