Ed Kelce has spoken out about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's impending podcast release in his first interview since the death of his long-term girlfriend Maureen Maguire.
It has been a tough few weeks for the patriarch of the Kelce family, but he was on fine form for a surprise appearance on Australian television on Wednesday, speaking about Taylor's new album, and his son Travis' GQ cover shoot.
When asked if he knew pop superstar Swift was dropping her 12th album - The Life of a Showgirl - Ed told Today: 'I knew nothing about this announcement... I knew at some point the boys wanted to get her on the podcast, but I didn't know when it was coming up.'
When asked whether he had heard any of the top-secret new music from Taylor's impending album, he insisted: 'No I haven't, not at all', before adding: 'I know Taylor's been working pretty hard since she stopped the tour.
'She's taken some breaks to watch some football games, but she's been out in LA working on this album. My guess is that, although I haven't heard anything, it's going to be like everything else she does, it's going to be beautiful.'
