Kelly Stafford, the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, revealed the reason why her popular podcast has disappeared.
Kelly, who previously hosted ‘The Morning After’ podcast, said that the reaction to each episode filled her with anxiety.
In a post to her Instagram story, Kelly said that recording each episode would leave her dreading how her words would be interpreted and twisted when the show was released.
‘What I don’t miss is the anxiety I used to get the night before every episode was released wondering what headline was going to be created from the episode,’ Kelly said.
‘It just felt like my name was in the headlines every week and that is not what I wanted this podcast for. So that is a big reason why I took a break. I needed a mental break.’
But later in the video, Kelly hinted that the podcast may not be returning at all.

Stafford used to host ‘The Morning After’ with friend Hank Winchester, but says the anxiety of articles or social media twisting her words led to her taking a break from recording the show
Now, Kelly admits that the show just may not come back at all – despite her missing it
‘It was really nice just being there and supporting and being with my kids and Matthew all last season and not having to worry about it,’ she said.
Despite this admission, she did share that she missed the microphone.
‘I really do miss it,’ she said. ‘I think you can do a lot of good with a podcast if you do it right.
‘So I’m trying to figure out what that looks like and still be super enjoyable for you all. So stay tuned on that. I’m working on it.
‘And once there is a decision that I’ve made, I promise you, you’ll know.’
Episodes of the show saw Kelly and her co-host and friend Hank Winchester cover multiple topics both in and out of football.
Subjects included her gameday experiences as a wife as well as what it means to live with a star NFL quarterback.
But she also would delve into her past and her personal life as well. The show also featured multiple guests – including the Rams star himself.
