Jason Kelce shared the news during ESPN’s Media Day 2024, Wednesday, as the former Philadelphia Eagles center spoke about what’s instore for the family now that he’s retired and what’s anchoring him to the city.
“You spend so much time as a player being on the field with the fans,” Kelce told media outlets, including People, at ESPN Headquarters in Bristol, Connecticut. “I was fortunate, I was in Philadelphia for 13 years and the community is where my wife and I live.”
“We want to keep living in Philadelphia,” he said. Kelce and his wife, Kylie, share their home with three young daughters – Wyatt, Elliotte and Bennett.
The couple tied the knot in 2018, also in Philadelphia.
On more than one occasion, the couple shared glimpses inside their home, including their daughters’ playroom, which not coincidentally, sported an Eagles green color palette.
“The memories that we’re creating now are things that we’ll talk about later, the same way our parents tell stories about us now,” Kylie Kelce told People. “We hope that this space allows for the girls to be a good team together.”
“Shockingly enough we are big fans of green,” she said.
Their garage, which they formerly called the “Kelce landfill,” also received a facelift thanks to a recent partnership with The Container Store.
“You would open the door, throw something in, and close it,” Kelce said. “We couldn’t ever find anything and now it is an actual functional space.”
