Donna Kelce on How Her Family Stays ‘Tight-Knit’ amid Travis and Jason Kelce’s ‘Very Full Lives’ (Exclusive)

“We stay together and try to help each other as much as we can,” Donna tells PEOPLE of her sons amid their respectively busy NFL schedules

Though Travis and Jason Kelce play for different teams, they were born teammates for life.

When speaking about her latest partnership with Heluva Good!, Donna Kelce tells PEOPLE exclusively about what’s kept her family so close over the years amid her sons’ respectively busy schedules as professional NFL athletes.

“We’re very, very small. We’re tight-knit,” Donna tells PEOPLE exclusively of her brood. “We stay together and try to help each other as much as we can.”

The mother of two broke down her family tree, explaining that her brother and her husband’s sister didn’t have any children. Therefore, Donna says, it was “just the two boys” — to which she admits, “growing up they used to yell at me because they didn’t have any cousins to play with on Christmas.”

Therefore, Donna and her boys always had each other’s backs. “We stay together and try to help each other as much as we can,” she says.

However, she concedes that the extend of how much family time they get to enjoy together isn’t what it used to be due to Travis’ schedule as tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs and Jason’s busy life as center for the Philadelphia Eagles with three kids.

“Obviously, football has gotten in the way and they both have their own very, very full lives,” says Donna, who’s sure to note that she’s “very, very happy that they get to enjoy the fruits of their labor.” The proud mom adds, “It’s a tough ride to get to where they are right now.”

There’s no denying that football bonds the family, despite the Kelce brothers playing for different teams. Donna’s schedule is also jam-packed, as she makes a point to travel to as many games as she can to support her sons — even if that means traveling almost 1,300 miles in less than 24 hours!

During the 2022 playoffs in January, Donna kicked off her Sunday at Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium watching Jason face off against the Buccaneers — followed by a flight bound for Kansas City, where Travis played the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Family-friendly competitions aside, Donna says her boys haven’t held anything against each other from their past. At least not “at this point,” she admits. “I think they’re each other’s biggest fan.”

Brotherly love aside, Donna shares the scoop on another thing Travis is a fan of: “Dips… he loves all kinds of dips.” Therefore, it was only natural Donna teamed up with Heluva Good! for her latest partnership.

Donna Kelce partners with Heluva Good! Dip to create a limited-edition calendar that will help you countdown to the Big Game.

HELUVA GOOD!

Donna says the snack brand “is putting together a big game countdown calendar” in the week leading up to the 2024 Super Bowl taking place on Feb. 11 in Las Vegas.

Not only will the Heluva Good! Countdown Calendar track the minutes until kickoff, but it’ll assure your tailgate timing is just right! For Donna, the Tex-Mex seven layer dip with the brand’s Jalapeño Cheddar is her favorite.
