FOX Sports host Charissa Thompson recently got candid about her past relationships, admitting that she had married the “wrong people.” In an emotionally raw moment on her podcast, Calm Down with Erin and Charissa, the TV personality reflected on her romantic choices and the lessons she’s learned along the way.
“I think sometimes we convince ourselves that we’re making the right choice because we want to believe in love, in the idea of forever,” Charissa shared. “But looking back, I realized I was more in love with the idea of marriage than with the person I was marrying.”
The honest confession sparked a wave of online discussions, but one reaction stood out — Kylie Kelce, wife of Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce, weighed in with a heartfelt yet witty comment on social media. “Sometimes the wrong turns lead to the right places. Proud of you for sharing this,” Kylie wrote, paired with a supportive emoji.
Fans flooded the comment section, praising both women for their vulnerability and openness. Some even shared their own stories of overcoming heartbreak and finding clarity after failed relationships.
Thompson, who has been a prominent figure in sports broadcasting for years, emphasized the importance of self-awareness in relationships. “It’s okay to admit you made a mistake. Growth comes from facing those truths.”
The exchange between Charissa and Kylie has resonated deeply with fans, proving once again that honesty and support can spark powerful conversations online. As Thompson continues to share her journey, many are applauding her courage and finding inspiration in her story.
