Correlation is not causation, but Kansas City Chiefs supporters are already treating Patrick Mahomes’ expanding family as a possible Super Bowl good-luck charm.
Brittany Mahomes is expecting the couple’s fourth child, and fans on X were quick to highlight an intriguing pattern: each of her previous three pregnancies coincided with a Chiefs appearance in the Super Bowl.
Brittany was pregnant with Sterling Skye, Bronze and Golden Raye during Kansas City’s Super Bowl trips in 2021, 2023 and 2025. The Chiefs have reached the championship game five times since the beginning of the 2019 season, meaning the chances of her being pregnant during the NFL’s biggest event were already relatively high.
“I’m going to need them to have around 10 more kids,” one fan joked on X.
Supporters were not the only ones to notice the coincidence. Mahomes himself acknowledged that he is hoping the family’s winning trend continues with another Super Bowl appearance.
“I’m hoping,” Mahomes said. “I don’t know if Brittany is, but I’m hoping we can keep that going and get another Super Bowl win with a baby on the way.”

There is one less encouraging detail for Chiefs fans: Kansas City has won only one of the four Super Bowls played while Brittany was pregnant.
The Chiefs are 6-2 this season despite a long list of injuries among their wide receivers. Andy Reid’s squad is scheduled to visit Atlanta on Sunday to take on the 3-6 Falcons.
The couple shared the pregnancy news Tuesday evening, posting a collection of Instagram photos with the caption: “Another blessing from God… and then there were six.”
Mahomes and Brittany are already parents to five-year-old Sterling Skye, one-year-old Golden Raye and three-year-old Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III.
In the beachside photoshoot, Patrick and the couple’s three children can be seen placing their hands on Brittany’s baby bump. The surprise announcement prompted a wave of congratulations online and came roughly 18 months after Brittany suggested that their family might be complete.
“We’re done, we’re done for a while,” she said in June 2025. “I don’t know… I feel like you can never say you’re done. I think three is all I need.”

The Mahomeses, who are close friends of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, married in 2022 after being together for a decade.
“Being a mom changed so many things in my life and changed how I looked at so many things,” Brittany told Yahoo in June. “It really reshaped and redefined a lot of things in my life.”
She continued: “It’s made me more intentional, more purposeful and, honestly, more motivated to keep going and keep showing my kids that there are no boundaries in front of you.
“You can achieve anything. You can be a part of anything that you want to. You need to dream big and understand that you have to work hard and do the hard things to do the fun things.”
Only minutes before announcing the pregnancy, Patrick and Brittany had both shared posts about the Chiefs acquiring wide receiver Josh Downs before the NFL trade deadline.
The Chiefs quarterback recently returned to action after sustaining damage to his ACL and LCL during a game against the Los Angeles Chargers last December.

The three-time Super Bowl winner underwent surgery before setting himself the target of returning to full fitness before his daughter Golden learned to walk.
Brittany, a former professional soccer player and co-owner of the Kansas City Current, has remained a prominent presence beside her husband throughout his NFL career.
After the Chiefs’ latest defeat to the Denver Broncos, she accused NFL officials of intentionally making unfavorable calls against Kansas City in an angry social media post.
Mahomes and the Chiefs suffered a painful road loss after offensive lineman Jaylon Moore was flagged for a false start, wiping out what would have been a game-winning touchdown pass to Rashee Rice.
The penalty moved Kansas City back to the six-yard line. Mahomes was then sacked on fourth-and-goal, allowing Denver to escape with a dramatic 28-24 victory and handing the Chiefs their second loss of the season.
“You can’t tell me you call that on a game winning [touchdown],” Brittany wrote to her 2.1 million followers. “Oh wait yeah I can cause it’s us. That was the weakest call I have ever seen, you can’t tell me otherwise.”
