Rob McElhenney’s wife, Kaitlin Olson, challenged his $62,000 bid for the limited-edition Kylie Kelce autographed replica of the Princess Diana Philadelphia Eagles jacket, but in the end, the couple joined forces making the $100,000 bid that won them the jacket.

The “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” actor revealed the bidding war with his wife on the latest episode of the New Heights podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce, writes Kimberlee Speakman for People Magazine.

The auction for the jacket benefitted the Philadelphia Eagles’ Autism Foundation.

McElhenney said he was surprised someone was immediately countering him every time he bid, even topping his final $62,000 bid.  

“And then I got a text from somebody I know who said, ‘I’ve been the one bidding against you, bozo,” he said.

It was his wife, Olson, a costar on “It’s Always Sunny” and an actress on The Hacks.

Olson then weighed in.

“This is a foundation that is important to both of us. The jacket looks great on your wife,” Olson told Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce. “It’s clearly for women. I want it.”

“Thank you to both of you. This is beyond generous,” Jason told the couple.
