Kylie Kelce, the wife of Philadelphia Eagles great Jason Kelce, shared her thoughts on Harrison Butker’s faith-based commencement speech at Benedictine College last month, which sparked wide debate. 

The Kansas City Chiefs kicker's speech, during which he urged women graduates to embrace being a "homemaker," led to attacks from those who believed he was diminishing the role of women in communities. 

Kelce, who was working with the Eagles Autism Foundation to share activities with kids on and off the spectrum on Thursday, was asked during an interview what she thought about Butker’s speech, especially being a mother of three.

"I think that everyone is entitled to their own opinion," she said, via Cheddar. "I hope that, if anyone does not align with those views in that graduating class, that they know they achieved something. Those women graduating in that class have achieved something that no one can take away from them. Their education will stick with them for the rest of their lives. I hope that they were appropriately celebrated if that was not their view.

"If it was, and they’re looking forward to making a family and being a stay-at-home mom, then more power to them.

"I think, as women, we should support each other in our choices and make sure that we feel as though we can do whatever we would like to do," she said.

"So, hopefully, those graduating know that, at the very least, I’m very proud of them and hope that they go on to do whatever makes their heart happy."

Butker recently stood by his commencement speech while making his first public appearance since his time at Benedictine College. He appeared at the Courage Under Fire Gala in Nashville, Tennessee, in late May, which was presented by the Regina Caeli Academy. It's an institution that "encourages our students to strive for excellence in academics as well as in virtuous living, self-discipline and accountability through a classical education taught in the light of the Catholic tradition."

"The theme for tonight’s gala, ‘Courage Under Fire,' was decided many months ago, but it now feels providential that this would be the theme after what we have all witnessed these last two weeks," Butker said. "If it wasn’t clear that the timeless Catholic values are hated by many, it is now."

Butker continued by saying he understands he’s become a "more polarizing" figure because he spoke about his beliefs, but he won’t be changing them for anyone. 

"Our love for Jesus, and thus, our desire to speak out, should never be outweighed by the longing of our fallen nature to be loved by the world," he said. "Glorifying God and not ourselves should always remain our motivation despite any pushback or even support. I lean on those closest to me for guidance, but I can never forget that it is not people, but Jesus Christ who I’m trying to please."

Butker’s Chiefs peers have defended his character despite their differences in views, including Kelce’s brother-in-law, star tight end Travis Kelce.

"I’ve known him for seven-plus years, probably, eight-plus years. And I cherish him as a teammate," Kelce said of Butker, whom he calls "Harry." 

"I think Pat [Mahomes] said it best, where he is every bit of a great person and a great teammate. He’s treated friends and family that I’ve introduced to him with nothing but respect and kindness, and that’s how he treats everyone.

"I can’t say I agree with the majority of [the speech] or just about any of it, outside of just him loving his family and his kids. And I don’t think that I should judge him by his views, especially his religious views, of how to go about life. That’s just not who I am."

With her husband retiring after the most recent NFL season, Kylie Kelce continues to work on helping her community with the Eagles Autism Foundation, which was created by Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, who drew inspiration for the project from his autistic brother.
