Who Is Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes Dating? Meet Girlfriend Brittany Matthews
The Super Bowl shines a big spotlight on the quarterbacks, and that means people want to know more about Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes. The 24-year-old doesn’t have a wife, but he is clearly off the market. He is pretty serious with girlfriend Brittany Matthews, who he has been dating for over seven years.
The two were high school sweethearts, meeting at Whitehouse High School in East Texas. They started dating in 10th grade, and they both remained in Texas for college. While Mahomes went to Texas Tech in Lubbock, Matthews attended the University of Texas at Tyler. Despite being over 400 miles away from each other, they maintained a long-distance relationship until they could reunite.
Matthews played soccer at UT and went on to play for a professional Icelandic soccer team, UMF Afturelding/Fram. Since retiring from the sport, Matthews is now a trainer. In addition to her athletic background, she is also a Certified Personal Trainer with a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology.
Brittany Lynne Fitness offers several online workout programs customers can try at home for prices ranging from $30-$75. She also sells branded merchandise.
Mahomes told Yahoo Sports that his girlfriend's fitness background helps keep him in shape. “Eating-wise, I’m blessed that my girlfriend is [big on] nutrition so she helps me out with that — she’s [about] fitness,” Mahomes said in July 2019. “I just try to eliminate some of the bad meals, the fast food, the foods that aren’t great for your body and don’t help you get the most out of it. I’m a picky eater, but I still try to eat healthy stuff like chicken, salmon and all the [other] stuff I like a lot.”
Matthews has lived in Kansas City with Mahomes since late 2017, and they share two dogs, Steel and Silver. They even have an Instagram account for the pups.
The couple revealed to Bleacher Report (seen in the video below) that they even bought their first home in Kansas City. Mahomes admitted that he was happy to let his girlfriend and an interior designer take care of most of it—as long as he got his shoe room. The three-bedroom, three-bathroom home cost $1.925 million, according to Kansas City Business Journal.
Though they are living together, Mahomes hasn't gotten engaged yet. Matthews wrote on Instagram that they aren't anxious to have a wedding. "To everyone that’s gonna ask when we are getting married, the answer is whenever we want," she wrote with laughing emojis.
The trainer is often seen on the sidelines cheering for the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback alongside his brother, Jackson Mahomes.
Unfortunately, Matthews experienced a tragedy while waiting for her beau to step on the field in November 2018. Her stepfather was also in attendance, and he passed out during the pre-game festivities. He later died, and Mahomes wasn’t told until after the game. He skipped media interviews to go be by his girlfriend’s side.
Matthews is in Miami for Super Bowl LIV. The trainer has posted several pictures from the warm weather already, posing in front of a Super Bowl sign, hanging out with Jackson, and even modeling for an Instagram ad. She’ll surely be watching Mahomes play at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
