She announced last month that she and her husband Jason Kelce were expecting their fourth child.
And Kylie Kelce revealed why she decided to take the plunge with another child after already sharing three young girls with the 37-year-old retired Philadelphia Eagles center.
While chatting on her Not Gonna Lie podcast on Thursday, Kylie responded to fan questions at the top of the episode and gave a possibly joking explanation for why she wanted baby number four, which all came down to a matter of numbers.
The 32-year-old former field hockey player — whose debut podcast episode earlier this month surpassed Joe Rogan’s position as the number-one podcast on Spotify — began by explaining that she had always ‘wanted four [children] with room for one pleasant surprise.’
That was fine with Jason, who she said told her, ‘I’ll do whatever you wanna do.’
But the two seemed to settle into a comfortable place after welcoming their third child, 21-month-old daughter Bennett.

The wife of Jason Kelce, 37, admitted she ‘wanted four [children] with room for one pleasant surprise,’ but she thought three kids was a comfortable stopping place for a while
‘I really think we got to three, and I was like, three is cool. This feels good,’ she said.
But the baby fever started to kick in as soon as her littlest one was old enough to not be such a handful.
‘Then we got out of the rough baby sleeping and all that, and then I was just like, you know what? I really like even numbers,’ Kylie joked.
In addition to Bennet, Kylie and Jason share two other daughters, five-year-old Wyatt and three-year-old Elliotte.
Kylie stopped just short of ruling out the possibility of a ‘surprise’ baby number five in the future, it seemed increasingly unlikely to her.
‘I think it might get shut down after this one,’ she admitted. ‘We’re gonna have this next kid and I’m gonna be like, “Don’t even look at me. Just eyes at the floor. Don’t look at me.”‘
Last month, Kylie and Jason announced they were expecting baby number four with a post on her Instagram page.
She shared a hilarious photo of her three daughters in which big sister looked shocked at the news, while Elliotte displayed a forced smile and little Bennett had tears streaming down her face.

‘I feel like we captured a very accurate representation of how each of the girls feel about getting another sister,’ Kylie joked with her pregnancy announcement post in November. ‘At least Ellie, mom and dad are on the same page!’
She met Jason, the retired center for the Philadelphia Eagles, on a dating app in 2015. They wed in 2018 and welcomed their first daughter the following year

Kylie met her future husband back in 2015 via a dating app, and the rest is history.
The two went on to tie the knot in 2018 in Philadelphia, where Jason played for the Eagles, and they welcomed their first daughter the following year.
Jason, who co-hosts the popular podcast New Heights with his brother, Travis Kelce, admitted days after the announcement that he has it ‘pretty easy’ when it comes to raising his daughters with Kylie.
‘There’s another girl, so the clothes are all going to be hand-me-downs or already bought,’ he told E! News.
‘The crib is already situated. So we’re pretty set. Kylie’s definitely preparing more than I am, because she’s actually growing the human being,’ he continued.
‘I love my kids so much, and especially my daughters,’ he added sweetly. ‘I was telling somebody out there because they’re expecting their first — and they look at you. They smile at you.
‘There’s just a way that kids have to warm your soul in a way that nothing else can,’ Jason gushed. ‘And it’s been such a blessing to have three healthy, smart, wonderful children.
And hopefully we’ll welcome a fourth into this world, and we’ll be able to watch them fight and tear each other apart and all the good stuff,’ he joked.
