All About Jason Kelce’s Wife, Kylie McDevitt Kelce

Jason Kelce’s wife, Kylie Kelce (neé McDevitt), is proud to be married to him.

After meeting on Tinder, the retired NFL player and Kylie made their romance Instagram official in March 2015. They got married in April 2018 and went on to welcome four children together: daughters Wyatt Elizabeth, Elliotte Ray, Bennett Llewellyn and Finnley “Finn” Anne.

After 13 seasons in the NFL, Jason announced he was retiring from football in March 2024. During his retirement speech, he tearfully remembered the moment he met Kylie, saying, “I still remember the moment she walked through the door. The first instance is burned in my retina. It was like she glided through the opening, an aura around her.”

Meanwhile, Kylie marked the occasion with a heartfelt Instagram post, writing, “Your accolade studded 13 year career is a direct result of your hard work, determination, and resilience. I am immensely proud to be your wife and can’t wait to see what you do next.”

She continued, “As always, the girls and I will be there cheering you on every step of the way! 💚.”

So, who is Jason Kelce’s wife? Here’s everything to know about Kylie Kelce and her relationship with the retired NFL player.

She is a Philly girl

Jason may not be a born and bred Philadelphian — the NFL star was raised in Cleveland Heights, Ohio — but he is firmly rooted in the City of Brotherly Love. The Super Bowl champ was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2011 and has played 12 seasons with the team. He is affectionally known city-wide (and beyond!) as the “King of Philly.”

Kylie, however, was raised in Eagles country. Born in 1992, she grew up in Narberth, a Main Line suburb of Philadelphia. She stayed nearby for college, attending Cabrini University in Wayne, Pa. She majored in communications, and Jason was right by her side when she graduated in 2017.

“She’s from the area. Both of her parents are here, my parents came in, and she has a lot of friends, family members. She’s not alone by any stretch of the imagination,” the pro athlete told reporters the day after his firstborn’s birth in October 2019, noting that his teammates and coaches had been very supportive. “There’s not much I can do. Obviously, I can be supportive and whatnot, but, you know, you can’t milk me.”

She and Jason met on Tinder

In Kelce, a 2023 documentary by Amazon Prime Video, Kylie spoke about meeting her husband on Tinder, admitting that she didn’t initially know that the person she matched with was an athlete. “None of his pictures showed Eagles football,” she said.

During a September 2023 podcast episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, she talked about spotting him on the app. “His profile at the time was something along the lines of, ‘I want to have deep meaningful conversations and talk about getting married and having kids,’ ” she recalled.

Kylie said that for their first date, she went to meet Jason and his friends at a bar. However, the date didn’t last long. “Forty-five minutes later, he fell asleep at the bar, like just, out, like asleep, asleep,” she said in the documentary.

She also recounted on the podcast how fellow Eagles player Bo Allen then “accomplished the most accomplished physical feat of his life when he fireman carried back to his apartment.”

Jason then said he was “sober enough to know” Kylie was “the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my life” before noting that their second date “went much better.”

“The next day, he called and was like, can we try that again?” Kylie said, adding that he “did much better” impressing her the next time they went out.

The pair made their relationship Instagram official on Nov. 11, 2015, when Kylie shared a black-and-white picture with her beau along with the caption, “Thank goodness you swiped right too.”

She and Jason got married in Philadelphia

The couple tied the knot at the Logan Hotel in Philadelphia on April 14, 2018. Their wedding planner, Sarah Alderman, said there were about 170 guests at the wedding. The Kelce’s 20-pound Irish wolfhound, Winnie, whom they adopted in May 2017 and are reportedly “obsessed with” according to Philadelphia Magazine, was among the attendees.

The wedding came two months after Jason and his Eagles won Super Bowl LII. Their engagement appeared to be short, as Philadelphia photographer Hugh E Dillon claimed he received a tip “six weeks” earlier from a customer who said they saw Jason buying an engagement ring and wedding bands.

Kylie shared a lovely message on Instagram on the pair’s one-year wedding anniversary, writing, “One year ago today we stood in front of our closest friends and family and vowed our love and commitment to each other. I am so beyond grateful that I get to share my life with this man.”

She is a girl mom

Jason and Kylie are proud parents to four daughters.

Two months before they welcomed their firstborn, Kylie rocked a green Eagles shirt that said “62 did this” in all caps, with an arrow pointing to her belly.

“Just giving credit where credit is due… And to all the people who told me I was glowing… that was sweat,” the mom-to-be joked on Instagram in August 2019.

Their eldest daughter, Wyatt Elizabeth Kelce, was born on Oct. 2, 2019. Jason told reporters that originally they were thinking Wyatt for a boy and Charlotte for a girl, but friends took the latter name first and they liked how Wyatt sounded “regardless” of sex.

Wyatt now has three little sisters. Elliotte Ray Kelce arrived on March 4, 2021; Bennett Llewellyn joined the family on Feb. 23, 2023; and Finnley “Finn” Anne was born on March 30, 2025.

She supported her husband at the Super Bowl — while very pregnant

Kylie was in the stands to cheer Jason on during the 2023 Super Bowl — and she was fully prepared in case she went into labor during the game.

