Kylie Kelce, wife of legendary NFL player Jason Kelce, recently took to social media to share her grief after the death of their beloved Irish wolfhound, Winnie. Through a touching Instagram post, she showed off a series of photos capturing Winnie’s journey with the family, from the tender moment of Jason Kelce gently patting Winnie’s head to the poignant photos of Kylie in her bridal gown, and looking lovingly at Winnie.
The caption accompanying these heartfelt photos revealed Kylie’s lifelong fascination with Irish Wolfhounds. He recounted how his obsession began in his youth, culminating in a desktop folder titled “God’s gift to earth,” filled with meticulously collected race photos from the internet. This desire, he revealed, ultimately led him to Winnie, who not only met but exceeded his expectations, embodying the essence of what he had always seen in a wolfhound.
Expressing her deep sadness, Kylie expressed the immense loss she felt, saying:
“I lost a part of my soul today, but I know she is at peace. I love you, Winn. You will always be my first born.” This sentiment emphasized the special place Winnie held in his heart and the deep bond they shared.
The outpouring of support from family and friends in the comments section underscores the impact Winnie had on those around her. Jason Kelce’s brother, Travis Kelce, and his ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, both left messages of condolence, acknowledging the wonderful life Winnie lived and the joy she brought to the Kelce household. .
In addition to this personal tribute, the Kelce family also maintains a dedicated Instagram account for their pets, highlighting their commitment to their furry family members. This account, featuring Winnie and their other Irish wolfhound, Baloo, serves as a testament to the Kelce’s deep love for their dogs and the memories they continue to hold.
