Kylie Kelce addressed “the elephant in the room” and revealed who she’ll support as the Chiefs take on the Eagles in Super Bowl 2025.
During the latest installment of the “Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce” podcast, the Philadelphia native and wife of former Eagles center Jason Kelce explained that the couple’s three daughters — Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 3 and Bennett, who will turn 2 on Feb. 23 — will wear “Go Uncle Trav” shirts to support her brother-in-law, Chiefs тιԍнт end Travis Kelce.
However, Kylie explained she can’t bring herself to support the Chiefs because she was “raised to bleed green” while growing up in Narberth, a suburb in Philadelphia.
“Ultimately the plan is to go to the game and to cheer,” Kylie, 32, said. “I will say we have made moves to get the girls ‘Go Uncle Trav’ shirts because they love their uncle and of course they love cheering him on. And to be fair, they love cheering on the Birds, too.
“But he is our family and I want to make sure that the girls feel included. But I will add on that any other week when I see Chiefs fans, I will tell them ‘Go Chiefs.’ But I will not be saying that for the next two weeks. I can’t bring myself to do it.
“… I’m not having fun. Like I’m having fun independently. I’m having fun as an Eagles fan. I’m having fun as a Travis fan. This is hard. I don’t like but also, it’s very exciting. But I’m mad about it. I feel like i’m having a manic episode.”
Kylie, who’s pregnant with the couple’s fourth daughter, explained how things are different after Jason retired last March after spending his entire 13-year career with Philadelphia.
“This time when the Eagles play the Chiefs it is a little bit different because my husband is retired from the Eagles. That being said, I am so happy and proud of Travis and the Chiefs’ accomplishments,” Kylie said. “I think that the opportunity to play for such a historic milestone is incredible to be able to potentially witness… I love him. He’s my family so I will always cheer on Travis’ accomplishments and hopefully successes.
“That being said, I was raised to bleed green, I have friends who are still ᴀssociated with the team, and I have a close relationships with a lot of people in the Eagles organization. I get to live in the Philadelphia community, so I will also be cheering for the success of those people.”
Kylie and Jason — who won a Super Bowl with the Eagles in the 2017 season — live in a suburb in Philadelphia with their four daughters.
Jason and Travis faced off in Super Bowl 2023 when the Chiefs beat the Eagles 38-35 in Glendale, Az.
Kansas City went on to defeat the 49ers in overtime in Super Bowl 2024, which took place in Las Vegas.
That year, Kylie wore a red Cincinnati Bearcats shirt to the big game because she refused to wear Chiefs gear.
Kansas City is on the brink of a historic three-peat, and Travis is chasing his fourth championship ring.
“I would be lying if I said I don’t want the Eagles to win,” Jason said during the latest installment of his and Travis’ “New Heights” podcast. “I want them too, but I also want Travis Kelce to win.”
Jason explained that he’ll be supporting his brother while also cheering on his beloved Eagles on Feb. 9 in New Orleans.
“Here’s the biggest thing, obviously, you’re my brother, I’ll always root for my brother. That’s the reality of it,” Jason said. “Even though I’m decked out in Eagles gear, I’m always going to root for Travis, but, there’s a lot of people in the Philadelphia organization — whether it’s players, coaches, people in the building — that feel like extended family to me, especially my former linemen.
“Like, Lane Johnson feels like a brother in a lot of ways. I’m rooting for those guys, too. I’m rooting for Philadelphia and I’m rooting for Travis Kelce. That’s the reality of it. No matter what, on game day, I’m going to be happy for one of those sides and I’m going to be sad for the other side.”
