As an event consultant and mother of three, Kylie Kelce is much more than the housekeeper; she asked her husband, NFL icon Jason Kelce.
In response to recent criticism directed at his wife, the former Philadelphia Eagles took to X, formerly known as Twitter, defending his honor and his marriage with a strong message. “I don't think of Kylie as a housewife, I consider her my wife. “I think of her as a mother,” he stated in a May 27 post.
“She has an occupation, like me, and we maintain our house as best we can. “Our marriage is a partnership, we are equals and we discover it daily,” she continued. “The only expectation is that we love each other, support each other and be committed to our family, that comes first. “We both raise our children, we both work and we both maintain our homes.”
On May 26, Kylie was the subject of a crude comment from an Internet sleuth, who labeled her an inadequate “housewife.” The forceful women in the workforce.
“Your wife is a housewife. But you can't support Butker. And your wife is a housewife whose home is a mess. I'm sorry, but the television is dirty and messy. It seems like you're a bit of a hypocrite. You're all going to be nothing but fast. You just ruined your job. It's a shame,” wrote the Internet user.
Jason quickly closed the judgment, adding that when his house is “messy” it's not his wife's fault. “It's both our faults, it's a mess, but that's life with 3 little kids, busy schedules and neither of us are neat freaks,” the professional athlete said.
While the 36-year-old father doesn't consider Kylie the “housewife,” he acknowledged that some families prefer a dynamic where one person is responsible for maintaining the home.
The now-retired NFL player addressed Butker's May 11 comments with his brother Travis on their podcast: new heights.
“I don't agree with a lot of the things he said in his commencement speech, but he was giving a commencement speech at a Catholic university and, surprisingly, it ended up being a very religious and Catholic speech,” Jason noted. to Travis, one of Butker's teammates on the Kansas City Chiefs. Meanwhile, Travis admitted that he disagreed with “almost any” of Butker's points.
Fourteen days after Butker, 28, gave his commencement speech, the football kicker spoke out to support the message he delivered.
During Nashville's “Courage Under Fire” event, Butker said, “If it wasn't clear that many hate eternal Catholic values, it is now.
“Over the last few days, my beliefs, or what people think I believe, have been the center of countless discussions around the world,” he added. “At first, many people expressed a shocking level of hatred. But as the days passed, even those who disagreed with my views shared their support for my freedom of religion.
“Our love for Jesus, and therefore our desire to speak clearly, must never be overcome by the longing of our fallen nature to be loved by the world.”
Aside from Butker's shared thoughts on the role of women in the home, the young competitor characterized Pride Month as a “mortal sin” for the Benedictine Class of 2024 and their families.
