Patrick Mahomes and wife Brittany Matthews are the golden couple of the NFL.
Together since high school, the pair have celebrated a number of highs throughout their relationship, ranging from a lavish wedding and two children to a Super Bowl title and 10-year, $503 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Here’s what you need to know about Mahomes’ No. 1 fan.
She started dating Mahomes in high school
The Matthews-Mahomes love story began at Whitehouse High School in Texas. Back in 2013, the quarterback shared a collection of prom date snaps from their special night.
“Best prom date a guy could ask for!! #prom2013 #bestfriend #greatnight,” the quarterback posted to Instagram.
Mahomes later attended Texas Tech, while Matthews studied at the University of Texas at Tyler, where she played soccer.
She’s a personal trainer
Not only does Matthews boast a B.S. in Kinesiology, but she’s a certified personal trainer, too.
She regularly posts workout videos on Instagram, sharing tips and tricks about staying fit, even while exercising at home.
“Let’s focus on our health and positivity during this time! Let’s build each other up, let’s help each other out! Let’s get through this together (while apart),” Matthews posted in March 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
She was a soccer player
Matthews played soccer at the University of Texas at Tyler and signed on to play professionally with UMF Afturelding/Fram in Iceland after she graduated. She took home a championship trophy with her team, but ultimately decided to retire from the sport and move back to the US to support Mahomes on his NFL journey.
In December 2020, Matthews joined forces with Angie and Chris Long and founded the Kansas City Current, a professional women’s soccer team. Two years later, Mahomes also signed on as co-owner.
She’s an animal lover
Matthews is a proud dog mom to Silver and Steel Mahomes, a pit bull and cane corso. Much like Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey’s adorable pup, Oliver Sprinkles, the Mahomes canines also have a substantial Instagram following, frequently showcasing their Kansas City game-day gear.
She’s Mahomes’ biggest fan
During the NFL season, Matthews can often be found in the crowd cheering her hubby on. Whether she attends games alone or brings daughter Sterling and son Bronze, she’s always a fixture on the sidelines pre- and post-game.
“So. Dang. Proud. OF YOUUUU,” she wrote after the Chiefs won the 2023 AFC Championship.
She added in another post, “Next stop: Super Bowl LVII.”
