Matthew Stafford’s wife Kelly reveals real reason NFL star skipped party at Kylie Jenner’s house

MATTHEW STAFFORD once skipped a party at Kylie Jenner’s place – to watch golf on TV.

The LA Rams quarterback, 37, led his team to glory in Super Bowl LVI back in 2021.

Stafford moved to Los Angeles in 2021 after being traded by Detroit Lions, who selected him No1 overall in the 2009 NFL Draft.

And Kelly – who wed the NFL star in 2015 – revealed their new life in Hollywood is a far cry from the sleepier time they enjoyed in Michigan.

To laughter from the hosts, she previously told KFCradio, “The change of pace we had moving from Detroit to LA was pretty good.

“[Our neighbour now] is Kylie Jenner. She’s really kind!”

Kelly explained she’d been invited to party over at the 28-year-old model’s house to celebrate the birthday of Kylie’s daughter Stormie.

But she faced the numerous celebs in attendance without her quarterback husband, who had his eyes firmly trained on the fairways.

She continued, “I was so out of place, but they were all so nice and completely down to Earth.

“So Matthew comes home and he goes ‘how did the party go?’.

“He goes ‘I was going to come by but you know, some golf thing was on’.

“So I was like ‘you could have come, walked your a** across the street and helped me?!’

“But meanwhile he’s at the house watching golf.

“He’s like ‘yeah, it’s Saturday’.”

Stafford’s every-man demeanour was in evidence at the Super Bowl he won.

The quarterback rocked up in just a T-shirt and jeans after Bengals QB Joe Burrow arrived in a grey custom tiger-print suit.

He secured his first Super Bowl ring after an epic battle, tossing a late go-ahead touchdown pass to Cooper Kupp in the 23-20 victory.

Kelly and their four children went wild in the stands as Stafford secured the Rams’ first title since 2000.

Sadly for Stafford, the 2022 season couldn’t deliver similar highs.

The Rams struggled on both sides of the ball as they finished 5-12 on the regular season, their worst campaign since 2016.

Stafford himself was plagued by injuries, throwing for 2,087 yards, 10 touchdowns and 8 interceptions through nine games.

The Rams have finished 10-7 in each of the previous two seasons.

Last year they lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the division round.
