Kylie Kelce doesn't want to only be defined by her husband Jason's NFL career.

In an interview on the Wednesday, Feb. 12 episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, Kylie, 32 — who married former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason, 37, in 2018 — insisted she's not a fan of the term WAG, which is typically used to describe sports star's wives and girlfriends.

"I don't like it. I don't like it because I think it has a serious negative connotation attached," the Not Gonna Lie podcast host told Alex Cooper.

"I think that it's this suggestion that your spouse's profession swallows you up as well. I have made a serious effort to make sure that ... both Jason and I have made a serious effort to make sure that while he was playing, that it was clear that that was his job," Kylie — who is currently expecting her fourth baby girl with the ESPN broadcaster — said.

Kylie continued, "In the same way that someone would go to work and come home and not necessarily talk about their entire day. You're filing taxes. You're doing spreadsheets. Like, you're not coming home and telling your spouse about, like, the spreadsheet you worked out."

As Cooper insisted a lot of WAGs have their "own independent lives" and are "real humans with real lives and feelings," Kylie responded, "The vast majority, it's so funny to me because it's like, it is that stigma of, you're with them because they make a lot of money or, you want designer bags or you want ... you live in a mansion."

"There have been a number of people who have come to our house and they're like, 'Oh.' I'm like again, not easily offended. I'm like 'Yep, that's what you get,' " Kylie joked.

Meanwhile, Jason and Kylie originally met on Tinder, before they tied the knot in Philadelphia in April 2018 after two years of dating. The couple now share three daughters: Wyatt Elizabeth, 5, Elliotte Ray, 3, and Bennett Llewellyn, 23 months, and have a fourth on the way.

As well as looking after their kids, Kylie recently launched her own podcast, Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce, in December 2024, on which she discusses topics such as parenting, social media, women's representation in sports and more.

"I’m excited to have conversations with fascinating people and create a platform where I can be unapologetically myself while also setting the record straight on the many stories that circulate about my family," Kylie previously said in a press release shared with PEOPLE.
