Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s reasons for absence from funeral of dad Ed’s long-term partner revealed

TRAVIS KELCE and Taylor Swift were absent from his dad’s long-term girlfriend’s funeral.

Maureen Maguire was laid to rest on Thursday in a small family service in Gladwyne, Pennsylvania.

Maureen sadly passed away earlier this month at the age of 74.

The cause of death is not known.

Dad Ed and Maureen were both regular viewers of the Kelce brothers when they would play in NFL games.

The majority of the family attended the service at the St. John Vianney Catholic Church, but there was a noticeable absence of Kelce and Taylor.

This included Kelce’s brother Jason and his wife Kylie.

The Daily Mail have claimed that the Kansas City Chiefs star instead chose to stay in the team’s training camp.

A video was later shared on the team’s social media channels of Kelce, 35, greeting the iconic Terrell Owens at the practice session.

Kelce is currently prepping for his 13th campaign in the NFL and is aiming for Super Bowl glory.

The Chiefs were denied a famous three-peat last season as they were beaten by the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl.

Kelce has previously admitted that training camps help him shut off from the outside world.

He said: “I love it here.

“It gets me away from everything else that’s going on in this crazy world.

“You can really just focus in on your craft and focus in on being the best you can for the guys around you, man.

“Football has always been the biggest driving force I’ve ever had.

Club pays tribute to UK footballer twins, 20, killed along with mum, dad & 2 others in horror Portugal head on crash

A FOOTBALL club has vowed tragic twins Afonso and Domingos will be “never forgotten” after they were among six killed in a horror head-on smash in Portugal.

The 20-year-old siblings, their dad Domingos Serrano, 55, wife Maria Joao, 51, and two others all died in the early hours of Saturday.

The family had just rented a Nissan Juke at Faro Airport before they smashed into another vehicle on the IP2 main road near Castro Verde.

The 19-year-old girlfriend of one of the twins – believed to be of Polish origin but living in the UK – was also killed, along with the other driver, 36-year-old Ruben Goncalves.

Local reports said Goncalves, from Almodovar, worked at the Neves-Corvo zinc-copper mine and had a four-year-old son.

Thetford Town Youth FC, where the twins once played, paid tribute in a heartfelt Facebook post.

It read: “Thetford Town Football Club would like to pass on our sincere condolences to the Serrano family and the local Portuguese community after the recent tragedy while on holiday.

“Afonso and Domingo’s were both an integral part of our U18’s team in recent years, both brothers sadly passed away in Portugal with their parents and friends in a tragic car accident.”

The club said their loss would leave a “massive void” in the local community, signing off with a Portuguese phrase meaning: “They are gone, but they will never be forgotten.”

It added in a separate post: “They will be sadly missed. Condolences to all their family. Rest in peace.”

Shocked locals have also shared their condolences online.


Heidi Smith commented: “Absolute shock a lovely family and will be missed.”

Michelle Jermy added: “Absolutely heartbreaking. Such a loss, condolences to all those grieving and thinking of family, friends and the wider community processing the pain from this sad news. Rest in peace.”

Louise McLaughlin, from Thetford, said: “Absolutely heartbreaking. Rest in peace.”

Tania Marques Da Cruz wrote: “My most sincere condolences to all those killed. I hope their souls rest in peace.


“It’s so sad to hear of people leaving their homeland and friends in search of a better life and then have their lives end like this. How unfair life is.”

Cesar Caleiro said: “My sincere condolences to the loved ones of those killed. Mourao must rally round to comfort the families of the victims.”

The crash happened around 1.40am on a stretch of road where the speed limit is 49mph.

The family – originally from Mourao in the Evora district but long settled in England – had landed at Faro Airport just hours earlier and were driving north for their summer break.

Domingos, believed to live in Thetford, Norfolk, had celebrated his 55th birthday only two days before boarding the flight to Portugal.

A source close to the investigation said the wreckage was so severe “officers could only recover half a number plate” before piecing together who was inside.

The grim discovery came after the couple’s daughter called police, unable to reach her parents or brothers after hearing about the crash.

The insider said: “With the information she gave them officers made checks with the hire car firm at Faro Airport and tragically discovered a match.

“That was how they were able to confirm the identities of the five occupants in the car with the four members of the same family inside.”

