Kylie Kelce shuns Negative stereotypes
Kylie Kelce speaks out against being labeled a WAG in the NFL.
Jason and Kylie Kelce have been together for a while now. Kylie’s ties to the NFL began when she started dating Jason back in 2015. Jason has always been a part of the Philadelphia Eagles throughout his career. The couple got married in 2018 and have three daughters: Wyatt, Elliotte, and Bennett.
However, there’s something that bothers Kylie when people talk about her. She doesn’t like it when she and other women are referred to by a common nickname – WAG, which stands for wives and girlfriends. She feels that it brings along a lot of negative stereotypes that she doesn’t want to be associated with. It’s something that really bothers her.
Kylie explained, “I think, for the most part, there’s a stereotype of WAGs… That everything is designer. That they are with their significant others for reasons other than that they truly love them-honestly, that’s the part that deeply bothers me.”
The issue came up during a resurfaced New Heights podcast episode that was shared on Reddit. Her brother-in-law, Travis Kelce, asked her how she felt about being called a WAG. Kylie didn’t hold back and simply said, “I don’t like it.” Travis assured her, “We’re not calling you that,” while Jason jokingly added, “I am,” and they all had a good laugh about it.
