Kylie Kelce’s Poetic Dance with the ‘Mom Gene’ Amid Four Little Girls
A twilight of lullabies and toddler giggles weaves a tapestry of maternal uncertainty as Kylie Kelce admits she’s still composing her “mom gene” refrain. In a confessional turn on the June 24 episode of the House of Maher podcast, the Not Gonna Lie host laid bare her soul, whispering, “I’m still not sure that I have it, to be honest,” before offering her anthem of chaos: “I tell everybody, I’m winging it.” At 33, with four daughters—Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 4, Bennett, 2, and newborn Finnley, 3 months—Kylie’s life unfolds like a sonnet in which every diaper change and snack negotiation feels like writing with ink on water.
She and hockey star Jason Kelce, married in 2018, once proclaimed they’d stop at a Kelce party of six, yet here they are, basking in the echo of tiny coos. Before motherhood, Kylie confessed she was a fervent recruiter for motherhood’s ranks—“Give me all the babies,” she’d muse in college—yet now she ambles through the hallways of home, questioning every crumb distributed and every bedtime ritual. On her May 29 Not Gonna Lie podcast, she conceded that Google is her confidant and parenting forums her secret counsel, quipping, “When people ask me what my advice is, I actually still have no idea what I’m doing.”
Even in the splendor of the 2024 Paris Olympics, a momentary escape without her brood transformed into an aching void. She needed the pitter-patter of little feet so badly that she perched at the edge of French benches, filling the silence by doting on the coach’s daughters. “My hands didn’t know what to do—no water bottles, no snacks,” she laughed, the longing palpable in her voice. That candid memory, shared on House of Maher, offered a rare glimpse into a mother who oscillates between empowerment and doubt.
The Kelces’ journey began in October 2019 with daughter Wyatt, followed by Elliotte in 2021 and Bennett in February 2023, arriving just two weeks after Jason’s Super Bowl saga. Finnley, their spring blossom, joined the family on March 30, 2025, draped in a floral onesie that Kylie cherishes like a stanza of new verse. As Kylie soaks in every coo and gurgle, she hovers between poetic awe and pragmatic Googling. The Eagles Autism Foundation advocate may doubt her parenthood prowess, but she pours her devotion into each sunrise, each bedtime story, each imperfect yet heartfelt measure of love. And so the lullaby drifts into the dusk, leaving her “mom gene” an unfinished poem, suspended in the hush between one giggle and the next.
