Kelce family in mourning as Ed Kelce's partner dies
Kelce shared an obituary on his Facebook page on Saturday afternoon announcing that she had passed away on August 1 at the age of 74.
The obituary describes Kelce as Maguire's 'beloved friend' but she has repeatedly been referred to as Ed's girlfriend amid the family's whirlwind rise to fame over the last three years.
Once, according to an interview Ed gave to the LA Times, she even jokingly told Taylor Swift 'hey, that's my boyfriend' when the singer took a selfie with Travis and Jason's father at an NFL game.
'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 said.
'Together, they traveled often and attended football games and concerts, and embraced every opportunity to enjoy life to the fullest.'
Ed and Donna Kelce, the mother of Travis and Jason, went their separate ways after nearly 25 years of marriage but have remained friends as their sons have become two of the most famous names in the NFL.
In 2023, the Super Bowl was renamed 'the Kelce Bowl' due to the brothers facing each other on opposing teams when the Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs beat Jason's Philadelphia Eagles.
Later that year, the family were propeled into unprecedented levels of fame when Travis and Taylor went public with their romance.
Donna was at Kansas City Chiefs traning camp on Saturday, watching Travis preparing for the new season.
The Chiefs start the new season in Brazil on September 5 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Ben Cousins announces stunning footy comeback and reveals the star who convinced him to return to the field
Controversial AFL legend Ben Cousins has announced he'll be returning to the field in a high–profile match – with the chance to star alongside a fellow great of the game proving too much to resist. The 47–year–old revealed he'll be playing in the AFL Legends game at Melbourne's Marvel Stadium on August 28, joking, 'How hard can it be?' after last playing first grade 15 years ago. 'I think it might be time to dust them [the footy boots] off. One game, hey? I can get myself up for one! It should be a bit of fun… I'm looking forward to it,' Cousins said on Mix94.5's Pete & Kymba with Ben Cousins radio show on Monday. The West Coast Eagles premiership–winner will take to the field with a host of big names, but the one that sticks out for him is former Hawks superstar Cyril Rioli. 'Shane Crawford is the coach; Nick Riewoldt is the captain. I only decided [to play] over the weekend. But, for me, the chance to play alongside Cyril, you know? I'm excited about that,' he said. 'It's a big thing; he was just such a great player. The 47–year–old has kept himself in great shape – and joked 'how hard can it be?' when he was asked about having just over three weeks to prepare for the match 'Everyone's situation is different but because he was 28 when he stopped playing, we all felt he had so much good footy left in him. 'To see him run around and have a kick is so exciting and I'm looking forward to handpassing to him or getting one off him!' Last month, Rioli stunned footy fans by announcing he'll run out for the All Stars side against their Victorian opposition in the match, which will raise funds for the Australian Prostate Cancer Centre. Rioli's bombshell exit from the game came after he accused Hawthorn of having a shocking relationship with its Indigenous players, and later penned an open letter about his experiences. When Cousins was reminded that the Legends game is only just over three weeks away, he replied, 'It's supposed to be like riding a bike, isn't it? 'It's a young man's game but I can get myself up for one, surely. How hard can it be?' Cousins – who is also working for Channel Seven in Perth – has kept himself in great shape since he was released from jail in 2019 after several stints behind bars. He recently looked super–fit as he took the rare step of publicly posting photos with his children after they enjoyed a family holiday in Western Australia. Cousins was also joined on a cruise by a host of other A–list Australian celebrities, including radio presenter Fifi Box, former host of The Project Carrie Bickmore, and former West Coast Eagles teammate Chris Judd and his wife Bec Judd. Cousins' battles with addiction have been well documented since they became public in 2007 after a series of off–field incidents, including arrests and suspensions. He was suspended from the AFL in 2007 and returned in 2009 to play two seasons with Richmond before retiring.

Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson share lip balm and act like a loved-up couple on WWHL
Pamela Anderson and her Naked Gun leading man Liam Neeson brought their undeniable chemistry to Sunday night's episode of Watch What Happens Live, which was technically pre-taped last Tuesday. The 58-year-old Baywatch alum and the 73-year-old Oscar nominee acted like every bit the coy couple on the Bravo talk show including intimately sharing the same $22 tube of 'Basic' lip balm from her company Sonsi Skin. 'The question that I'm not asking the two of you tonight is what's going on between the two of you,' host Andy Cohen declared. 'But I do just want to say as a very old friend of [Liam's]. All of your friends are very much stanning this relationship, as the kids say.' 'Awww,' Pamela smiled. The 57-year-old Bravo exec then addressed Neeson's son Daniel Jack Neeson, who was seated in the ' Oprah ' chair of the studio audience: 'Right, Danny?' Pamela Anderson and her Naked Gun leading man Liam Neeson brought their undeniable chemistry to Sunday night's episode of Watch What Happens Live, which was technically pre-taped last Tuesday The 58-year-old Baywatch alum and the 73-year-old Oscar nominee acted like every bit the coy couple on the Bravo talk show including intimately sharing the same $22 tube of 'Basic' lip balm from her company Sonsi Skin 'Yeah,' the 28-year-old De Nada Tequila co-founder smiled and agreed. Andy has previously stated he believed the knighted Northern Irishman might be ready for love again after losing his wife of 15 years, Natasha Richardson, to traumatic brain injury she suffered in a skiing accident. Cohen asked Liam and Anderson how many times they've 'truly been in love' and he answered 'two' while she hedged on 'one and a half.' Neeson famously lived with his Excalibur co-star Helen Mirren between 1980-1985 and is said to have loved and left Barbra Streisand, Julia Roberts, Brooke Shields, Janice Dickinson, and Freya St. Johnston. The Canadian-American beauty has been married an eye-popping, five times to four different men - Dan Hayhurst (2020-2022), Rick Salomon (2007-2008 and 2014-2015), Kid Rock (2006-2007), and Tommy Lee (1995-1998). When Andy challenged Pamela to rank her ex-husbands from favorite to least favorite, the 6ft4in action star chivalrously argued 'Oh that's not fair' before she responded: 'Plead the fifth!' Cohen also asked Anderson and Liam what they found 'sweetest' about each other. 'He's so kind and generous,' the 15-time Playboy cover girl gushed. Neeson - who loves her homebaked sourdough bread - answered 'her spirit' before adding that 'she's a giggler like me, and I love that.' Cohen asked Liam and Anderson how many times they've 'truly been in love' and he answered 'two' while she hedged on 'one and a half' The Canadian-American beauty has been married an eye-popping, five times to four different men - Dan Hayhurst (2020-2022), Rick Salomon (L, 2007-2008 and 2014-2015), Kid Rock (2006-2007), and Tommy Lee (R, 1995-1998) When Andy asked Pamela if she had seen the former Guinness Brewery worker chop wood before, she replied: 'No but I bought him an axe. I sent him an what I was hoping for! It's a hint.' Anderson and Liam looked like every bit the blended family as they posed with their two sons - including Micheál Neeson, 30; (with Richardson) and son Brandon Lee, 29; and Dylan Lee, 27; (with Lee) - at the New York premiere last Monday. They are the happiest they've looked in years, as a source first confirmed to People: 'They're enjoying each other's company. It's a budding romance in the early stages. It's sincere, and it's clear they're smitten with each other.' The SAG Award nominee portrays grieving sister Beth Davenport opposite Neeson's Lieutenant Frank Drebin Jr. in Akiva Schaffer's slapstick comedy continuation, which has earned $28.5M back from its $42M budget since opening worldwide last Thursday. The Naked Gun is 'certified fresh' with a 91% critic approval rating (out of 212 reviews) and a 77% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. It also features Danny Huston, Paul Walter Hauser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, Busta Rhymes, Cody Rhodes, Liza Koshy, and Eddie Yu. Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and David Zucker wrote and directed the original trilogy spanning 1988-1994, which amassed a total $476.4M at the global box office, following the short-lived ABC series Police Squad in 1982.