The GNR police force is investigating the cause of the smash.

Mourao town hall has declared two days of mourning from Sunday.

A spokesman said: “There were four occupants in the car, all from Mourao, and a young woman with ties to the family.

“Residents of England, they were traveling from Faro to Mourao for their usual and well-deserved vacation.

“It is with great sadness that the Municipality announces this information, offering its condolences to the families and friends of the victims.

“We inform you that all activities and events promoted by the Municipality are cancelled for the entire weekend.”

Chris Jones spotted shouting at $93million Kansas City Chiefs teammate in explosive practice field moment

THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS’ season has gotten off to a rocky start following an explosive moment in practice.

That’s after Chris Jones was filmed shouting at teammate George Karlaftis in a viral video.

The 31-year-old can be seen berating his 24-year-old teammate after he seemed to ask for a break.

Jones is heard saying: “When I was 24, 25, I was doing every f***ing drive full speed.

“You’re 24, 25 and you’re asking for break.”

Furious defensive tackle Jones continues: “I ain’t hearing it.

“How are you on the field with no helmet?

“You can’t play?

“Well get 15 sacks then.

“I ain’t seen it. I ain’t seen it once.”

Karlaftis’ response cannot be clearly heard on camera, but Jones clearly took issue with it.

He replied: “Who gives a f***?

“Do it again.”

The exchange comes just weeks after edge rusher Karlaftis signed a $93million extension with the Chiefs.

This deal includes $63m guaranteed for the two-time Super Bowl winner.

He has 24.5 sacks in the regular season and another eight in the postseason over his first three NFL seasons.

While Jones, one of the league’s most prominent defensive players, was not happy with his teammate on this occasion, he did previously share a joke with him after the deal was announced.

He cheekily referred to Karlaftis as “G-Money”, instead of George.

Karlaftis laughed in response: “No, no, no, please don’t call me that.”

He later revealed Jones had called him “just about everything”.

The Super Bowl runner-ups start their campaign against the Los Angeles Chargers on September 5.

They lost against the Arizona Cardinals 20-17 on Saturday night after a disastrous second quarter which saw them give up 17 points.

Shock moment Dallas Cowboys star CeeDee Lamb is smashed into by referee on sideline – and HE is penalized for it

CEEDEE LAMB was smashed into by a referee on the sideline in shocking scenes.

And to make matters worse, he was penalized for it.

But he was wiped out by a referee sprinting along watching the action[/caption]

Lamb, 26, was not even playing for the Dallas Cowboys during their 31-21 defeat to the LA Rams in NFL pre-season.

But that did not stop the wide receiver from getting in the thick of the action.

During the friendly, Lamb celebrated a pass from quarterback Joe Milton III to Jonathan Mingo.

Just as he did so, facing down the pitch, a sideline official sprinted down the touchline.

But with both men watching the action on the pitch, the official charged straight into Lamb from behind and sent him tumbling heavily to the ground.

Lamb saw the funny side as he dusted himself down.

But, somewhat harshly, he had a penalty awarded against him.

Referee Alex Moore cleared up the situation and explained why the Rams benefited from the collision.

Moore told the LA Times: “It’s a sideline interference.

“CeeDee Lamb was standing in the restricted white border area, which is our area to officiate the game.

“The official on the play was focused solely on doing his job and he ran into CeeDee Lamb, who was standing in that restricted area.

“That’s what happened. And with that contact, it’s an automatic foul.

“It’s more of a rare situation. Normally we don’t have anybody standing that deep into the restricted area, or that type of forceful contact.

“So, it is a rare occurrence, but it does happen from time to time.”

And Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer had no complaints against the decision – only against his distracted star.

Schottenheimer said: “Just like the pre-snap penalties, that penalty, we’ve got to be better with discipline.

“I hope the guy’s okay. I think he’s okay, the official that he ran into, but we have to be better than that.

“CeeDee knows better. We know better.”

Fans on social media could not help but laugh at the whole scene.

One said: “The hat flying off is too funny.”

Another wrote: “Man, CeeDee taking shots and not even playing.”

And a third added: “This is the most Dallas Cowboys thing I’ve ever seen. CeeDee Lamb got trucked by a ref.”
