Patrick Mahomes Praises His “Great Wife” Brittany: “She Helps Me Out a Ton”

Little did Patrick Mahomes know that when he was calling plays from the football field at Whitehouse High School in Texas, the same woman rooting for him from the stands would still be cheering his name on the sidelines years later. The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, have such a beautiful love story dating all the way back to high school – from prom dates to becoming parents and a married couple – and Patrick is deeply thankful for it.

“I have a great wife. I think that helps out a ton,” he told People on July 11. “She helps me out a ton by taking stuff off my plate.”

In September 2020, Patrick proposed to Brittany following his Super Bowl ring ceremony, and later that month, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child together. Not too long later, the duo surprised their closest friends and family members with an adorable gender reveal involving pink paint and their two dogs, Steel and Silver. In February 2021, they welcomed their daughter, Sterling Skye Mahomes, and a year later, they tied the knot in Hawaii.

Then in May 2022, Brittany and Patrick announced they were expecting a second child, captioning an Instagram post, “Round 2 ! ?.” The photo featured their then-1-year-old daughter, Sterling, holding up a sign that read, “Big sister duties coming soon.” Six months later, on Nov. 28, 2022, the couple welcomed baby No. 2 into the world. They, again, shared the news on Instagram, writing, “Patrick ‘Bronze’ Lavon Mahomes III ??11/28/22 7lbs 8oz ?,” under a snap of their baby boy.

Not only do Patrick and Brittany inspire each other on a daily basis, but they also inspire us with their couple workouts and unwavering love for one another. Ahead, check out cute photos of the pair and see why they’ll always be each other’s number-one fans.
