Travis Kelce is opening up about one of the many elements of his life that have substantially changed in the last 12 months — the surge of "random s-t" sent to his house, specifically.

During Wednesday's installment of the "New Heights" podcast he co-hosts with his brother, retired Eagles center and new ESPN analyst Jason Kelce, the star Chiefs tight end spoke about the fallout of having his residence publicized online as his profile continues to rise.

"The one thing you don't realize when somebody posts your house online, that everybody now has your address and people just send stuff to your house, so I literally stopped getting mail to my house," said Kelce, who just agreed to a two-year contract extension with the Chiefs, keeping him in Kansas City through at least 2027.

"I had to literally tell the post office and everybody stop bringing stuff to my house … Anything sent to my house, send right back to the sender, so anybody that's just sending random s-t to my house, it's not getting to me."

The Kelces pivoted to this topic after Jason, 36, spoke about the spring cleaning at his house and where he wants to place the retirement gift he received from wife Kylie after calling it a career in March.

Much has changed for Kelce, 34, in the past year, particularly the glare of the limelight as his relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift has continued to intensify.

First linked in the summer of 2023, Swift flipped the internet on its head when she attended her first Chiefs game last September to cheer on Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium.

Days after the game, a 41-10 Chiefs' win over the Bears, Kelce spoke about paparazzi sightings outside his home.

"I've noticed a few things, paparazzi outside my house, s-t like that, for sure. One hundred percent and they all have British accents too, or something European," the three-time Super Bowl champ said on a September episode of "New Heights."

A month later, Kelce purchased a $6 million mansion in a Kansas City gated community, offering more privacy.

Kelce spoke at length about the increased attention in a candid interview with WSJ. Magazine last fall.

"Obviously I've never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them," Kelce said. "I've never dealt with it.

"But at the same time, I'm not running away from any of it."

Much of Kelce and Swift's offseason moves have made headlines, including their PDA-packed night at pal Patrick Mahomes' 15 and the Mahomies Foundation gala over the weekend.

They're rumored to attend the F1 Miami Grand Prix this weekend before Swift resumes the international leg of her Eras Tour in Paris on May 9.
