Taylor Swift appeared at the Chiefs game as dating rumors with Travis Kelce hit a fever pitch.

It's not just a love story between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce – but also the NFL tight end's family, who continue to rave about the pop star.

Kelce's father, Ed, recently spilled what he found to be the most endearing thing about Swift, whom he called "a very, very sweet, very charming, down-to-earth young woman."

"I’ll tell you something very special that I noticed about Taylor the first time I met her," Ed told People magazine. "We're sitting in the suite, she gets up and in the front room, she gets up to go get a drink or something and she starts picking up empty bottles, cans, plates that are scattered around."

"Because in the suites everybody gets stuff and you empty it down wherever you can… And I'm just thinking, I don't think she got the diva memo," he said of the 12-time Grammy Award winner, who is releasing the re-recording of her fifth studio album this Friday, "1989 (Taylor's Version)." 

"She didn't get the spoiled musician. She doesn't know how to pull that off. And that really to me said a whole lot."

During an episode of his joint podcast "New Heights" with brother Jason, Travis joked about his father's interactions with Swift. 

"If you were watching the game, you saw something momentous happen… Taylor Swift talking to Ed Kelce," Jason began.

"Yeah, Taylor talking to Dad… You know Dad, like I know Dad," Travis continued. "Which is – he shouldn't be talking to Taylor," Jason said with a laugh.

"This is a terrifying conversation. I felt terrible," Travis said. "All he's doing is just absolutely pumping her up. He started listening to her music a little more," he added of what likely transpired between his father and new beau.

"It was nice because Mom has been getting quite a bit of the spotlight," Jason noted of Donna. "So it was cool to see Dad up there on the jumbotron."

 I don't think she got the diva memo.

Donna has been more subdued with the media when discussing her son's relationship, admitting on the "Today" show that her time spent with Swift was "OK." 

"It's just one of those things where, you know, obviously, everybody saw me… I was in the boxes with [Swift]… It's just another thing that's amped up my life."

Representatives for Swift and Kelce did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
