Being a “girl dad” will have some benefits for NFL veteran Jason Kelce, according to his wife, Kylie Kelce.
Appearing on Amanda Hirsch’s “Not Skinny but Not Fat” podcast this week, Kylie Kelce recalled the early days of her relationship with Jason Kelce, whom she married in 2018.
“I think he has a very skewed idea of women… which is probably why he was blessed with four daughters,” she said, pointing to the couple’s children Wyatt, 5; Elliotte, 4; Bennett, 2; and Finnley, born March 30.
“The universe said, ’He doesn’t get it. We need him to get it.’ With only a brother and the only females in his house were his mom and his dog,” she added, referring to Jason Kelce’s younger brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, and their mother Donna Kelce.
A Narberth, Pennsylvania native, Kylie Kelce acknowledged having doubts early on about her relationship with the football player ― who she said hadn’t dated anyone seriously beyond a high school girlfriend.
“When we started dating and he introduced me to his family, his parents were like, ‘Oh, oh, he’s dating someone.’ Like, it was a shock,” she recalled.
She later said, “I was like, ‘You guys are shocked to a point where, like, should I be here? Why are you so surprised that he’s holding down a long-term girlfriend?’”

Despite those initial reservations, Kylie Kelce said she and her husband “match up really well” because she has “minimal” expectations when it comes to gestures of love.
“It’s like, ‘Walk past me in the kitchen, smack my ass.’ I’m good. We’re good,” she quipped. “Physical touch is one of my love languages.”
Elsewhere in the chat, Kylie Kelce looked ahead to her daughters’ adolescence and teenage years, and jokingly suggested their dad might temporarily move out if certain situations were to arise.
“I told Jason he’s allowed to move out as long as he visits me … as soon as they all hit, as soon as we’re all synced up,” she said, referring to the belief that women’s menstrual periods synchronize when they live together.
