Travis Kelce isn’t just a star on the football field; he’s also a dedicated “funcle” to his nieces. On the December 18 episode of the Not Gonna Lie podcast, sister-in-law Kylie Kelce shared a heartwarming look at how the Kansas City Chiefs tight end spends quality time with her daughters. From playing Barbies to dancing on the floor, Kelce goes all out to make them happy.

During the podcast, Kylie Kelce described her brother-in-law’s playful side, noting that he’ll do just about anything to bring joy to his nieces. “He wants to flip them, play with them, get on the floor, play Barbies. He’ll dance until they tell him to stop. It’s all of it,” she said.
Robert Irwin, who was also part of the podcast, could relate immediately to Kylie’s story. As an uncle himself, he shares a close bond with his niece Grace, Bindi’s daughter. Irwin shared stories of his adventures with Grace Irwin at the Australia Zoo.
“We really run amok. Grace, she gets away with a lot with me. It’s so funny because she’ll come back and she’ll be like can I have that chocolate? Bindi will be like, oh, no, sweetheart, sorry, you’ve got to have your vegetables first. She’s like, yeah, well, Uncle Robert would let me. She really wields it,“ Irwin shared.
Kylie went on to talk about “aunt, uncle, and grandparent privilege,” noting that the kids get special treatment during visits. She recalled a recent moment when one of her daughters showed up with a cookie “almost as big as her face,” and she had to let her enjoy it because of these special rules. “Exactly. I’m not going to take the cookie because of aunt, uncle, grandparent privilege,” Kylie said.
