Travis Kelce melts at the chance to chat with his nieces.
On the latest episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce (Presented by Wave Sports + Entertainment), the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 33, was excited when brother Jason Kelce’s oldest daughter crashed their recording.
“Wyatt asked if she could say hi,” he says before hoisting the 4-year-old onto his lap.
Travis gasps and says, “Look at you!” as she says, “Hi Uncle Trav!”
“What’s up girly? How are you doing?” he asks. “How was gymnastics?”
“What are you wearing? Tell Uncle Trav what you’re wearing,” Jason says.
“A leotard!” she shares, pointing to her neckline.
Travis also got to say hi to niece Elliotte, 2, smiling wide as she appeared on screen. He asks her how she’s doing and the toddler can’t stop smiling.
“You’re smiling big,” Travis says. “You’re making my day.”
Before running off camera, Ellie pauses to show Travis her new sunglasses.
“Movie star!” Jason declares as he picks up the toddler, who appears on camera smiling in daisy-framed white sunglasses.
“I love it!” Travis says, pumping his fists as Jason sets her down. “Do you tell her when she puts on the sunglasses that she’s invisible like they do in Big Daddy?”
“I don’t think we’ve done that yet,” Jason laughs. “Usually we just say, ‘Oooh, look at the movie star.’ ”
Speaking with PEOPLE earlier this year, Jason’s wife Kylie Kelce — with whom he also shares daughter Bennett, 7 months — celebrated the relationship between her girls and their uncle.
Although she’s tried to tell Travis that he can turn down his nieces’ many requests, he’s a good sport at playing along.
“Our oldest, she’s our boss. She’s our ring leader, and she just has demand after demand for him. And I’m like, ‘Trav, you know you can tell Wyatt no?’ ”
“He was like ‘Yeah, I don’t think I can.’ And so he will do it,” she said.
“She’ll be like, ‘Jump up and down.’ He’ll do it. ‘Roll on the floor,’ he’ll do it. ‘Be the pony.’ He’ll do it. So he’s all-in when it comes to being an uncle. He is the epitome of an uncle, just through and through.”
