Chiefs heiress Gracie Hunt announces engagement to son of former NFL quarterback

Gracie Hunt, the daughter of Clark Hunt, owner of the Kansas City Chiefs and a billionaire, has joyfully announced her engagement to her partner, Derek Green.

On Saturday evening, Hunt, who is 27 years old, took to Instagram to share the exciting news. Accompanying her announcement were a series of photos capturing the romantic moment the proposal took place in the desert, with family and friends present to witness the occasion.

The picturesque proposal setting included a beautifully decorated stage with white curtains, surrounded by elegant towers of white flowers. A candlelit walkway added to the enchanting atmosphere as the couple celebrated their special moment.

Expressing her happiness on Instagram, Gracie captioned the post with the heartfelt phrase, “It was always you,” and included a meaningful Bible verse from Romans 8:28 to mark their engagement.

The announcement quickly garnered warm messages of congratulations from the Hunt family. Gracie’s sister, Ava, expressed her delight in the comments section, writing, “I am overjoyed.”

Her mother, Tavia Hunt, also shared her excitement, posting, “DREAMS DO COME TRUE!! Congratulations you two!! We love you so much!!!”

The engagement was a family affair, with Chiefs CEO and owner Clark spotted alongside his family as they watched the heartwarming moment from afar.

The couple went public with their relationship back in April 2025.

Both Hunt and Green attended Southern Methodist University, with Green later playing football at Long Island University and for several teams across Europe.

Green is the son of former Chiefs quarterback Trent Green, who led the team for six seasons, marking a literal merger of two NFL families.

In August last year, Hunt revealed how she had become ‘inseparable’ from new boyfriend during the NFL offseason. 

In an interview with People, she explained: ‘Derek and I have known each other our whole lives.

‘We would actually play together as babies during the Chiefs’ Christmas parties every year, and then we reconnected as adults in 2017 and met on the sidelines pregame. We reconnected in early March and have been inseparable ever since.’

The blonde beauty, who has racked up more than 592,000 followers, often flaunts her lavish lifestyle online, which includes glamorous vacations, sideline seats to many football games, VIP treatment at top sporting events and hangout sessions with Taylor Swift.

Aside from being a popular Instagram sensation, Gracie has also launched an impressive pageant career, and was crowned as Miss Kansas USA in 2021.

Most recently, she has stepped into the world of jewelry, teaming up with high-end brand Monica Rich Kosann to launch a limited-edition arrowhead charm necklace.