While Kylie brought her two OBs to the stadium in case she went into labor at the Super Bowl, she didn’t end up giving birth that day.

“It was an epic game, an epic Super Bowl, an epic one for our family. We did miss out on one thing that could have made it more epic though. That baby is still inside Kylie’s belly,” Jason said during a February 2023 podcast episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce.

He added, “I was actually rooting for Kylie to go into labor and have the baby at the stadium. I feel like that’s very selfish of me, but that’s what I wanted to happen. I don’t know why I wanted that to happen.”

On Feb. 10, 2023, Kylie talked to PEOPLE about her competitive spirit as Jason and her brother-in-law, Travis Kelce, prepared to face off at the Super Bowl.

“Being part of the Kelce family right now is very exciting,” she said.

“I, of course, am like, ‘Sorry Travis, we’re not family this week,’ ” she joked. “But, you know, next week, it’ll be all love again.”

She’s a podcast host

In December 2024, Kylie launched a podcast venture of her own, Not Gonna Lie. It was an instant hit, climbing to No. 1 on Spotify and Apple charts immediately after its debut.

“It absolutely blew my mind that you guys were able to get Not Gonna Lie to the No. 1 spot,” she said during the second episode. “I’m still in disbelief about that. The way that everyone has not only been so kind in the anticipation for episode 1, but then also the reactions you guys have had in the comments have been so encouraging, and I really appreciate you guys having such positive feedback considering I’m still a rookie and we’re working out the kinks.”

Fans even declared Kylie “the funniest Kelce” in a post on X. In response, Jason quipped, “Funniest looking…”

In August 2025, Travis’ girlfriend Taylor Swift hopped on the New Heights podcast. The appearance broke New Heights‘ viewership records, which had previously been held by Kylie. (Her September 2023 appearance garnered 8.6 million views.) But Kylie took it all in stride.

“Officially no longer the record holder for the most watched episode of the other podcast,” she said during her Aug. 14 episode of Not Gonna Lie. “There’s no way it’s even close, and I love that for me.”

She is a philanthropist

The Kelces both give back to their community. Jason established his own foundation, (Be)Philly, a non-profit dedicated to improving the lives of Philadelphia’s youth, in October 2022.

“Whether my family, my friends, or my fellow Philadelphians, I have always felt an overwhelming love and support that has helped reach my dreams and potential on and off the field. Now it’s my turn,” Jason wrote on the nonprofit’s website.

And Kylie has regularly helped raise money for the Eagles Autism Foundation. She throws an annual event at Ocean Drive in Sea Isle City, New Jersey, which raised $150,000 — of which the Kelces donated $50,000 — in its second year in 2022.

Kylie has been volunteering from an early age — as a high schooler, she worked with the Special Olympics of New Jersey and helped pack boxes to send to troops.

She played field hockey at the collegiate level

As a student, Kylie played field hockey at Lower Marion High School in Ardmore, Pa., as well as during college.

According to her Cabrini Athletics page, during her senior year in 2016, she was named to the All-CSAC First Team and ECAC South All-Stars First Team and scored 15 total points on five goals and five assists. In 2019, she called becoming a part of the Cabrini Field Hockey family “one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”

Kylie is now the head field hockey coach at her former high school and tries to teach her players how to see their team “as your family.”

“All of the things that we focus on — yes, we focus on skill. Yes, we focus on endurance. We focus on all the things that could potentially help us win in field hockey, but ultimately, I’m trying to help them win at life,” she told PEOPLE in August 2024. “So all of those character-building opportunities are things that we focus on mostly.”

She’s friends with Taylor Swift

Kylie first appeared to cross paths with her brother-in-law’s girlfriend, Swift, when they shared a suite in January 2023, when the Kansas City Chiefs played against the Buffalo Bills. Kylie and Swift posed for photos together during the game, including one that Amanda Santa, the wife of Travis’ manager, Aaron Eanes, shared on Instagram.

The new friends were reunited at the 2024 Super Bowl as they cheered Travis on. In a video shared on X, Kylie and Swift can be seen chatting in the suite, along with the singer’s dad, Scott.

Over the years, Kylie and Swift have deepened their friendship. In April 2025, Taylor subtly supported Kylie after she welcomed her fourth child. Swift even picked up on one of Kylie’s signature phrases while recalling Jason’s shirtless shenanigans at the Chiefs vs. Bills playoff game in January 2024.

“One of the first things I saw was that you said to Kylie, ‘I was just shotgunning beers with the Bills mafia, and I really wanna go through one of the fire tables, I wanna jump onto the flaming table,’ ” Swift said during her August 2025 appearance on New Heights. “And she goes, ‘Okay, can we not do that right now?’ ”

She continued, “And since then, I’ve heard her say that exact thing to your 4-year-old, about like, ‘Mommy, I wanna throw this pudding on the wall, wouldn’t that be fun?’ “

She and Jason starred in a Wawa campaign

Wawa — a convenience store chain — tapped Jason and Kylie to promote the brand’s famous hoagies. Together, they filmed several short comedic commercials.

“Directing these Wawa commercials with Jason is similar to the way I manage every day with our family,” the mom of three said in a press release. “I try to go in with a plan, but distractions happen, so we just take everything in stride and do our best.”
