It seems like being called out by your own mother is just the kind of motivation one needs to get a great Mother’s Day gift for your mom and wife this year.
Jason and Travis Kelce’s mother Donna Kelce was on the Today Show to show off some of her favorite ideas for Mother’s Day presents, and America’s football mom was asked if her sons are good gift givers when it comes to the holiday.
Mama Kelce had no shame in putting her sons on blast for their crappy gift-giving skills.
“Boys usually are not,” she said. “I’m very rarely in the same place they are on Mother’s Day because it’s their offseason, so they’re off and running and doing their own thing. But that’s OK, I’ve had so many blessings that I don’t even care.”
And what’s worse? The brothers couldn’t deny it.
The former Philadelphia Eagles star lineman and the current Kansas City Chiefs All-Pro tight end reacted to their mom’s appearance on the show on their latest episode of “New Heights,” released May 1, and acknowledged their lack of talent when it comes to choosing Mother’s Day gifts.
“Mom was on the Today show to share some Mother’s Day gift ideas, and she was also asked if the two of us are good at Mother’s Day gifts. Are we gift-givers?” Travis Kelce asked.
“Don’t ask Kylie,” Jason Kelce said, referring to his wife. “I am a bad gift planner and giver.”
It seems the older Kelce sibling is so bad at gift-giving – unlike Kylie apparently – that he’s a month late on an anniversary gift for her as well.
Since the two have been married for six years, it’s traditionally their iron anniversary. With that in mind, Travis Kelce went on to suggest he have a sword made for his wife for either occasion, which led Jason Kelce to search for somewhere he could obtain a custom sword between the time the episode was recorded and when it aired.
“At least she was honest, and she didn’t just keep us like we’re unhuman,” Travis Kelce said about their mother. “You’ve got to be [expletive] at something.”
“I can’t be good at dancing and be good at gift giving. I can only have one of those,” Jason Kelce joked.
“We should just send Mom gifs of us dancing for Mother’s Day,” Travis Kelce suggested.
“For a gift, you’re going to get a gif,” Jason Kelce replied.
“What do you get a woman that has everything?” Travis Kelce wondered out loud.
Jason Kelce said he usually gets Kylie hydrangeas, chocolates, and a card. Meanwhile, his mom usually receives “a heartfelt Mother’s Day text.”
Fortunately, this year will be different for their mother.
“Mom, we’re going to figure it out,” Travis Kelce said. “This year you’re getting it because you called us out, and now if you get too much stuff, it’s your fault. Love you.”
