Super Bowl Player Bringing Very Pregnant Wife's Doctor to This Weekend's Big Game — Just in Case
"It could be a super Kelce bowl. If she has a baby in the stadium, it's officially scripted."
Brothers Travis and Jason Kelce are making history as the first siblings to play against each other in the Super Bowl. But that’s not the only history being made this Sunday. Jason Kelce's wife, Kylie McDevitt, who is 38 weeks pregnant — just two weeks short of the average period of pregnancy — will be bringing her OB-GYN to the big game.
The Philadelphia Eagles center spoke about his wife's unconventional Super Bowl LVII guest on the 25th episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, a podcast he co-hosts with his brother Travis.
The brothers were discussing their family members that would be watching from the sidelines, including their parents, children, and in-laws, when Jason dropped a shocker into the conversation.
"Kylie's bringing her OB-GYN because she's going to be 38 weeks pregnant at the game," he stated. "That could be a super Kelce bowl. If she has a baby in the stadium, it's officially scripted."
"We're in the Matrix," laughed Travis Kelce, tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs.
McDevitt and Jason Kelce already have two daughters together and are looking forward to welcoming the third "Kelce lady" this month.
The brothers chatted about having their family members at the 2023 Super Bowl and them having to split their support for the two brothers. "Are mom and dad sitting on your sideline or are they sitting on my sideline?" Jason joked.
"We do have to figure that out because we each get a certain amount of tickets, and I feel like you're going to have more of a family-oriented thing," Travis replied.

"I'm bringing Kylie's parents, and I'm bringing the girls," Jason shared, referring to his wife Kylie and daughters Wyatt, 3, and Elliotte Ray, 22 months.
Super Bowl Babies Two Seasons in a Row?
The couple isn’t taking any chances with the pregnancy. Kylie is bringing her obstetrician-gynecologist to the on the chance should she may go into labor.
Taking all necessary precautions is a logical plan after what happened at last year’s big game. In 2022, Samaria Jefferson, wife of Los Angeles Rams receiver Van Jefferson, made headlines when she went into labor while her husband played in the Super Bowl.
"I did not want to miss the game for anything," she told PEOPLE Magazine. She remained at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, until her contractions were two minutes apart, and was then taken to a local hospital in an ambulance.
"To have a baby on Super Bowl day…and win the Super Bowl too is a blessing," Van said.
The Kansas City Chiefs head to Glendale, Arizona after defeating the Cincinnati Bengals, 23-20, in the AFC Championship game. They’ll face off against the Philadelphia Eagles, who beat on the San Francisco 49ers, 31-7, in the NFC Championship.
And if another Kelce family member wants to join the big game and make the day even more memorable, the family — and OB-GYN —will be ready.
Military Dad Defends His 4 Little Daughters When Strangers Make This Rude Remark
Military Dad of 4 Daughters Defends His Girls When Strangers Make This Rude Remark
Austin von Letkemann is the military officer strangers feel "sorry" for — and the reason is infuriating.
Whenever the devoted father leaves the house with his four children, strangers can't help but notice the officer in uniform is holding hands with 4 adorable little girls. They will tell the traditionally "masculine" and "all American" dad they feel sorry for him, because he has no sons. This dad makes one thing very clear: They are his daughters, they aren't a burden.
In a passionate video, von Letkemann took to Instagram to share with his followers that the only thing that's "difficult" about being a girl dad — is clapping back to these sexist remarks over and over again.
They Mock His Daughters To Their Face
When strangers approach Austin von Letkemann and his four daughters, they don't always realize that their comments are being overheard. They seem oblivious to the fact that his girls understand every word. Von Letkemann describes how people will approach him and, without thinking, make remarks like "I'm sorry" or even joke about his lack of sons. What they don't realize is that these comments, intended to be light-hearted or humorous, can be deeply hurtful to his daughters. These strangers are not just disrespecting von Letkemann's choices as a father; they're also sending a message to his daughters that their presence is something to be pitied. It’s a message that von Letkemann won't stand for, and he's speaking out to defend his girls from these insensitive remarksSaying "Get Your Shotgun" Isn't Funny — It's Sexist
Another common comment that Austin von Letkemann encounters is the old "better get your shotgun ready" trope, often delivered with a smirk or a wink. This line is typically intended to suggest that a father with daughters should be on high alert to protect them from potential "suitors," implying that they are objects to be guarded rather than individuals with agency.
Von Letkemann finds this line of thinking outdated and sexist. In his viral Instagram video, he points out that these jokes are not just stale — they're damaging.
By suggesting that his daughters require armed protection, the joke reinforces the idea that women are inherently vulnerable and need to be shielded from men. Von Letkemann argues that instead of promoting this narrative, society should focus on teaching respect and consent, challenging these sexist tropes at their source.
