Travis Kelce’s Dad Appears to Hard-Launch New Relationship Before Wedding

Kara Durrette/GettyTravis Kelce’s father, Ed Kelce, appears to have made his new romance Instagram-official just weeks before his son and pop star Taylor Swift’s rumored wedding at Madison Square Garden. The 75-year-old shared a photo of his alleged girlfriend at a Philadelphia bar on Saturday in a post captioned, “With the dynamic and gorgeous Doree Hepner at 118 North, listening to York Street Hustle: their Summer Soul(stice) show.” The Kelce patriarch was previously married to Donna Kelce for nearly 25 years, with whom he raised NFL stars Travis and Jason. Most recently, Ed was linked to Maureen Maguire, who passed away in August 2025 at age 74. News of this romance arrives as speculation swirls that Swift and the younger Kelce recently celebrated their bachelorette and bachelor parties on Friday, after being seen in separate, conspicuous gatherings with close friends. The ultra-famous couple is reportedly planning to marry on July 3 at Madison Square Garden, with stars like Zoë Kravitz, Ed Sheeran, Karlie Kloss, Selena Gomez, and Gigi Hadid expected to attend.
