Jason Kelce Reveals His Favorite Part About Being a Parent as He Celebrates Daughter Bennett’s 2nd Birthday

The retired Philadelphia Eagles center celebrated his daughter Bennett turning 2, on Sunday, Feb. 23

Speaking on the latest episode of his New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast, released Wednesday, Feb. 26, the retired Philadelphia Eagles center, 37, spoke about his favorite part of being a father as he marked the second birthday of his daughter, Bennett Llewellyn, whom he shares with wife Kylie Kelce, 32.

Benny, she is so funny right now, and she’s at that age where she responds and can talk, but she doesn’t always know what she’s saying,” Jason said. “And it’s just adorable.”

He added, “It’s fantastic to interact with her on a daily basis. Seeing the learning process and, like, the curiosity of a child all manifesting, that’s probably my favorite part about being a parent is just watching a child figure things out and being there with them while they’re doing that.”

And, like, how amazing something as simple as, like, figuring out how to open up the fridge … there’s gonna be something that just blows her mind that you take advantage of every single day as a grown up,” Jason continued

He said, “And you’re like, ‘Oh my God.’ This just made this little kid’s entire day figuring out how to screw unscrew a water bottle. Right now, that’s all she’s doing the rest of the day, and it’s like the best thing ever.”

In addition to Bennett, Jason and Kylie are also parents to daughters Wyatt Elizabeth, 5, and Elliotte Ray, 3. The couple is expecting a fourth baby girl later this year.
