Jason Kelce may be an NFL legend, but when it comes to his daughters’ names, he’s still working on getting it just right. In a recent episode of Kylie Kelce’s podcast Not Gonna Lie, the mom of four revealed that her husband, Jason, still spells their daughter Bennett’s nickname “Bennie” with a “y” instead of the correct “ie.”
Kylie, 34, was chatting about family life and naming their new dog when she jokingly called out Jason, 38, for continuing to spell Bennie’s name wrong. “He still spells Bennie’s name with a ‘y.’ We’re not in agreement on that,” Kylie said with a laugh, adding, “Luckily, lucky for her, I fill out all the paperwork. So suck it. He just likes things that are straightforward.”
It seems that while Jason may be a pro on the field, he’s still adjusting to the nuances of parenting at home. Bennie, who is just 2 years old, is the third child of the couple, and her nickname has become a sweet part of the Kelce family’s daily routine—though Jason’s spelling of it remains a sticking point.
A Glimpse Into the Kelce Family Dynamic
The Kelce family, which also includes their daughters Wyatt, 6, Elliotte, 5, and Finnley, 12 months, often shares glimpses of their family moments on social media. Kylie Kelce, a busy mom with a thriving podcast and a growing family, gives fans insight into their parenting style and family dynamics, which often include playful banter and plenty of love.
Earlier this week, Jason shared a rare and heartwarming clip of his daughter Wyatt practicing her golf swing on Instagram. The moment captured the daddy-daughter bond as Jason proudly watched Wyatt take her first swing with a real golf club, ahead of the 2026 Masters Tournament. “Excited for The Masters this week, so went out to the MGOLF driving range on West Chester Pike last night with Wyatt,” Jason wrote in the post. “It was her first time with a real club, and I’ve never seen a prettier swing. She also won closest to the pin and got a mint chocolate chip waffle cone as a result.”
Wyatt’s uncle, Travis Kelce, also made a cameo in the video, cheering her on from behind the camera. “Look at that, girlie!” he said after Wyatt’s successful swing. Travis couldn’t resist commenting on Wyatt’s unique golf attire either, playfully noting, “New golf shoe trend, rain boots! 🔥🔥.”
Parenting in the Spotlight: The Kelce Family’s Balance of Fame and Family Life
Despite their high-profile careers—Jason’s iconic NFL career and Travis’ massive presence in the NFL and entertainment world—the Kelce family remains grounded in their focus on parenting. Kylie and Jason consistently share family moments that show how they balance their public lives with hands-on parenting. Whether it’s teaching their kids to play golf, navigating the challenges of spelling, or making sure their daughters feel loved and supported, the Kelces keep it real, with a healthy dose of humor.
Kylie’s candid moments on her podcast also offer an intimate look into the ups and downs of raising four children while in the public eye. Her down-to-earth approach to parenting and the love she and Jason share for their kids have made them relatable figures for many fans. The couple’s ability to laugh at themselves—especially when it comes to something as small as a spelling mistake—adds to their charm and likability.

While some may see a simple name mishap as a trivial issue, it highlights the genuine, relatable side of the Kelce family.
