Kylie Kelce Gives Commencement Address at Alma Mater Cabrini University’s Final Graduation Ceremony
Kylie, the wife of Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce, addressed Cabrini’s class of 2024 as the school prepared to close its doors after 67 years in operation
The wife of Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce delivered the commencement address at Cabrini University in Radnor, Pa., on Sunday, May 19, as the school prepares to close after 67 years in operation.
According to local ABC affiliate WPVI, the college announced last June that it would be closing after the 2023-2024 school year. Cabrini will sell its property to nearby Villanova University.
Kylie — who graduated from Cabrini in 2017 with a bachelor’s degree in communications — began her speech to the 3,200-strong class of 2024 with a quip about her increasingly famous family, earning laughs from the crowd after she said the university “couldn’t even get a top five Kelce” as their commencement speaker.
My husband, Jason Kelce, is known for giving some pretty earth-shattering speeches,” she joked, referring to the athlete’s highly-publicized speech from earlier this year in which he announced his retirement from professional football. “He did not help me in writing my words today, so you can go ahead and lower those expectations.”
