Jason Kelce’s fame has only skyrocketed after switching an NFL playing career for being a sports broadcaster

Jason and Kylie Kelce

Kylie Kelce has shown concern for her three daughters due to her and her husband Jason’s increased fame.

Jason Kelce enjoyed a legendary NFL career that saw him claim a Superbowl ring and come close to a second, ultimately losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in early 2023.

Kelce retired at the end of last season and ahead of his retirement he formed a hugely successful podcast with brother Travis, named ‘New Heights’. The likely Hall of Fame center is a much-loved figure in Philadelphia, but his reach now expands across the nation.

He is now working with ESPN on their Monday Night Football coverage and other broadcasts while continuing to set records with his podcast.

Wife Kylie has gained fame as a result of all that, also featuring on the ‘Kelce’ documentary series. Appearing on ‘Good Morning America’ about her work with the Eagles Autism Foundation, Kelce spoke about the family’s fame and how her three daughters Wyatt Elizabeth, Elliotte Ray and Bennett Llewellyn, are handling it.

“I think, ultimately our girls, much like the rest of world are probably sick of seeing mom and dad,” she said. “But I think they see so many examples of what Jason’s doing. They will come to things for the Eagles Autism Foundation with me. They are surrounded by people who I think are setting really good examples.”

Kelce on his youngest daughter’s name

The Kelces welcomed their youngest child Bennett Llewellyn in March of last year, and Jason was asked about the Welsh-descending second part of the name during a New Heights episode.

“Interesting way of spelling Llewellyn, not gonna lie,” Travis said. Jason responded: “It’s Grandma Mary’s maiden name. I wanted to honor Grandma Mary, who is now resting in peace,” Jason confirmed. “She had a good run.”
