Jason Kelce has opened up on his excitement for the arrival of his fourth child, after his wife Kylie announced she is pregnant last week.
The couple have three daughters – Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 3, and Bennet, who is just 20 months – and a fourth girl is on the way in 2025.
Speaking to E News, the NFL hero said: ‘I got it pretty easy. I’m not gonna lie.
‘There’s another girl, so the clothes are all going to be hand-me-downs or already bought.
‘The crib is already situated. So we’re pretty set. Kylie’s definitely preparing more than I am, because she’s actually growing the human being.
‘I love my kids so much, and especially my daughters. I was telling somebody out there because they’re expecting their first—and they look at you. They smile at you.
‘There’s just a way that kids have to warm your soul in a way that nothing else can.
‘And it’s been such a blessing to have three healthy, smart, wonderful children. And hopefully we’ll welcome a fourth into this world, and we’ll be able to watch them fight and tear each other apart and all the good stuff.’
Kelce was congratulated on the news by Scott van Pelt on his weekly Monday Night Football appearance on ESPN, where he was working as an analyst ahead of Baltimore Ravens vs Los Angeles Chargers.
Coincidentally, Kelce and his team were asked to do a gender reveal for two Ravens fans in the crowd near the ESPN studio, and he announced they were having a baby boy.
After 13 years in the NFL with Philadelphia Eagles, Kelce retired earlier this year in the offseason and took on the analyst role with ESPN.
His New Heights podcast with brother Travis is also going from strength to strength, with the duo signing a $100m deal this year to continue it.
But next week, they are going to be competing with a new rival in the podcast market in Kylie herself.
She announced on Monday that her own show – called ‘Not Gonna Lie’ – will launch next week, on Dec. 5.
It will, she says, allow her to ‘share her personal story beyond being just a “football wife,” setting the record straight on gossip and speaking out on modern parenting, social media trends, women in sports, and more.’
‘I’m excited to have conversations with fascinating people and create a platform where I can be unapologetically myself while also setting the record straight on the many stories that circulate about my family,’ she said.
