Kylie Kelce has delivered a sharp retort to online critics questioning her and husband Jason's decision to give their four daughters gender-neutral names. The mother of four did not hold back during a recent episode of her podcast, making her feelings on the unsolicited opinions perfectly clear.
A Question of "Pure Rage Bait"
During an episode of her 'Not Gonna Lie' podcast, a listener submitted a question asking "why they had given their daughters 'boy names'." Kylie was quick to label the query as "pure rage bait." She explained the couple's reasoning with definitive clarity, stating, "We, my husband and I, liked gender-neutral names for our daughters."
The former Philadelphia Eagles star and his wife, married since 2018, are parents to Wyatt, 6, Elliotte, 4, Bennett, 2, and their youngest daughter, Finn, who is just seven months old. Kylie's primary issue was with the very notion that her family's personal choices were up for public debate. "I actually didn't ask. I didn't ask what you thought about my kids' names," she asserted.
A Unified Front in Parenting
Emphasising that the name choices were a joint decision, Kylie noted the difficulty of the task, adding, "My husband and I agreed on the names. We like them. You, honestly, you should try naming a human being. It's not easy. And so, yeah, I'm good."
This display of a united front extends beyond baby names. Jason recently gave fans a glimpse into their parenting style on his own podcast, New Heights. The ESPN analyst revealed, "We're on the same page almost all the time. We're both pretty disciplinarian when it comes to the girls."
The Challenge of Discipline
However, the Super Bowl champion was honest about the challenges of maintaining that discipline. He confessed that his resolve often melts away when faced with his daughters. "When I first found out I was having Wyatt, I was like, 'Okay. I'm not gonna raise her any different than how I would raise a boy,'" Jason explained.
He continued, "Then the moment she came out, it was very hard to not be that dad… it is very difficult when they look at me a certain way to not cave, like, instantaneously." This candid admission highlights the balancing act the couple faces between their disciplinarian ideals and the natural softness of parenthood.
