Donna Kelce is putting in the work.
The mom of Travis and Jason Kelce opened up about her weight loss in the comment section of a Facebook post that featured a promotional photo of her ahead of the Traitors finale and reunion special on Thursday, Feb. 26.
Donna, 73, is seen wearing a sequined blazer and matching slim-fitting gray trousers while standing on the steps of what appears to be the 19th-century Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands, where she filmed season 4 of Peacock's hit reality show.

The Facebook account, the Kelce Brothers (a fan account of the Philadelphia Eagles star, 38, and his Kansas City Chiefs brother, 36) shared the photo of Donna that started the weight loss conversation in the comment section.
"Weight loss drugs worked!" one user wrote on the post, which prompted a reply from Donna.

"I did it myself with intermittent fasting," she wrote in response, adding, "Thanks, about 30 pounds over a year."
Donna was quite active in the comment section and wasn't afraid to clap back at critics either. In response to one user who attacked her appearance, writing, "That's a man," the mom of two Super Bowl champions hit back with a fearlessly witty response.

"I am as tall as one... Bahahaha but I have the cesarean scars to prove I gave birth," she replied to the critic.

Donna’s time on The Traitors was short-lived as she was banished after the roundtable vote in episode 3, confirming that she was the show's first-ever secret Traitor.
After being voted out, Donna said, "Playing a Traitor was tough, but I gave it my best shot."
"This has been a dream come true," she said through tears. "These are happy tears that I get to do this at this point in my life. It’s just the joy of being in the game."

Her sons, Travis and Jason, praised their mom's work on the show during the Wednesday, Jan. 14 episode of their New Heights podcast.
“I thought she did fantastic,” Jason said. “Like, I know she was eliminated, but I think it's really hard to go into those shows as, like, an outsider that you become, like, an easy target to try and maneuver in that show.”
The retired NFL star added, “I loved watching her in it. She was way more deceitful and devious than I thought Mom could ever be, which was surprising.”
Travis agreed, noting, “She stood her ground at the round table.”
“I was so proud of her, man,” the Chiefs star added. “She looked like she was having a blast, enjoying it all… it was just so cool to see her in this moment.”
