Admit it: Travis Kelce has hit the holiday spirit by confessing he's never seen the cherished Christmas romantic-comedy ‘Love Actually’ and never intended to watch it. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end made this revelation during a vibrant discussion on the December 4 episode of his "New Heights" podcast, where he and his brother Jason Kelce were joined by their sister-in-law, Kylie Kelce.

As part of their Film Club review series, Kylie suggested that the brothers should watch ‘Love Actually,’ the 2003 holiday classic directed by Richard Curtis. "I think it’s the holiday season and that Love Actually is a tremendous movie that you could really sit down with your significant others and enjoy," Kylie said in a recording. "Because it’s not like one of your significant others hasn’t asked you to watch it multiple times, and you said ‘no’ every time. So, this could be a great excuse to get you to watch it."

However, both brothers weren’t sold on the idea. Jason was quick to dismiss it, saying, "I think we can both probably agree we’re not doing Love Actually." Travis, who was on the same page, agreed and even threw some subtle shade at the film, commenting, "Yeah, probably not. I’ll do like a really good Christmas movie, though."
The conversation took a humorous turn when New Heights intern Brandon Borders chimed in, suggesting that Kylie could appear on the podcast if the brothers agreed to review the film. Jason suggested that Kylie should take the lead and cover the movie on her own podcast, "Not Gonna Lie." He even volunteered to be a guest so Travis could avoid watching it altogether.

In his signature style, Travis humorously responded, "Yeah, don’t f---ing torture me; torture your husband. I’m an innocent bystander here, Ky. Don’t f---ing come for me." This witty exchange showcased the Kelce brothers' natural chemistry and irreverence for holiday traditions.
While reminiscing about the star-studded cast of the film, the brothers indulged in some light-hearted banter about the Love Actually moments they were familiar with, particularly the Rowan Atkinson cameo as "Mr. Bean" and Liam Neeson's involvement with the film, joking whether it was like Taken. Jason asked Travis if that would make it more "hit the same" for him, on account of his personal acquaintance with Hugh Grant, who played the Prime Minister in the film.

‘Love Actually’ is one of the many Christmas films that tell a dozen stories of love and relationships a few weeks before Christmas. However, for Travis and Jason Kelce, the holiday season might look different this year, sans the sweet, heartwarming tales of ‘Love Actually.’
