Just in time for Super Bowl LVIII, Donna, 71, exclusively shared how to make her delicious dip in the latest issue of We weekly. “My favorite recipe is a seven-layer dip that I've been bringing to the tailgate for years,” she says of the easy-to-make dish. “The key is to keep it simple but daringly delicious with special ingredients like Heluva Good! Jalapeño Cheddar Dip. It is a crowd pleaser and perfect for the Big Game.”

The recipe is also the perfect dish for those new to the kitchen. Donna has admitted this before Us in November 2023 that she “is not a good cook”, but that she has a talent for baking. “I bake cinnamon rolls. They are always my favorite. My go-to,” she shared as she chatted about her family's Thanksgiving menu. “I can only do a few [of] times a year because they are so sweet.”
Although the Kelce family's Thanksgiving treats also included muffins and cookies, there was one thing missing from the table: turkey. “We usually just go get a ham,” she said Usin which she explains that she is “not particularly fond of turkey.”
When she's not sharing a meal with her family, she's cheering on Jason, 36, and Travis, 34, at their NFL games. The brothers went head-to-head at Super Bowl LVII last year, where Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs defeated Jason and the Philadelphia Eagles by a score of 38-35.
For her part, Donna showed her team pride for both the Chiefs and Eagles by wearing a red and black jacket with the two teams' logos and her sons' jersey numbers.
Her newfound fame has led to some interesting moments, including some awkward photo opportunities with fans. “Every now and then someone comes running into the bathroom after me and I think, 'Can we wait until we get out of here before you take my picture?' I really don't want to have a photo in the toilet,” she said Us in November 2023. “Things like that are pretty funny, and I'm sure everyone understands that this is in the public eye.”
Donna Kelce, Wilma McNabb and more mothers of pro football players were their sons' No. 1 fans long before their NFL days. Travis and Jason Kelce's mother was in the spotlight leading up to Super Bowl LVII in February 2023, which marked the first time the brothers played against each other in the championship game. […]
She even remembered seeing a TikTok video that someone had filmed of her in a movie theater without her knowledge. “It's a little nerve-wracking sometimes, but that's just part of it,” she said of the fans' attention. “You take the good with the less good. It is what it is.”
For the most part, Donna said Us that football fans have been “very, very nice” to her. “My children are paid by fans. That's the essence of it. And you better be nice to them,” she added. “That's all I tell them.”
