24. That note is wrong. You should self-delete it. Steven J Demetriou Sr AND his son, Steven J Demetriou Jr were both there

Steven J. Demetriou Sr has an adopted son (Reggie King) who was childhood friends with Travis Kelce. That is why he was there, invited (as was Steven J. Demetriou Jr, his son and a Republican Ohio state representative) by Kelce.

see this article:

snip

Demetriou attended the wedding with his wife and also his son, Ohio Republican representative, Steven J. Demetriou Jr.

Demetriou Jr. described the wedding to reporters afterward as ‘epic, great and life-changing.’

Demetriou does have personal ties to the groom, being the adoptive father of Kelce’s close childhood friend, basketball player Reggie King.

Amentum’s Chair, Steven J. Demetriou, was pictured among the wedding party (Picture: BACKGRID)

Steven J. Demetriou Jr is also his son, and is an Ohio Republican state representative. He also was at the wedding.
