Dolly Parton Jokes She Wants Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s 1st Baby After $2M Charity Donation

Dolly Parton has a unique way of showing her gratitude for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s $2 million donation to her charity.

Parton’s Imagination Library was one of the recipients to share in the $26 million that Swift and Kelce gave away to various charity organizations ahead of their wedding on Friday, July 3.

To thank the couple for their generous gift, the “Jolene” singer, 80, shared an Instagram Reel message ahead of their nuptials on Friday.

“Taylor and Travis, it’s Dolly, and I was just told that you two were making a donation of $2 million to my Imagination Library,” Parton said in the video. “I’m blown away and overjoyed with that gratitude.”

She then joked, “Now, it’s evident that you have made giving back a key part of your lives, so hey, when you have your firstborn, can I have it? Because that is gonna be one special baby!”

The Imagination Library provides free books to children up to the age of five, intending to inspire a love of reading.

Parton ended the video message on a more serious note, thanking the newly married couple for helping with her philanthropy endeavors.

“You know the mission of the Dollywood Foundation is to dream more, care more, learn more and be more, and thank you again for your very generous gift. And, we’ll continue that mission even in bigger ways now with your money,” she said.

The Imagination Library also shared the video. The post’s caption doubled down on thanking Swift and Kelce.

“We’re smiling extra big today!! @taylorswift and @killatrav, THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts! It means so much to all of us at Dolly’s Foundation to know that you share Dolly’s dream of inspiring a love of reading in children,” the caption read. “Because of your kindness, more children will experience the excitement of receiving a new book each month, more families will share bedtime stories together, and more little imaginations will be inspired to dream boldly.”

The caption concluded, “On behalf of our team, partners, and millions of children and families across the United States to Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and the Republic of Ireland, thank you.”

Swift and Kelce tied the knot in a star-studded ceremony held at New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Friday, July 3. Just after the pair exchanged vows, digital billboards outside the venue read, “JusT&T Married.”
