Travis Kelce gave a rare glimpse into how he envisions fatherhood during a recent episode of his New Heights podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother Jason Kelce.
The conversation turned to parenting advice after a listener asked how to handle “feral children” – a question that sparked some candid, if unconventional, responses from the NFL stars.
Jason, who just welcomed his fourth child with wife Kylie, joked, “Sometimes you just gotta let them figure it out. Take away the sharp stuff and don’t leave any weapons around – what more can you do?”
Travis, 35, meanwhile, offered up a less-is-more philosophy, saying: “I think to safe the house and safe the objects in the house… f**king tell them to go outside.”
The brothers eventually agreed that a little chaos might not be the worst thing: “This is just something that’s gonna sort itself out,” they said. “Lean into it. The more they fk themselves up, the more they will learn to not do stupid s**t”.

Fans have long speculated about Travis’s future with girlfriend Taylor Swift, with talk of marriage heating up after nearly two years of dating.
But the tight end has also noted his NFL commitments might delay any major personal milestones, with the 2025 season kicking off in September.
Earlier this month, Travis become an uncle again, and he and Taylor, 35, were quick to celebrate the new addition. The Super Bowl mainstay apparently has family plans of his own, but doesn’t miss out on doting on his nieces as their beloved ‘Uncle Travvy.’
Back in March, Travis’ older brother and his wife Kylie welcomed their fourth daughter, revealing that they had named her Finnley ‘Finn’ Anne Kelce after leaving the tot nameless on the birth certificate at first.
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis virtually met Finn as he and Jason video called for their New Heights podcast, complaining that Jason had “only sent one picture” – but he and his girlfriend Taylor had already congratulated the new parents.

The A-list couple sent “a huge assortment of flowers and other little gifts” to the Kelces, whom Taylor has become very close to over her time dating Travis. A source shared to Life and Style: “They are so happy for them.” They then added that with Finn “Jason and Kylie both feel their family is complete,” but teasingly joked: “Never say never, though!”
While the insider suggested that Jason and Kelce might consider adding to their brood with baby number five, Taylor and Travis are rumoured to have baby fever of their own. Towards the end of 2023, a source close to the couple claimed: “They’re already making plans for the future. He and Taylor have even talked about kids.
“Travis wants them in the next year or so, and Taylor, of course, is all in. He’s exactly the guy she’s been waiting for. He said he can see himself marrying Taylor.”
