Jason Kelce’s first date with his wife, Kylie, was a disaster. Beau Allen tells the side of the story ‘people don’t know

Jason may not be a born and bred Philadelphian — the NFL star was raised in Cleveland Heights, Ohio — but he is firmly rooted in the City of Brotherly Love. The Super Bowl champ was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2011 and has played 12 seasons with the team. He is affectionally known city-wide (and beyond!) as the “King of Philly.”

In Kelce, a documentary by Amazon Prime Video, Kylie spoke about meeting her husband on Tinder, admitting that she didn’t initially know that the person she matched with was an athlete. “None of his pictures showed Eagles football,” she said.During a September 2023 podcast episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, she talked about spotting him on the app.

“His profile at the time was something along the lines of, ‘I want to have deep meaningful conversations and talk about getting married and having kids,’ ” she recalled.
