In the bustling streets of Philadelphia, amidst the echoes of Eagles chants and the scent of cheesesteaks, a love story for the ages unfolded. Starring none other than Kylie McDevitt Kelce, the Philly native with a heart as big as the Liberty Bell, and Jason Kelce, the gridiron hero with a soft spot for romance.
Their journey began with a modern-day meet-cute that would rival any Hollywood rom-com. Kylie, with her roots firmly planted in the City of Brotherly Love, found herself intrigued by a football star whose Tinder profile promised deep conversations and dreams of family life.
As Kylie fondly reminisces about the moment with Skydance Sports on How Kylie Met Jason, she mentioned having doubts initially. On seeing Jason Kelce’s profile, Kylie recalled, “It’s a catfish so when he said oh come meet us at this bar my friend was like it’s either going to be him or is going to be someone who was pretending to be him hilarious either way”. Little did she know, swiping right would lead to a whirlwind of adventures and misadventures, all shared with her gridiron beau.

Their first encounter, much like an unexpected quarterback sneak, took a humorous turn. Jason, fueled by pre-date nerves and perhaps a tad too much enthusiasm, found himself dozing off at the bar within minutes of meeting Kylie. “He fell asleep 45 minutes after I got there on a bar table,” Kylie recollected with a chuckle. But amidst the laughter and lighthearted banter, Jason’s heart knew the game was far from over. “It was love at first sight,” he admitted with a grin, reminiscing about that unforgettable night.
Post that meeting, he asked Kylie for another date and as mentioned by the mother of three, “he did much better that time.” Now that Jason has retired from professional football and aims to focus on his family, this new chapter will also be addressed by the couple with strength, determination, and love that has been central to their love story.

From their first date at Buffalo Billiards to their picture-perfect wedding at the Logan Hotel, every moment has been filled with laughter and love. From supporting Jason’s NFL career to raising their three daughters, Kylie has been the ultimate MVP, both on and off the field. As Jason reflected on his retirement, he credits Kylie with bringing out the best in him, from love and devotion to the occasional “swift kick in the a–.”
But it’s not just touchdowns and trophies that define their love story. It’s the everyday moments—the late-night diaper changes, the impromptu dance parties in the living room, and the shared laughter that fills their home with warmth. Whether it’s Kylie joking about Jason’s infamous flip-flop attire or Jason playfully teasing Kylie about her Irish dance skills, their relationship is an expression of the power of love, laughter, and a healthy dose of sarcasm. Her down-to-earth nature and genuine love for her family shine through, making her not just Jason’s wife, but a beloved figure in her own right.
