New York: In a deeply emotional episode of her Not Gonna Lie podcast, Kylie Kelce opened up about a miscarriage she suffered before the first pregnancy that resulted in her daughter, Wyatt. She described the pain, the uncertainty, and how the moment felt like it slowed down — parts of her story many may find hard to hear, but are all too real for those who’ve faced similar loss.
The Podcast Moment That Struck a Chord
During the podcast, Kylie — known for speaking candidly — paused and broke down as she walked listeners through that difficult time. She recalled the first positive pregnancy test in August 2018, the excitement of surprising Jason Kelce’s family overseas, and then the heartbreaking moment in her follow-up appointment when the baby’s heartbeat could not be detected.
“I remember it felt like everything went into slow motion,” she said, describing how the nurse first offered hopeful possibilities, but deep down she sensed something was wrong.
Medical staff estimated that the embryo stopped developing between nine and ten weeks — a circumstance commonly known as a missed miscarriage, meaning the body doesn’t recognize the loss immediately.

The Day It All Collided With Joy
To add layers to her grief, Kylie revealed that she discovered the loss on her husband Jason Kelce’s birthday. She admitted she postponed telling him until later in the day, even though she felt the instinct to share the news immediately.
“It was a s—ty day because it was Jason’s birthday,” she said emotionally. “I told my mom I couldn’t tell him because of the day… but I did. And it was hard.”
The juxtaposition of what should have been a celebration and what became a moment of pain left a lasting scar. Even now, despite being a mother to four, she says the hurt lingers.
How It Changed Her View of Future Pregnancies
Kylie admitted that this early loss influenced her behavior and mental state during her later pregnancies. After that first miscarriage:
- She delayed announcing pregnancy in future ones until she was further along (16 to 20 weeks).
- She often found herself “Googling almost every week” about fetal viability, especially in her pregnancy with her youngest, Finn.
- The emotional weight has never fully faded. Kylie said, “This still hurts … it never leaves you.
She also emphasized how every loss is unique — comparing miscarriages is neither fair nor helpful. Whether at 6 or 13 weeks, the pain is real.
Why This Story Matters — Especially Now
October is recognized as Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month, making Kylie’s choice to share this story all the more poignant. By speaking so openly, she’s helping break the stigma around miscarriage and validating the grief many women carry silently.
