Kylie Kelce has revealed that her husband Jason was the first person she met in real life through a dating app.
The high-profile couple have made no secret that they met through dating apps, but Kylie, now 32, revealed she had never been on a Tinder date before meeting the Philadelphia Eagles star.
“I didn't have any horror stories before I met Jason because I had never met anyone from Tinder in person,” she said in her latest podcast episode. “I wasn't there that long. If you're going to go down that path, I wish you all the luck. I think I won Tinder.”
'My friends and I would sit and finger each other while sitting together as a sort of fun activity. I had never been on a date on Tinder. Luckily, there are no horror stories.
'But I don't know if I would recommend online dating nowadays. I'll say the landscape of online dating from when I met Jason 10 years ago to what it is now… I'm so glad I caught it from the beginning.
'I think there's something positive about the fact that you now have so many options. I think that maybe broadens your horizon or maybe you (end up) meeting exactly the same people on all the apps.
'It worked very well for me. I have several friends who are married to someone they met on Tinder or a dating app. But these are people who met in our days.'
But even though Kylie was thankful for her luck, not everything was easy with Jason when he showed up drunk to their first date.
His former Eagles teammate Beau Allen revealed the story last year in an appearance on the New Heights podcast.
“What people don't know is that Kylie and Jason met on Tinder, so for a week or two before they met they were chatting online, Kelce was talking about this girl,” he said.
“He was like, 'I really like this girl, I have to make a good first impression, what should I say to her?' We were at the Christmas party in Philadelphia and Kelce said, 'I'm going to meet this girl.'” The night went a little bit off. and Kelce fell asleep at the bar, dozing.
Kelce responded: 'I know I was sleeping but I remember. I remember fighting with you and laughing out loud. Were you surprised when Kylie agreed to go on a second date with me?
“I was a little surprised,” Allen admitted. “But you're a great guy.”
Now, Jason and Kylie will welcome a fourth child in late 2025 and already have three girls.
