People love to speculate about Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes. The fame. The rings. The kids. The spotlight. Lately, the talk has shifted to their age difference and how a teenage relationship survived money, pressure, and three children before either turned 30.Here’s the reality. There is no shocking age gap. No hidden timeline. No power imbalance. Patrick Mahomes was born Sept. 17, 1995. Brittany Mahomes was born Aug. 31, 1995. They are weeks apart. Same year. Same generation. Same high school. The “wild” part of their story is not the age difference. It’s how long they’ve stayed together.
Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes are the same age and grew up side by side
Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes met as teenagers in Whitehouse, Texas. He was a sophomore.
She was a junior. According to Patrick, the relationship did not start instantly.“We kinda met in seventh, eighth grade. She was the grade above me, I was kind of the best friend, in the friend zone forever. I used to walk her to class and was trying to flirt. When I was a sophomore in high school, she was a junior. I actually got her a rose… I had a crush on her. But, I was getting a rose as a joke for Valentine’s Day.”They began dating in March 2012. They attended prom together in 2013.
After graduation, they went to different colleges. Brittany played soccer at the University of Texas at Tyler. Patrick attended Texas Tech. The relationship continued long-distance while both followed athletic careers.
In 2017, both turned pro. Brittany signed with Icelandic club Afturelding/Fram. Patrick became a first-round pick of the Kansas City Chiefs. Their lives changed fast. The relationship did not.After Patrick won Super Bowl LIV on Feb. 2, 2020, he proposed months later.“You don't think it's going to be nerve-wracking, especially when you've been with someone for so long, but before you get on that knee, your heart's racing, I promise you that.” They married March 12, 2022, in Maui, Hawaii. At that point, they had already been together for nearly a decade.
Three kids later, Brittany Mahomes is not ‘just the QB’s wife’
The couple welcomed daughter Sterling Skye Mahomes in February 2021.
Son Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III arrived Nov. 28, 2022. Their third child, Golden Raye, was born Jan. 12, 2025.Brittany Mahomes has remained visible and vocal throughout Patrick’s rise. She is a former professional soccer player and a co-owner of the Kansas City Current. She shows up at playoff games, Super Bowls, and league events. She also draws criticism online. She has addressed it directly.“Lol it's actually really sad how disrespectful some women are...But
they are a waist [sic] of my time & not going to disturb my peace.”Patrick has consistently credited Brittany as a stabilizing force.
“I have a great wife. I think that helps out a ton. She helps me out a ton by taking stuff off my plate. I have great people around me and I can be Patrick Mahomes. I can be myself, the same person I've grown up being, and luckily that's won a couple of Super Bowls.”Ahead of Super Bowl LVIII, Patrick explained how her competitiveness fuels him.“I think having that fire, it bleeds through our entire family and it makes us as a family so close-knit because Brittany's going out there and being the one that's willing to lay it on the line every single day… People think I am, but she is for sure.”Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes do not have a meaningful age difference. They grew up together. They entered adulthood together. They built careers at the same time. The story people keep searching for does not exist. What does exist is a relationship that started in high school and survived fame, money, criticism, and three children before either hit 30. That’s not a viral mystery. That’s longevity.
