How did Kylie and Jason Kelce meet?

Kylie Kelce made her debut on Jason and brother Travis Kelce’s joint podcast “New Heights” in September 2023 and shared their relationship origins.

The couple met on Tinder. Kylie Kelce said she didn’t know who Kelce was, since none of his pictures had photos from the Philadelphia Eagles.

“Well, his profile at the time was something to the effect of: ‘I want to have deep meaningful conversations and talk about getting married and having kids’ or something like that,” she said.

They swiped right and made plans to meet up at a bar. Their first date admittedly didn’t go according to plan, Kylie Kelce said, after Jason Kelce got a bit too tipsy.

“You fell asleep 45 minutes after I got there on the bar table because he was too drunk,” she said.

“Not a good first date,” Jason Kelce replied. Still, he knew what was in front of him: “(I) got a little bit too inebriated, but I was sober enough to know it was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my life. It was love at first sight,” he said.

Jason Kelce shared more of the meet-cute from his perspective during his retirement speech.

“I still remember the moment she walked through the door. The first instance is burned in my retina,” he continued. “It was like she glided through the opening, an aura around her.”

“Then she started talking and I thought, ‘Man, is this what love feels like?’” he recalled. “She was beautiful and smart, serious yet playful. I knew it right away.

In 2015, Kylie Kelce shared a photo of them with the caption, “Thank goodness you swiped right.”
