Alright, folks, let’s talk about how a completely normal, pregnancy-related food aversion somehow turned into a full-blown internet controversy. Because if there’s one thing people love, it’s a headline that makes something out of nothing. And this time, the target? Kylie Kelce—wife of Eagles legend Jason Kelce and, apparently, someone who must now defend herself for “not” eating Taylor Swift’s home-cooked meal.
Yep, you heard that right. A recent *Parade* article ran with the headline: “”Why Kylie Kelce Refused to Eat Taylor Swift’s Home-Cooked Meal on Double Date with Singer.”” The implication? Drama. The reality? Kylie was pregnant and could barely stomach anything but crackers.
Kylie addressed the whole situation head-on in her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast, specifically in her “F*** Around and Find Out” segment (which, let’s be honest, already tells you exactly where she stands on nonsense like this). She pointed out that she had already explained everything in an episode of “Call Her Daddy”, but since people were still running with this “she refused Taylor’s food” angle, she decided to set the record straight—again.
So, what actually happened? According to Kylie, the infamous “home-cooked meal” wasn’t even part of the double date—it was a separate, privately catered dinner. The meals Taylor personally made? Kylie didn’t eat them “not” because she was being rude, but because she was eight weeks pregnant and deep in the throes of morning sickness. As she put it, “Anyone that has experienced pregnancy nausea knows that it’s not a choice.”
She went on to joke that she lived off crackers, much like plenty of other women in their first trimester, and emphasized that she would “never” turn down a home-cooked meal—except maybe if it involved beets. And for the record, she “did” eat something Taylor made: funfetti pancakes, which she said were “so good” and very much baby-approved.
But beyond the pregnancy nausea, Kylie was clearly annoyed by the bigger issue here: the need to create unnecessary drama between women. “Why are we trying to pit women against women?” she asked, calling out the article’s misleading narrative. “That seems dumb and counterproductive.”
She also made it clear that she absolutely supports Taylor and, more importantly, loves how happy she makes Travis. “That’s what I care about,” she said, shutting down any rumors of tension.
Oh, and in case that wasn’t enough of a newsworthy tidbit, Kylie also casually revealed that her husband, Jason Kelce, is “not” her emergency contact. Gasp! Instead, she has her mother listed, and the reasoning is actually pretty solid—Jason gets so many random phone calls that he’s conditioned to ignore unfamiliar numbers. If something urgent happened, Kylie’s mom would call “him”, and “then” he’d pick up.
So, what did we learn today? Kylie Kelce is not here for fake headlines, she “will” clap back when necessary, and Taylor Swift’s funfetti pancakes are a hit. Oh, and Jason Kelce’s phone is basically a lost cause unless your number is saved. Case closed.
