“Not a great reputation”: Kylie Kelce reveals her father had doubts about Jason Kelce

The first meeting of a father with his daughter’s boyfriend is a very difficult and embarrassing meeting, with high stakes, even for Jason Kalce, despite his charming personality. Kylie Kelce and Jason Kelce met on a dating app in 2024, when she was in college and he was already in Philadelphia. Kylie discussed this big challenge with her father on her podcast "Not Gonna Lie", the moment that many lovers definitely don't want to face.

Jason Kelce remained unconcerned during his first meeting with Kylie Kelce's parents, despite her father's skepticism. Kylie Kelce and Jason Kelce met on a dating app in 2014. Recently, Kylie shared deets about their first meeting on her Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce Podcast, describing how Jason 'nailed' meeting her parents for the first time.

In her podcast, Kylie shared the origins of her date and her family's initial impression of Jason. "Jason first met my family at my aunt's house in North East Philadelphia," Kylie said, responding to a fan question. "I extended an invitation to him because my family always has an open door policy for whoever wants to come and I thought, for sure, that he would say no."
She added, "And then he didn't,' she added. 'He showed up and he ended up with him in an above-ground pool in the front of my aunt's. So he actually nailed that first impression. My family thought he was a good time, he was very sweet. And it eased my dad's worries about the fact that I was dating a professional athlete because, you know, not a great reputation going on for them.”
Kylie Kelce also shared in a previous episode where Jason would walk across her campus at Cabrini University after spending the night at her dorm, leaving other students puzzled. "I met Jason on Tinder while I was still in college which is hilarious," Kylie shared. "And he would come to campus. He stayed over in my dorm more than once."

"When I tell you I would have people in class two days later say, 'Oh, so-and-so was talking about how they were walking to their 8am and saw Jason Kelce walking across campus to go to his truck,'' she continued.
