Matthew Stafford’s wife breaks silence on controversial Harrison Butker speech

Kelly Stafford makes thoughts on Harrison Butker’s comments clear

Butker’s speech was a strange tirade about many of his thoughts or opinions, rather than advice for these college graduates who are just entering the real world. The piece that irritated folks the most was that he claimed the women graduating from college had been fed “diabolical lies,” because while some of them may go on to have successful careers, many of them will end up being housewives, which is the role he believes they are best suited for.

Kelly notes in her social media post that she enjoys her role within her family, but acknowledges that everyone may not feel the same way. Some women may be more incentivized than others to make a career for themselves, while others may be fine with being a housewife for their family. But that’s a decision that they should be allowed to make, rather than having it made for them.

For the most part, Butker has been criticized heavily for his speech, but there also has been a faction of fans supporting him, saying his comments were misconstrued. Those fans have been going out and buying tons of Butker jerseys, causing it to become the most popular selling jersey in the entire league over the past few days, which was a pretty big shock.

Kelly Stafford does a good job voicing her stance on the matter, and while she’s not destroying Harrison Butker like many other folks are, she also makes it clear she doesn’t agree with what he’s saying. The football season is still far away, but the hope is that the next time Butker is in the news, it will be for something related to the game he plays, rather than his opinions on matters like this.
