Travis and Jason Kelce’s mother, Donna Kelce, is stepping into the spotlight with a new partnership, teaming up with the iconic baking brand Pillsbury. Known as the proud mother of two NFL stars and a viral sensation in her own right, Donna has announced an exciting new venture that highlights her love of family and food.
In a video shared on social media, Donna revealed that she will be co-hosting the 2024 Pillsbury Bake-Off, a beloved annual event that brings together home bakers from across the country. “Hi everyone, I’m Mama Kelce, and I am so excited to announce that I’m going to be co-hosting this year’s 2024 Pillsbury Bake-Off,” she said in the clip. “This year’s theme is holiday family favorites, and I can’t wait to try some of your delicious recipes. Remember, enter now through September 30.”
Fans were quick to express their excitement about Donna’s new role. Comments poured in on social media, with one fan writing, “Aww, love Mama K.” Another added, “She’s so adorable!!! I’ll be watching Mama Kelce.” Many others praised Donna for raising two successful sons, with one fan commenting, “She must have been an amazing mama to raise such great men.”
Donna’s rise to fame has been a natural extension of her sons’ success, particularly with the popular New Heights podcast hosted by Travis and Jason, which has garnered a huge following. The brothers recently signed a massive $100 million deal with Amazon for the show.
A source close to the family revealed that Donna could be expanding her brand even further, with talks of her hosting her own food and wine TV show as part of the Kelce family’s growing media empire.

This isn’t the first time Donna has found herself in the public eye. Over the past year, she has become a fan favorite, known for her enthusiastic support of her sons and her candid personality.
Her Super Bowl appearances, including her custom half-Eagles, half-Chiefs jersey to celebrate both of her sons playing in Super Bowl LVII, made her a viral sensation. Now, her partnership with Pillsbury gives her the opportunity to blend her love of family, food, and football in a fun and exciting way.
Meanwhile, the Kelce family will be in the spotlight once again for Thursday night’s NFL season opener between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens. The game is expected to be a star-studded affair, with Donna and pop sensation Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce’s girlfriend, both expected to be in attendance. According to sources close to Swift, the singer is eager to support Travis and plans to attend as many games as possible throughout the season. “After the long European leg of her tour, where Travis was able to come show up and spend time with her when he could, she wants to show him that she supports him,” the source revealed. “She can’t wait for the start of the season and attend as many games as she can, starting this Thursday.”
The Chiefs have reportedly ramped up security in anticipation of Swift’s presence at Arrowhead Stadium, reflecting the high-profile nature of her relationship with Kelce.
NFL reporter Olivia Harlan Dekker also weighed in on the Chiefs’ upcoming season, predicting an “electric” year for the reigning Super Bowl champions as they aim for an unprecedented three-peat. “They only got better,” Dekker told The U.S. Sun. “Any team in the NFL would covet their continuity on and off the field. Then they bring in all this wide receiver talent, which was the knock on Kansas City last year… this is about to be extremely electric.”
As the season kicks off, both Donna Kelce and Taylor Swift will have front-row seats to the action, supporting Travis Kelce and his team as they aim for more success on the field.
With her new career venture and her sons continuing to dominate the NFL, it’s clear that the Kelce family’s star power is only growing brighter.
