Kylie Kelce is hitting back at rumors that she’s expecting a new baby, while also opening up about a previous pregnancy loss.
The 32-year-old wife of retired NFL star Jason Kelce took to social media Friday to shoot down the speculation about her body.
“I have had a number of articles written about me since the middle of last football season, stating that I am pregnant. I’m not,” she said in a new TikTok video. “I haven’t been pregnant since I gave birth to Bennie, and she’s almost a year and a half old.”
@kyliekelce ***Trigger warning: pregnancy loss. I have been congratulated in person multiple times. I have been questioned by strangers. Most aggressively, I was DM’d by a random woman asking “did you have a miscarriage?” because one of the news outlets that said I was pregnant doubled back and claimed I hadn’t announced it because I had had a miscarriage. Let’s do better.
The philanthropist — who shares daughters Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 3, and Bennett, 16 months, with the former football star — wrote in the caption of the video that she has been congratulated in person and questioned by strangers about her reported pregnancy.
“Most aggressively, I was DM’d by a random woman asking, ‘Did you have a miscarriage?’ because one of the news outlets that said I was pregnant doubled back and claimed I hadn’t announced it because I had had a miscarriage,” she wrote.
“I cannot stand people writing such insensitive articles about such a sensitive topic,” she continued in the video. “Really lights my fire.”
She then went on to share that she has in fact lost a baby in the early stages of pregnancy, though it was years ago — before she and Jason gave birth to their first child.
“I had a miscarriage before Wyatt. I went in for my 13-week ultrasound, there was no heartbeat, and I had to have a D&E a few days later,” Kylie said, referring to the common surgical abortion procedure — known as dilation and evacuation — often used after miscarriage.
“So I do not take getting pregnant or trying to get pregnant lightly,” she concluded. “I think that we just need to be in agreement that this is not a topic that anyone needs to be first on reporting. Let the parents say it when they’re good and ready.”
