This past May, Butker delivered a controversial commencement speech during Benedictine College’s graduation ceremony that caused many to criticize his words on social media.
His address at the May 11 ceremony decried various “diabolical lies told to women” about topics including abortion, in vitro fertilization (IVF) and surrogacy, as well as President Joe Biden, and included a reference to Taylor Swift, whom he described as my “teammate’s girlfriend.”
He also spoke about his wife, saying, “I can tell you that my beautiful wife, Isabelle, would be the first to say her life truly started when she started living her vocation as a wife and as a mother.”
He said that he is “beyond blessed” because Isabelle “would convert to the faith, become my wife, and embrace one of the most important titles of all: Homemaker.”
“Isabelle’s dream of having a career might not have come true, but if you ask her today if she has any regrets on her decision, she would laugh out loud without hesitation, and say, ‘Hey, no.'”
The reception to Butker’s speech has not been positive, with many fans calling for the kicker to be cut from Kansas City’s football team.
Former Kansas City commissioner Justice Horn slammed Butker in a post, writing, “Harrison Butker doesn’t represent Kansas City nor has he ever. Kansas City has always been a place that welcomes, affirms, and embraces our LGBTQ+ community members.”
Fellow Kansas City Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce later weighed in on the controversial speech, saying “I can’t say I agree with the majority of it or just about any of it outside of just him loving his family and his kids. And I don’t think that I should judge him by his views, especially his religious views, of how to go about life, that’s just not who I am,” he added.
His brother Jason Kelce also had a few things to add about Butker’s speech, noting, “There’s always going to be opinions that everybody shares that you’re going to disagree with.”
“And make no mistake about it, a lot of the things he said in his commencement speech are not things that I align myself with. But, he’s giving a commencement speech at a Catholic university, and, shocker, it ended up being a very religious and Catholic speech,” he added.
