Donna Kelce isn’t interested in dating after her divorce from ex-husband Ed Kelce, according to “Golden Bachelor” star Susan Noles.
During Noles’ appearance on the “I Do, Part 2 with Jennie Garth, Jana Kramer, Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes” podcast this week, the 67-year-old reality star was asked what she and the mother of NFL stars Jason and Travis Kelce talked about while they recently watched a Kansas City Chiefs game together.
Noles revealed the topic of dating was discussed. However, when Noles was asked whether Donna’s “ready to mingle,” she responded, “Honestly, no. She’s like ‘Really? I am good.’”
“She’s doing just fine, she’s enjoying her life, as she should. I don’t think she’s where I am.”
When asked why Donna felt so comfortable opening up about her personal life with Noles, she revealed they’ve “spent time together before.”
“We’re women. It wasn’t our first meeting, we know each other,” she said.
“So, yeah, I quizzed her.”
In October of last year, Donna made rare comments on her divorce from her husband of roughly 25 years. She said the pair maintained a “friendly relationship” until their split for the sake of their children — all while knowing their “marriage was not working.”
“We could do that and make sure that their life was normal as possible,” the 72-year-old explained in Glamour’s 2024 Women of the Year: The Moms issue. “But in that one respect, I did stand still for several years until I could move on on my own.”
The mother of two also remembered wanting “to get ahead” and “working really, really hard” as the “major breadwinner” in the family, but admitted she “did stand still, too.”
Donna and Ed tied the knot in the 1970s, but decided to end things after both of their sons — Travis, 35, and Jason, 37 — graduated from college.
“We decided that we would be married throughout the entire time that the kids were in the house, and that’s the way it worked out,” she said on a May episode of the Martha Stewart podcast.
In the 2023 “Kelce” documentary, Ed shared that he and Donna “would have preferred” to officially separate — but “that would have been a nightmare with the logistics, getting kids where they had to be and providing all the support.”
The couple has not formally revealed why they chose to call it quits.
