Harrison Butker earns Chiefs heiress Gracie Hunt ‘respect’ over controversial college speech

Published

on

Kansas City Chiefs heiress Gracie Hunt has jumped to the defence of kicker Harrison Butker, telling the NFL star he has her “respect” after coming under fire for comments he made about women.

Butker has been widely criticized for suggesting women are better off being mothers and urged them to become “homemakers” due to the experience he had growing up.

The 28-year-old’s commencement speech at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas City, quickly swept across the internet and went viral after addressing their female graduates – giving them advice which was slammed as being outdated.

When asked by presenter Steve Doocy for her thoughts on Butker’s comments, Gracie – the daughter of Chiefs owner Clark Hunt – fully agreed with the three-time Super Bowl winner’s opinion.

“I can only speak from my own experience, which is I had the most incredible mom who had the ability to stay home and be with us as kids growing up,” Hunt said on Fox & Friends.

“And I understand that there are many women out there who can’t make that decision but for me in my life, I know it was really formative in shaping me and my siblings to be who we are.”

She was then asked if she “understood” what Butker was talking about, to which Hunt replied: “For sure, I really respect Harrison and his Christian faith and what he’s accomplished on and off the field.”
