I appreciate the people that want to wear this, but I don't see me in any of this. That night, we went to a restaurant. We were over-served and having great food. And I just started, started like, you know, writing out on this paper tablecloth, like a name. And I said, why can't we just have something where it's like staples in your closet? And I'll be honest, I'm not a fashionista by any means.
I'm a thing is like three times too big, whatever. I don't care. But I just was like, you know, the bomber, the zip up like shirts. And then. So finally, somebody listened to us. It was probably like four or five years of banging people's doors down and saying, hey, we've got this idea. Well, unless you don't love it, we're not going to love it.
I'm like, I promise you, if we can do this, it's going to be a fucking hit. Just listen. Please listen. And so finally, Michael Rubin with Fanatics did and gave us our shot, shoved us into the deep end of the NFL. Women like you were amazing to give me a shot and put it on. And We freaked out one day when we saw Kylie wearing it at a game. We were like, holy shit. So that was really cool.
And yeah, just thankfully, you know, it's doing well and we're excited. We've got a Super Bowl collection that's going to be available on Fanatics. It's going to be available in New Orleans when we call the game. We have a special announcement coming up about a collab we're doing with somebody. We're kind of hoping to do a collab with you, by the way, which would be pretty fun.
What would be, if we did a collab with you, what would be the one piece of article that would be the Kylie Kelsey wear collab? What would you like, what do you live in? What do you want to do?
It sucked. And for so long, it was crazy because I would be so quiet about it. And...
know my friends knew and all that but i was so embarrassed and i think so many women are because you just all my friends and especially in a in a hockey wives room i don't know what it's like in football a lot of the girls are young when they have their babies in in hockey the boys get married really early and i was in my 30s and that we were not married and we were not you know pregnant
And all my girlfriends, I helped raise their kids in the hockey wives room. So by the time I came rolling around 45 with a surrogate, wait, where'd y'all go? This is crazy. So yeah, there was a lot of embarrassment. You felt like maybe people in my life didn't understand me. It wasn't the case. My girlfriends were amazing.
But I always say to people, even if your friends have never gone through IVF, surrogacy, adoption, just talk to them because you can't keep all this stuff in. And sometimes it's hard for your partner to relate. My husband's from a small town in Canada. Um, you know, not a lot of people like before we were really vocal about surrogacy and IVF and it not working. We're very vocal about it.
And the first time I was like, I'm going to say something on air. Cause this is crazy. He was like, please don't. And he was kind of like, oh my gosh, the day I went public with how much it sucked and we weren't having success. So many people reached out to us and was like, oh my God, we've gone through this too. So it was kind of like therapy. Yeah.
It was honestly the distraction I needed. I mean, I even had my whole cervical cancer journey during football. I... That was a big reason why we weren't able to get pregnant. That was a huge reason why we had to do surrogacy. But for me, being busy and doing what I love, being on that football field is such a distraction and it's something I need to function.
You take me off, I'm a hot mess express. I got to be busy. Working, staying busy, trying to be the best version of me was what helped me the most.
It was crazy. I found out when I went public with it and I went public with it at super bowl, somebody did a sit down interview with me and they were like, Hey, how was your year? And I was like, Holy shit, listen to this. Let me tell you, it all started at week three.
So, um, I just told her, and then I woke up that Monday morning and it was everywhere about the percentages of women that get diagnosed with it, how you shouldn't die of it because it is something that's curable. If you find it early, you're It was wild. I was getting text messages from powerful men in the NFL saying, thank you for doing this.
My mother, my wife, my aunt, my cousin, they don't go to the doctor and they needed to hear this. So yeah, it was for the greater good to just kind of get it out there. When you work with all men and you're the only female out of 30 guys that travel every week to a game, it's not something you want to talk about with your cervix, you know, Hey, pass the pasta. My cervix just got taken out.
How about that Philly offense? You know? So.
We decided COVID Easter. We're always, because we didn't have kids, we always have a big Easter with my girlfriend who was the wife of our goalie. And she was so great and she had a big family. So she always had us over for Easter and she had all the boys over for Thanksgiving. So we were so used to doing everything with everybody's kids on the team.
And we just were all isolated and none of us were together. And we're like, this sucks. And I'm not going to get pregnant. And I know surrogacy sounds off and weird, but let's just fucking do it. And so we just decided to do it. And it was a crazy emotional experience. wild ride. We ended up, um, you know, losing, uh, there was, there was a big loss, which I don't think we were prepared for.
I think we thought when we went into it, we were like, yeah, it's going to be successful right away. What are you talking about? We'll put two in, we'll get two or we'll get one. We got nothing. And I didn't have a lot to start out with. So that was really, really hard. I didn't deal with that very well. I pretty much kind of lost it for a bit. My husband dealt with grief really well.
I didn't process it the way I was supposed to. taught me a big lesson about that. And then that led us to our angel and that was our surrogates. And she was so incredible. She had done it before. She really guided us through it.
