Ed Kelce is looking back on sweet photos from the past as he mourns the death of his girlfriend, Maureen Anne Maguire.

The father of Travis, 35, and Jason Kelce, 37, shared a throwback picture of himself posing with Taylor Swift and Maguire, who died on Friday, Aug. 1 at age 74.

Uploaded to her obituary page, the image pictured Ed and Maureen smiling alongside Travis’ girlfriend Swift. The trio are decked out in Kansas City Chiefs attire in support of the star tight end’s team.

Swift, who wore a Chiefs crewneck sweatshirt, is seen holding up a friendship bracelet in one hand and a card that reads “Taylor Swift” in the other. Ed and Maureen, who were standing next to the pop superstar in the photo, wore jerseys with Travis’ number 87 on them.

In February 2024, Ed shared in an interview with the Los Angeles Times how Maureen had been getting to know Swift. He revealed a funny interaction between the pair shortly after they met.

While Swift, 35, was posing for a picture with Ed, Maureen joked, “Hey, that’s my boyfriend,” to which the singer laughed.

In January 2024, Ed revealed on Audacy’s 92.3 The Fan in Cleveland how he couldn’t recall Swift’s name during an early interaction at Travis’ home and Maguire had to remind him of who she was.

“When Travis has a lot of friends coming into town to go to the game, everyone meets at his house, although he’s not there,” Ed said on the show, noting that there can often be up to 20 people there before a home game.

“They have a shuttle that comes and picks everybody up and takes them to the game,” said Ed, who went on to say that he had probably met some of those in attendance “but cannot for the life of me picture, remember who they are.”

“And Taylor comes in, walks in with a security guard and I look at her … and I had my girlfriend with me and I mention to Maureen, ‘Oh, my God, I know this kid but I don’t know what her name is.’ Geez, you know, like a real idiot,” he shared.

Maureen then said to him, he recalled, “‘You don’t know her? This is Taylor Swift, you idiot.’ “

On Aug. 2, Ed announced the news that Maureen had died by sharing a link to an obituary on his personal Facebook page.

According to the obituary, Maureen “passed away peacefully surrounded by her loved ones” and described her as a “devoted mother” with “impeccable taste.”

Ed was described as Maguire’s “beloved friend,” with the obituary noting how she would attend games with the devoted football dad.

“She also grew an unexpected love for football later in life, sharing many laughs and adventures with her beloved friend Ed Kelce and her loyal dog Butch,” the obituary from Stretch Funeral Home in the suburbs of Philadelphia read.

“Together, they traveled often and attended football games and concerts, and embraced every opportunity to enjoy life to the fullest,” it continued.

Maureen was also described as a “natural hostess,” per the obituary. “She was famous for throwing the best parties, always full of warmth, laughter, and unforgettable food.”

Ed was married to Jason and Travis’ mom Donna Kelce for 25 years after they wed in the late ’70s. They divorced in 2011, and Ed explained that they had stayed together for their sons.

“If we had split as we probably both would have preferred, that would have been a nightmare with the logistics, getting kids where they had to be and providing all the support,” Ed explains in the 2023 documentary Kelce.

Per the obituary, Maureen leaves behind three children, six grandchildren, her brother John and her sister Loretta.
