Patrick Mahomes’ wife Brittany might as well be as famous as the Kansas City Chiefs star. Always candid and heartfelt with fans, Brittany has been known to share personal moments on social media, whether good or bad. A few years ago, Brittany shared details about her stepfather’s death.
Her stepdad, Paul Matthews, collapsed while waiting to enter Arrowhead Stadium for a Chiefs game in Unfortunately, he was unable to recover and passed away. Brittany’s Instagram post was an emotional tribute, trying to take a slightly positive attitude toward the loss.
However, post is no longer available on her Instagram. That day, Patrick Mahomes missed the team’s postgame conference due to a medical emergency. He later revealed that he was told about the incident by Chiefs coach Andy Reid “in the tunnel after the game.” Paul, who was reportedly entering the stadium alongside Mahomes’ father, was taken to a nearby hospital but couldn’t survive.
Brittany wrote about her loss in the caption of the post:
“Today is a day I will never forget! Directly after this picture I sprinted to the front entrance to see my stepdad passed out! He did not come back from this and he was called to heaven today! I KNOW 100 percent he is so happy up there with his kids looking down on us cheering loud that his chiefs won today!”
She added:
“Thank you everyone for the prayers and sweet text! We will miss you Paul So So So Much! I will take care of mom for you!”
