Well, you\u2019re about to \u2013 as Donna Kelce has signed up to the US Traitors. Yep, that\u2019s right, Travis Kelce\u2019s mum will be playing the game \u2013 loosely based on party game Mafia, with Faithfuls and murderous Traitors \u2013 in the famous Scottish castle, which is scheduled to be shown on TV early next year.<\/p>\n<p>So, just how will Donna fare in the spooky castle? Her famous NFL sons Travis and Jason have already started teasing her gameplan. \u2018We\u2019ve seen the evil side of Donna.<br \/>You guys haven\u2019t,\u2019 Travis joked, before assuring everyone: \u2018There is no evil side. She\u2019s the sweetest.\u2019 We\u2019d take a guess she might be a Faithful, but Donna left a more ambiguous message on Instagram, telling her 680,000 followers: \u2018Sundays were just the beginning. I raised two playmakers, but now it&#8217;s Mama&#8217;s turn.\u2019 So it sounds like she might be up for being a Traitor, too.<\/p>\n<p>Both sons will presumably be glued to the TV when it\u2019s on, as they\u2019ve previously told listeners of their New Heights podcast they\u2019re fans of the show \u2013 with Jason saying he\u2019s recently watched it with his mom. You also might see Travis on the show at some point, as he added: \u2018I just want to play the game, like it\u2019s a show that I think I would have fun with.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>As usual, season four will also see a variety of reality stars play deception, including Love Island UK\u2019s Maura Higgins, The Bachelorette\u2019s Colton Underwood and Drag Race\u2019s Monet x Change. There\u2019s also a load of contestants from the Real Housewives\u2019 franchise, including Lisa Rinna from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Candiace Dillard-Bassett from The Real Housewives of Potomac, Caroline Stanbury from The Real Housewives of Dubai, and Porsha Williams from The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Oh, and you might remember Real Housewives of New York\u2019s Dorinda Medley had a very short stint in the castle last series, and thanks to fan demand, she\u2019s being brought back too.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/06\/GettyImages-2187477919-1-scaled.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Taylor Swift and Donna Kelce&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Las Vegas Raiders v Kansas City Chiefs&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<p>Donna might have very famous football-playing sons \u2013 and an extremely famous daughter-in-law \u2013 but she\u2019s started to become more of a celebrity herself, especially since Taylor and Travis started dating back in 2023. Last year, Donna graced the cover of Glamour for their Woman of The Year photoshoot, alongside Beyonce\u2019s mom Tina Knowles, Billie Eilish and Finneas\u2019 mom Maggie Baird, and Selena Gomez\u2019 mom Mandy Teefey. And Donna, a former banker, told the publication &#8216;being a mom is probably the hardest thing I\u2019ve ever done in my life\u2019. \u2018It\u2019s so much easier to just go to work, but raising children, when they\u2019re totally dependent on you and you\u2019re trying to do the best you can with the limited resources that you have, it\u2019s the most daunting task I\u2019ve ever had to do,\u2019 she added.<\/p>\n<p>She also said fame has impacted their day-to-day lives as a family, and they have to go to extreme (and expensive) lengths to spend time together in public. &#8216;We can\u2019t go anywhere, really,&#8217; Donna revealed. &#8216;If we want to do something, you have to rent out the restaurant or the movie theatre or whatever. I do get to sneak away every once in a while, and we go to places that nobody knows where they are.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Paparazzi aside, she\u2019s used to film and TV cameras, as she\u2019s recently turned her hand to acting \u2013 starring in not one, but two of Hallmark\u2019s Christmas movies. She featured in Christmas on Call, and Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story. Why two? So as not to leave either son out \u2013 Holiday Touchdown was set in Kansas City, a nod to Travis\u2019 team, while Christmas on Call was set in Philadelphia, a nod to Jason\u2019s former team.<\/p>\n<p>Donna is far from shy, and following filming, she said being in the flicks was a \u2019dream come true\u2019. When she was asked by People if she took any advice from her son Travis, who made his acting debut in 2023 on Ryan Murphy&#8217;s Grotesquerie, she replied: \u2018No, we both kind of leave each other alone when it comes to that \u2013 we\u2019re both authentic though.\u2019<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=&#8221;custom-quote&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Libre Bodoni|||on|||||&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#333333&#8243; header_2_font_size=&#8221;40px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<h2 class=\"p1\">&#8216;he shot for the stars.&#8217;<\/h2>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<p>Donna hasn\u2019t said loads about Travis\u2019 relationship with Taylor, but last year, she did hint she had her seal of approval. In an interview with Wall Street Journal, she revealed Travis was \u2018happier than I\u2019ve seen him in a long time\u2019. \u2018God bless him,\u2019 she added. \u2018He shot for the stars!\u2019<\/p>\n<p>In the same interview, Travis himself called Taylor \u2018a genius\u2019 and \u2018incredibly \u2018hilarious\u2019. He also said he was ready to ride with the media circus the pair attracts. \u2018I\u2019m not running away from any of it&#8230; The scrutiny she gets, how much she has a magnifying glass on her, every single day, paparazzi outside her house, outside every restaurant she goes to, after every flight she gets off, and she\u2019s just living, enjoying life,\u2019 he said. \u2018When she acts like that I better not be the one acting all strange.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>And what\u2019s next for the couple? Who knows. But fans got really excited in April, when Donna liked a comment on Instagram which said: \u2018Trav&#8217;s going to make a wonderful father, just like Jason [who has four children].\u2019<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#111111&#8243; divider_position=&#8221;center&#8221; divider_weight=&#8221;2px&#8221; module_class=&#8221;custom-divider&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text module_class=&#8221;credit-texts&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;|||on|||||&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<p><b>Photo: Getty<\/b><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introducing Donna Kelce the TV star!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":11080,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-feature"],"acf":[],"modified_by":"guestgrazia","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11070","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11070"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11070\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11083,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11070\/revisions\/11083"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11080"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
