Donna Kelce Joins 'The Traitors' 1 Day After Sons Travis and Jason's Podcast Teased Her Casting News

It's official: Donna Kelce is heading to the Highlands. On June 13, Peacock announced that the iconic NFL mom is joining the cast of The Traitors season 4. Donna, who is the mother of Jason and Travis Kelce, will compete with a group of celebrities for the chance to win the cash prize of up to $250,000.

Jason and Travis' podcast account teased Donna's casting on X, one day before it was officially announced. On Thursday, June 12, the X account for the brothers' podcast, New Heights, shared a clip from a September 2024 episode where Travis, 35, and Jason, 37, talked about the Peacock series, as they debated about whether each of them would be any good.

In the caption of the post on X, the brothers' podcast wrote that they were sharing the clip of them talking about Traitors "for no reason whatsoever," with a smirk emoji, seemingly teasing the forthcoming news of their mom's casting announcement.

Donna will join 22 other contestants this season, including Lisa Rinna, Mark Ballas, and Colton Underwood, to name a few. The lineup also includes previous reality show gamers, such as Natalie Anderson (The Amazing Race), Yamil "Yam Yam" Arocho (Survivor), and Rob Cesternino (Survivor).

The casting news comes three months after Dylan Efron, Dolores Catania, Gabby Windey, and Ivar Mountbatten won season 3 in March and split the cash prize amongst themselves.
