America’s other sweetheart: How Kylie Kelce charmed her husband and Taylor Swift by not taking BS
Over Memorial Day in Margate City, NJ, a fan got irate after Kylie Kelce politely declined to take a photo with her.
“I don’t give a f–k who you are, you’ll never be allowed in this town again!” the woman screamed at Kylie, 32, who was on a date with her husband, retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, 36.
Kylie kept her cool but didn’t hesitate to stand up for herself, telling the woman, “I can smell the alcohol on your breath, you’re embarrassing yourself.”
The moment was captured on video and went viral after the Philadelphia-based “Word to the Wise” podcast obtained a copy.
It perfectly encapsulated what has made Kylie — a mom-of-three, field hockey coach, and influencer — America’s newest sweetheart. Whether she’s dealing with angry fans and inebriated husbands — or hanging out with Taylor Swift and brother-in-law Travis Kelce — Kylie seems to gracefully navigate any situation with quiet grace, strength, kindness, and humor.
She’s remade the role of the WAG from high-maintenance hanger-on to chill girl co-pilot.
“These days you have so many wives of athletes who are so Hollywood — she’s the exact opposite of that,” Denise White, founder and CEO of EAG Sports Management, told The Post.
Insiders who have interacted with Kylie tell The Post she couldn’t be more humble and kind while holding her own.
“That woman probably pushed her to the brink. She is probably the one that keeps her and Jason grounded,” a Pennsylvania-based source close to the field hockey team Kylie coaches told The Post of the New Jersey fracas. “She was probably trying to prevent this woman from royally embarrassing herself.”
