Jason Kelce and his wife, Kylie, have an adorable love story. The couple originally met on Tinder, with the latter making the first move! At the time, Kelce had been an NFL player for two years. They met in 2015, and after a few dates, they knew their bond was something special.

However, for the first time, Kylie Kelce revealed the key trait that prompted her to make the first move on Jason. Hint: It’s a physical trait. Kylie revealed that Kelce’s 6’3″ stature caught her eye. His height was not the only reason; the former Eagles center had a sarcastic bio to go with the big, gruffy-guy look, a combination that piqued Kylie’s interest.

One of the reasons why I swiped right was because he had all these pictures with people next to him and I was like, ‘Oh, he is a big boy.’

Kylie said during her appearance on The House of Maher podcast with Ilona Maher

As a 5’11” woman, it was important for Kylie that her partner be taller than her, and Kelce perfectly matched the description! She admitted that height was a feature that she “wouldn’t budge on” in her potential partner. But if not for Kelce’s witty bio, Kylie would have perhaps reconsidered swiping on his profile.

I want to have long conversations and talk about having babies.

Kelce most certainly has a way with words! Fortunately, he managed to accomplish everything he said in his bio! Nearly ten years after their first meeting, the couple has managed to build a happy family with four adorable daughters!

Jason and Kylie Kelce had their fourth daughter recently

The couple’s eldest daughter is Wyatt Elizabeth, second-eldest is Elliotte Ray, third is Bennett Llewellyn, and they recently had Finnley ‘Finn’ Anne. Kylie could not help but crown Jason as the “King of Manifestation” for going on to achieve exactly what his Tinder bio said!

The former field hockey player heaved a sigh of relief that she met her life partner years before the online dating scene turned in a negative direction. Tinder launched in 2012, so in 2015, users were on an app that did not have as many options as the platform has today. For instance, if a user swipes left on a profile, today there is an option to reverse that action. However, that option was not available in 2015.

I’m very grateful that I’m not on dating apps right now…I’ve heard the voice memos when they’re funny. I have heard creepy ones…But it does seem weird.

Kelce told the Maher sisters

The couple is one of a handful to have found true love on dating apps. The Kelces have proved to be the gold standard for NFL couples. Despite the center’s retirement, the couple has just ramped up their efforts to do good. Jason and Kylie are actively raising money for the Eagles Autism Foundation. So far, they have managed to raise over $800,000, a significant increase compared to last year’s total collection of $375,000.

Kelce has thrived since retirement. He has not allowed it to slow him down. From inking a $100 million deal with Amazon to gain rights to the New Heights podcast to hosting his own show, the Super Bowl champion has been doing it all. Kelce continues to enjoy life and invests in things that he loves, such as beer!

His wife, Kylie, serves as the announcer on the They Call it Late Night show. However, the most impressive aspect of Kylie is her entrepreneurial spirit. She recently launched her podcast titled Not Gonna Lie, and the show has become an instant hit! In the first week, her podcast overtook the likes of the Joe Rogan Experience to become the most-watched in America.
