Philly’s Power Couple, Jason and Kylie Kelce, Team Up with Wawa
Jason Kelce, 36, has become the star of a new Wawa advertisement, with his wife Kylie, 32, taking on the director’s role.
In a behind-the-scenes clip shared on social media, Kylie is seen sitting in a director’s chair while Jason is on set. “More emotion, J!” she yells. “Like you mean it!”
The advertisement aims to showcase the couple’s loyalty to Wawa in their daily lives, featuring Jason carrying armfuls of groceries into their house from the car.
“Directing these Wawa commercials with Jason is similar to the way I manage every day with our family,” Kylie said. “I try to go in with a plan, but distractions happen, so we just take everything in stride and do our best.”
She added, “Now that Jason is retired from playing football and our girls are heading back to school, our days at home look so different than they did a year ago at this time. At the end of the day, Jason and I are a team, trying to keep our household running smoothly in all the chaos, just like so many other families.”
The couple, who met on dating app Tinder, got married in 2018. Kylie didn’t realize Jason played pro football until later, and even then, it was only because of a cropped photo on his profile.
“His profile at the time was, something to the effect of, ‘I want to have deep meaningful conversations and talk about getting married and having kids,'” Kylie recalled. “Jokes on him. Who got the last laugh?”
Jason and Kylie have three daughters: Wyatt, 4, Ellie, 3, and Bennett, 18 months. When it comes to expanding their family further, the couple are still undecided.
“We’ll see what the future holds,” Jason said.
