Kelce didn&#8217;t seem shy about\u00a0sharing rare details about his and Swift&#8217;s relationship\u00a0(including insight into how they fell in love), but one question about his love life did give him pause, apparently.<\/p>\n<p>The emotional moment came when the interviewer reminded Kelce of an old interview in which he mentioned that, in a perfect world, he would want his eventual partner to share some of the qualities he admires most in\u00a0his mom, Donna Kelce\u2014and then asked if there were any similarities between Swift and the Kelce matriarch.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cTheir kindness, their genuineness, their ability to say hello to everyone in the room,\u201d Kelce answered. \u201cTheir ability to show love and support no matter what. And on top of that, their work ethic. I saw my mother reach goals that she had set for herself, go from being a teller to working all the way up in the KeyBank building.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Then, while &#8220;thinking of his mom\u2019s determination and perseverance&#8221; Kelce got &#8220;a bit emotional&#8221; and &#8220;pause[d] briefly to collect himself,&#8221; according to the according to the\u00a0<em>GQ<\/em>\u00a0profile.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve seen Taylor do the exact same thing of setting goals for herself and exceeding the expectations and really captivating the world in that regard,&#8221; Kelce added after taking a moment for the emotions the question apparently stirred up for him.<\/p>\n<p>During the interview,\u00a0Kelce also revealed that he and Swift already support each other\u00a0like family, too.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI get to be the plus one,\u201d he said of the way he and Swift support each other. \u201cI get to go and be that fan. Because I\u00a0am\u00a0a fan. I\u2019m a fan of music. I\u2019m a fan of art. And it\u2019s so cool that I get to experience her being that plus one for me on the football field\u2026. I feel that same enjoyment every time she comes to\u00a0my\u00a0shows.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kelce reportedly got &#8220;a bit emotional&#8221; and had to pause his interview briefly at this question.
