Kylie Kelce wants to make one thing clear: she ‘love(s) and appreciate(s)’ Taylor Swift.
Kelce, the wife of retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, used her own podcast, ‘Not Gonna Lie,’ to clarify the details of a story she told on Alex Cooper’s ‘Call Her Daddy’ podcast earlier this month.
In the episode, Kelce told Cooper she didn’t really eat one of Swift’s famous home-cooked meals while on a double date with Jason, Swift and Swift’s boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end (and Jason’s brother) Travis Kelce, because she was eight weeks pregnant.
One magazine took the liberty to say Kelce had ‘refused’ the ‘home-cooked meal’ in a headline. And in a ‘Not Gonna Lie’ segment that Kelce called ‘(Expletive) Around & Find Out,’ the media personality set the record straight on what actually happened during the double date.
To begin, she explained that the ‘home-cooked meal’ was actually a private dinner that Swift had organized, prepared by an ‘outstanding chef,’ Kelce said.
Kelce, who is still pregnant, emphasized that she did not refuse the meal out of personal choice. Rather, she was experiencing nausea symptoms associated with her pregnancy that at the time ‘suggested that if I consume anything other than crackers,’ it would have caused vomiting.
‘I didn’t refuse anything. I wouldn’t refuse anything, especially if I was without child,’ Kelce said. ‘I would not refuse a home-cooked meal because I love food.’
The ‘Not Gonna Lie’ host went on to criticize the tabloid for ‘trying to pit women against women.’
‘Why are we doing that?’ Kelce said. ‘That seems counterproductive.
‘Anyone that asks me in person, I’m very forthcoming with how much I love and appreciate (Swift) and how much I love the fact that you can tell how happy Travis is. And that’s what I care about. So let’s not pit women against women.’
