ANew Jersey woman has apologized for a heated argument with Kylie Kelce, the wife of former NFL star Jason Kelce, after being denied a photo with the couple over Memorial Day Weekend.
The confrontation occurred while the Kelce‘s were on a quiet date, waiting in their car for a parking spot at Steve & Cookie’s Restaurant and Oyster Bar in Margate City, NJ.
Jason and Kylie Kelce got harassed and threatened by a fan for not taking a picture with her
According to PhillyChitChat, the woman, identified as Goldberg, approached the couple’s truck and knocked on the window to ask for a photo with the retired Philadelphia Eagles center.
After the Kelce‘s declined the request, Goldberg became upset and began shouting at the couple.
The situation escalated until a man in a blue shirt intervened, positioning himself between the irate fan and Kylie Kelce, while Jason Kelce stood nearby.
Goldberg apologizes
In a statement released Thursday, Goldberg apologized for the incident, acknowledging that her behavior was inappropriate and that the situation became unnecessarily heated.
“In a heated moment, I said things that were out of character for me and that I regret and for that, I am sorry,” said the woman.
“My anger, and my actions, are not who I am, and certainly not indicative of the welcoming community of Margate. As an adult and proud member of my community, I should have recognized and respected their right to privacy from the onset.
“I am deeply appreciative of the grace and understanding shown to me by the Kelces and wish them nothing but the best.”
