Kylie Kelce, the wife of NFL legend Jason Kelce, has publicly shared her personal decision to steer clear of cosmetic injectables like Botox and dermal fillers. The 33-year-old mother-of-four made the revelation on her podcast, Not Gonna Lie, while discussing actress Kate Winslet's own commitment to ageing naturally.
A Choice for Authentic Expression
Kelce explained that her choice is deeply rooted in motherhood and the desire for authentic communication with her children. She stated she likes her face to retain its full range of movement so her four young daughters can read her expressions clearly. "I have four daughters, and I want them to know that they were made exactly the way they were intended to be made and that they should proceed as such," Kelce elaborated. She pointed out that the lines on her forehead when she raises her eyebrows in interest only serve to amplify her feelings.
The podcaster, who shares daughters Wyatt (6), Elliotte (4), Bennett (2), and eight-month-old Finnley with Jason Kelce, was candid about her own moments of self-reflection. "Not all the time. Because sometimes I'm like, 'Oh, girl, you are not 24,'" she admitted. However, she firmly concluded, "I'm 33 years old, and this is how my face looks... I hope that my daughters and other young women can say confidently that that is how they look."
Echoing a Broader Hollywood Sentiment
Kelce was careful to clarify she does not judge others for their choices, but wants to challenge the idea that cosmetic procedures are a necessary standard. Her comments arrive just days after Oscar-winning actress Kate Winslet gave a powerful interview denouncing the 'devastating' plastic surgery epidemic. In a conversation with The Times, Winslet called the trend "terrifying," expressing concern over the disregard for health and the loss of self-esteem being tied to appearance.
"The Titanic star added that some of the most beautiful women she knows are over 70," and lamented that younger generations seem to have lost sight of what true beauty is. Winslet has a long-held reputation for being anti-surgery, once stating it conflicted with her morals and her concept of natural beauty.
Other Stars Embracing 'Pro-Ageing'
They are not alone in their stance. Veteran actress Jamie Lee Curtis, 67, has also positioned herself as proudly 'pro-aging'. In a 2022 interview, she advised, "Don't mess with your face," acknowledging her own past use of Botox but noting it left her looking like a "plastic figurine."
The conversation, led by public figures like Kylie Kelce and Kate Winslet, highlights a growing counter-movement within and beyond Hollywood. It champions authenticity and questions the pressure to pursue perpetual youth through invasive means, emphasising that natural ageing and self-acceptance are valid, powerful choices.
