In a startling revelation on her recent podcast episode, famous mother of four, Kylie Kelce, shared the unsettling discovery of a mouse infestation in her home. The episode of “Not Gonna Lie” released on Thursday, June 11, featured her recounting a particularly distressing experience triggered by her dishwasher malfunctioning.
Kylie, 34, expressed her devotion to kitchen cleanliness, especially regarding dishwashing. “I am very particular about the kitchen and food preparation,” she said, explaining her love for sanitising her dishware. The Philadelphia native reflected on how much she enjoys using her dishwasher’s ‘sanitize’ setting, as it gives her peace of mind knowing her family’s dishes are thoroughly cleaned.
However, last week, she received an error message from the appliance, prompting a call to a repair service. Unfortunately, the situation was worse than she had anticipated. The repair technician, upon inspection, uncovered a shocking scene when he flipped the dishwasher over. Rather than just needing a routine repair, a significant amount of dog food stashed by the mice was found inside the appliance. “To make room for their storage of dog food, they decided to chew every wire they could find,” explained Kylie while detailing her discovery.
The mother of four voiced her concern about the potential health risks the mouse infestation posed, particularly her fear of hantavirus—a group of viruses transmitted by rodents that can lead to serious illness in humans. Recently, hantavirus cases made headlines following several deaths on the MV Hondius cruise ship, raising alarm among the public about rodent-borne diseases. “I don’t want hantavirus… from mouse feces in my kitchen,” she reiterated as she described her frantic cleaning efforts.
Kylie displayed a strong aversion to mice, expressing, “I hate mice,” while describing them in vivid detail. Although she acknowledged that her feelings might differ from those of individuals who share their homes with rodents, she made it clear that her problems were not rooted in cleanliness but rather in her discomfort with the creatures themselves.
The podcast revealed not only her feelings of fear but also highlighted a growing frustration with the ongoing rodent invasion. Kylie is now considering the introduction of a cat to her household to help combat future infestations. Despite her husband Jason Kelce’s expressed disagreements regarding a feline companion, Kylie admits desperate times may warrant a shift in plans. “It might end up in a situation where there is a feline resident,” she remarked on the podcast, contemplating the idea of acquiring a cat for pest control.
Kylie and Jason, NFL star and father of their children, are parents to daughters Wyatt, 6, Elliotte, 5, and Bennett, 3, along with their youngest, Finn, who is only 1 year old. The family also shares their home with two dogs, a gentle Irish wolfhound named Patty and a spirited German shepherd called Freddy.
This unexpected turn-of-events, including the mouse issue, put a significant damper on Kylie’s usually meticulous approach to maintaining her household. “I still am crashing out. It was bad. It was bad. Oh, it was so bad,” she lamented, highlighting the emotional strain the infestation has created for her.
As many can relate to the struggles of maintaining a clean and happy home while managing a busy family life, Kylie’s candid sharing may resonate widely, prompting discussions about the challenges of household pests and the drastic measures that parents might consider.
The ordeal serves as a reminder of how even the most diligent homeowners can face unexpected challenges, no matter how clean or organised they may strive to be. As Kylie navigates her current predicament, listeners can tune into her upcoming podcasts for updates on her cleaning saga, as well as for any revelations about introducing a new furry friend into the Kelce household.
