Breaking News : The People of Wales are after Jason Kelce Head after Taylor Swift’s boyfriend’s brother said an ‘Abusive Comment About Them’.
Welsh people hit back at Jason Kelce today after he described them as ‘posh, rich, upper class, beautiful white people’ while talking with his brother Travis Kelce.
The brothers were speaking on their podcast New Heights this week about the move by Travis’s NFL team Kansas City Chiefs to sign the former Wales rugby player Louis Rees-Zammit, who has switched sports and joined the Super Bowl winners.
The American football stars both praised Rees-Zammit for his bravery in making the move, with Jason saying: ‘When I think of Welsh, I think British people call it ‘posh’.
‘I think of these rich, upper class, just beautiful white people. He is the running stereotype of what I would think of with a Welsh person. I don’t know if that’s an accurate stereotype but that’s certainly what I think of and he’s helping continue that trend in my mind. I’m excited to see what this guy does.
‘I know it’s gonna be a learning curve, but I hope this guy takes the world by f***ing storm. It will be electric. With a smile like that, this guy, if he works out, he’s going to be the most marketable player of all time.’
Jason – adjusting to his global fame off the back of his brother dating Taylor Swift – later admitted he was ‘very incorrect on this’ and ‘happy to be incredibly wrong’.
And people living in Merthyr Tydfil told MailOnline that the Welsh see themselves as proud, passionate and down to earth – and Jason couldn’t have been more wrong.
