Inside Jason Kelce and Kylie Kelce's relationship

In late 2014, Jason and Kylie met on the dating app Tinder, and four years later, they married in April 2018.

The couple welcomed three children, daughters Wyatt, four, Elliotte, three, and Bennett, one.

During his emotional speech announcing his retirement, he recalled the first time he met his wife at a bar after the Eagles holiday party.

"I still remember the moment she walked through the door. The first instance is burned in my retina," he shared.

"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?’ She was beautiful and smart, serious, yet playful. I knew it right away," he added.

Crediting Kylie for being able to enjoy the best years of his career, Jason said, "I think it's no coincidence I have enjoyed my best years of my career with Kylie by my side. Every accolade I have ever received has come with her in my life."

"She has brought the best out of me through love, devotion, support, honesty, intelligence, and, of course, the swift kick in the ass from time to time. She has also given me three beautiful girls and a life that increasingly brings me more fulfillment off the field than it does on. We've had a great run, Ky," he added, according to ET.
