VIDEO: Chiefs Heiress Gracie Hunt Makes Her Feelings On Harrison Butker Clear Following Kicker’s Polarizing Comments
Gracie Hunt, the daughter of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, has made her feelings on Harison Butker clear following the kicker’s explosive speech at Benedictine College.
Butker has faced rife backlash for comments made in front of graduating students during a commencement ceremony at the college, where he encouraged women to lean into their vocations as wives, mothers, and homemakers.
“I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolic lies told to you,” he said in a now-viral video posted by the school’s YouTube account.
“Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world, but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world. 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.”
Well, I can only speak from my own experience, which is I’ve had the most incredible mom who had the ability to stay home and be with us as kids growing up. And I understand that there are many women out there who can’t make that decision,” she said. “But for me and my life, I know it was really formative and in shaping me and my siblings into who we are.”
