Kylie Kelce Spills the Tea on Her Podcast
Kylie Kelce – married to Travis’s older brother, Jason Kelce – hosts a podcast called "Not Gonna Lie." On the August 20, 2026 episode, she chatted with actress Leslie Mann and dropped some adorable family details.
The Nickname Reveal
"Aunt Taylor is a big one, where they get to be around cats. And then we go home, and there are no cats."
That’s right – Taylor Swift’s official family title is "Aunt Taylor."
Meet the Kelce Kids (The Biggest Swifties)
Jason and Kylie Kelce have four daughters who played a huge role at the wedding:
| Name | Role at Wedding |
|---|---|
| Wyatt | Flower Girl |
| Elliotte | Flower Girl |
| Bennett | Flower Girl |
| Finnley | Flower Girl |
Kylie previously told Good Morning America (September 2025):
"The girls are thrilled… They’re so excited they’re getting another aunt. And we could not be more excited for them and what the future holds. We love love, and we love Taylor and Trav."
The "Cat Influence" is Real
Taylor Swift is famously obsessed with cats. She has three famous felines:
- Meredith Grey (named after Grey’s Anatomy)
- Olivia Benson (named after Law & Order: SVU)
- Benjamin Button (named after the movie character)
Fun Fact: Benjamin Button even made a cameo in a politically charged Instagram post during the 2024 election, where Swift called herself a "childless cat lady" – a clapback at comments from JD Vance.
The Kelce Kids Want Cats NOW
Because they hang out with "Aunt Taylor," the Kelce daughters are cat-obsessed:
- Every time they pick a reward, they choose cat-themed stuff
- Kylie is lobbying husband Jason to get a cat by next summer
- Obstacle: Jason is allergic to cats
Kylie’s plea to Jason: "Jason, I need you to lock in here. There is cat need in this house."
Jason Kelce Cried at the Wedding (And He Wasn’t Alone)
On an earlier podcast episode (August 6), Kylie revealed Jason got very emotional at his brother’s wedding.
Why the Tears?
- He cried at his own wedding in 2018 – so this runs in the family
- Watching his four daughters be flower girls was overwhelming
- The whole ceremony was "touching" and "very loving"
Kylie’s tease: "OK, that’s all the information you get. It was emotional, and he was not the only adult crying in our family."
