Jason Kelce Reveals Why He Doesn’t Talk Business With Taylor Swift: ‘We’ve Tried to Keep a Lot of That Out’

Jason Kelce protects the family. In a new interview with the Wall Street Journal published Monday (Dec. 22) about his investment in the hot sauce brand Hank Sauce, the former NFL center and current Monday Night Football commentator as well as New Heights cohost says he doesn’t really talk business with his very famous sister-in-law-to-be, Taylor Swift, who is marrying his brother, Travis Kelce.

“We’ve tried to keep a lot of that out of the relationship. I just enjoy her being my brother’s soon-to-be wife, and aunt to my kids, and we try to leave that relationship where it should be, there,” he says. (And indeed, cameras caught Swift in aunt mode at a recent Kansas City Chiefs game with Jason’s daughters – he and wife Kylie Kelce are parents to Wyatt, 6, Elliotte, 4, Bennett, 2, and Finnley, 8 months.)

That doesn’t mean he doesn’t hold her up as an example. “Watching her operate, watching her savviness in getting her entire music catalogue back, watching how she has toured the globe while also writing an entire new album, the level at which she takes control over a lot of different aspects but also allowing people to be experts in their own right, I think that a lot of that stuff is fun to watch,” he explains.

As for the upcoming wedding, Kelce says he’s a different kind of guest now. “I’ve evolved quite greatly since getting married myself. Early on, I went to a wedding with just a Target graphic T-shirt. I’ve taken my shirts off at weddings,” he says.

But he might make an exception for his brother’s nuptials. “Listen, the first time I met Taylor was at a Buffalo Bills game. I jumped out of a suite. She invites us back to things now!” he recalled. “We’ll see if the shirt stays on or off. I think if my shirt comes off, Kylie will be very upset about that.”
