Jason, who has three young daughters with his wife Kylie, defended Butker and said he could ‘take great value in it when he is talking about the importance of family and the importance of a great mother’.But the recently retired Philadelphia Eagles star also insisted parts of Butker’s speech ‘are not things that I align myself with’.
That has led to criticism from social media trolls, who accused Kelce of being ‘hypocritical’ and suggested his wife Kylie is ‘a homemaker’.He posted on X: ‘Responding to this, because I have seen a number of people say it.
‘I don’t think of Kylie as a homemaker, I think of her as my wife. I think of her as a mother. She has an occupation, as do I, and we keep our house the best we can.
‘Our marriage is a partnership, we are equals who are figuring it out on the daily. The only expectation is that we love each other, support one another, and are committed to our family, that comes first.
‘We both raise our kids, we both work, we both keep our home. It is both our faults it is messy, but such is life with 3 young children, busy schedules, and neither of us being neat freaks. She also makes a mean sandwich.
