Grief in the family of Travis Kelce: Father Ed Kelce says goodbye to partner

The family of the NFL stars Travis (35) and Jason Kelce (37) has to cope with a painful loss. Maureen Maguire (1950-2025), the partner of Ed Kelce, died on August 1 at the age of 74. This was announced by the father of football players on Saturday. He divided the link on his account.

It says that she “died peacefully in the presence of her loved ones”. Although the obituary Ed Kelce only refers to her “beloved friend”, Maureen had become known as Ed Kelce’s partner in recent years. Maguire himself also described him in an interview with the “boyfriend”, ie her partner. How long they were a couple is not known.

The obituary describes Maureen Maguire’s career and describes it as a “devoted mother”, who was particularly proud of her three children and six grandchildren. Maguire also leaves her sister and brother. Before her relationship with Ed Kelce, she was married to her husband Daniel J. Maguire, who died of her.

“Later she developed an unexpected love for football and shared many funny moments and adventures with her beloved friend Ed Kelce and her loyal dog butch,” the obituary recognizes the time together with Ed Kelce. “Together they often traveled, visited football games and concerts and used every opportunity to enjoy life to the fullest.” It also says: “Your friendliness, your joke and her gentle strength left a lasting impression with everyone who was lucky enough to know them.” Her presence was “a gift”.

A funeral service will take place on August 7th in Gladwyne in the US state of Pennsylvania. The burial takes place in the private circle.
