“(Jason) was so cute. He was sitting with his wife having dinner, they were both dressed up. He was wearing a little beret. He was so sweet,” she said. “And I felt so bad, I felt like I was watching an animal at the zoo. He was inside, like in the restaurant…”

She went on to explain that she had a sign on her phone and had shared that she was an Olympian from the Philadelphia area and wanted to meet Jason, before joking that she “passed out” during the ensuing conversation.

“Jason Kelce’s impact is still being felt by our region’s athletes at the Games…” reads the video’s caption.

Kylie’s support for Kaufhold comes after the 20-year-old won her first bronze medal alongside veteran Brady Ellison in the mixed team archery event at the Olympics on Friday, August 2.

Kaufhold’s win marks the first time an American woman has medaled in archery at the Olympics since the team won gold in 1988, according to Essentially Sports.

Kylie and her husband Jason attended the opening days of the Olympics in Paris together. During their trip, the couple attended Team USA’s women’s field hockey game at the games in support of Team USA on July 27.

Although the U.S. team lost 4-1 to Argentina, Kylie spoke to the Associated Press after the match about her joy at being at the Olympics.

“I would say I always wanted to come and watch the Olympics,” she told the AP after the July 27 game. “When they qualified to come to Paris, I thought it made sense. And then when I sat down with Ashley and Kelee, I realized it was a no-brainer. … From start to finish, it just made sense. We’re just happy to be here.”

In photos shared by the New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce On July 29, on an X (formerly Twitter) account, Kylie and Jason were also spotted getting in on the sporting action when they were photographed playing on a field hockey pitch in the French capital.

“Coach Ky was spotted in Paris working with a new field hockey prospect,” the podcast post titled the story.

Kylie previously played college field hockey at Cabrini University and the mother of three continues to bring attention to the sport through youth camps and promotional opportunities.
