I didn't think it was possible, but Patrick and Brittany Mahomes may have restored my faith in high school sweethearts. It's been 12 years since they first started dating and they're still going strong as a married couple! They've also recently announced they're expecting baby no. 3 — which is no small feat when their lives are already so full.
Here's everything we know about this stunning football couple that's setting the tone for everyone else.

Patrick and Brittany Mahomes started dating while they attended Whitehouse High School in Whitehouse, TX which makes them high school sweethearts! During an appearance on the TODAY show, Patrick talked about the beginning of their relationship. "I think at that point we had been dating for a couple months," he said before admitting he was "just a normal teenage kid showing up at the family dinner."
The cute teens were still going strong a year later because they went to prom together! Patrick posted a pic on Instagram the day they were set to go and it perfectly captured the early 2010s (i.e. collage instead of carousel pictures). He wrote, "
Best prom date a guy could ask for," in his caption and I think we can agree they both felt that way.

Interestingly enough, Brittany went to college at the University of Texas at Tyler (via University of Texas at Tyler) while Patrick played football at Texas Tech University (via NCAA). It seems they were committed to stay together no matter what!

Later that year, Patrick and Brittany got engaged! PEOPLE managed to grab the cute BTS screenshots of the special moments shared on the couple's individual Instagram stories and I think I've found the perfect ring replacement to send to my fiancé. JK!
The couple surprised everyone with their pregnancy announcement towards the end of September 2020 with Brittany writing, "Mom & Dad, taking a small detour to the wedding❤️," on Instagram. The couple looked cute as Brittany held her sonogram picture and Patrick held her tiny baby bump.
Patrick's pale pink shirt may have been a nod to their baby's gender because their daughter was born a few months later!
Patrick & Brittany's daughter, Sterling Skye Mahomes, was born February 20, 2021. Not only did Brittany share the news of her birth on Instagram, but Patrick also shared the same picture on his page. Though they didn't show baby Sterling's face, they shared she weighed 6 lbs, 11 oz.

The closest baby reveal fans of Patrick & Brittany received is one where the NFL star held her in an adorable pic the month after Sterling was born. He posted it on Instagram to seemingly celebrate her being alive for a full month and it was a sweet gesture.
On Mother's Day in 2021, Brittany expressed her excitement about celebrating the holiday as a new mom. PEOPLE reports she wrote on Instagram, "Dear Sterling, thank you for making me a mommy and being the biggest blessing EVER, Mommy & Daddy love you more than you will ever understand."
Brittany also made sure Patrick was celebrated on Father's Day by sharing the cutest carousel of pictures featuring their family on Instagram. "Happy 1st Fathers Day!!! We love you❤️," she wrote. Fans were able to see Sterling's full face in most of the pictures and it's clear that she felt content in her dad's arms.

Despite their baby detour, Patrick & Brittany got married in March 2022. They got married in Maui, HI and made sure little Sterling had a role as flower girl in their wedding (via PEOPLE). Brittany wasn't shy about posting candid moments from the couple's big day and seemed thrill to have their daughter there! "Having your daughter apart of your wedding, just hits different🥺💕 I love you sister girl💖," she wrote.
The couple celebrated a romantic honeymoon in St. Barts (via PEOPLE) and enjoyed time in nature. Brittany concluded they had "a perfect honeymoon" on her Instagram stories which seems like it was true!

The couple were riding the high of preparing for their second baby because they couldn't wait to reveal the gender to PEOPLE. They both wore the cutest blue hoodies that said, "Baby Mahomes, boy or girl" with 'boy' circled in blue. Even Baby Sterling was all smiles in the first photo.

The couple then celebrated Brittany's 27th birthday which she documented on Instagram. She wore a cute navy blue set that complemented her baby bump while Patrick kept it cool and casual in a Fendi t-shirt, dark blue jeans, and sneakers. "Cheers to 27✨," Brittany wrote.
Shortly after Thanksgiving, Patrick & Brittany gave birth to their son, "Patrick 'Bronze' Lavon Mahomes III" who weighed "7lbs 8oz," according to the athlete's Instagram caption. Similar to Sterling's birth announcement, the couple didn't show little Patrick's face, just his feet in the cutest onesie I've ever seen. A diamond bracelet or necklace with their son's nickname was also placed right under his little body.

This is one couple who isn't afraid of doing business together because Patrick joined Brittany as the co-owner of Kansas City Currents! He shared the following message on Instagram, "I am thankful for the chance to join @brittanylynne as part of the Kansas City Current's ownership team. She and the Longs have done an incredible job building a world-class organization and I am excited to join another championship-caliber club as it continues to make history."
Brittany didn't waste time supporting Patrick heading back to the Super Bowl with the Chiefs again and brought along Sterling. She shared the cutest BTS video of Patrick running over to give them both a kiss before heading back on the field. She wrote, "So. Dang. Proud. OF YOUUUU❤️" as her caption.
PEOPLE got the inside scoop on Patrick's MVP speech and he had nothing but kind words for his wife. "To my wife Brittany, my baby girl Sterling and my son Bronze, this crazy life that we are living means nothing without y'all, keeping me balanced, and making me appreciate every single day. No matter how I feel coming home, y'all bring me joy and make me appreciate the time that I get to spend with y'all. Thank you for always being there for me, through my good times and my bad. Love y'all," he said.

When Patrick and the Chiefs won the Super Bowl in 2023, Brittany made it known she continues to be his biggest supporter. She wasn't shy about heading to Instagram to let the world know just how proud she was of him. PEOPLE reports she screamed, "He did it," without hesitation.
The coupled attend 2023's Met Gala together in classic looks that showed they know how to dress to impress. The only thing that wasn't traditional about Brittany's look were here sky high metallic heels and sequin bardot neckline.

Brittany brought Sterling and Bronze onto the field before Patrick's fourth Super Bowl game and the couple celebrated together after the quarterback led his team to victory. When Patrick accepted the MVP trophy, his third in total, he expressed his gratitude for Brittany and their kids.

Baby No. 3 is officially on the way as the couple have announced their family is getting bigger. Brittany and Patrick look closer than even in this carousel, making me thinking have three kids isn't so bad! "Family of 5 coming soon🥹 blessings on blessings🙏🏻🤍," says Brittany's caption.
The couple stepped out on the red carpet for their 15 and Mahomes Foundation Gala in honor of their charity. They couldn't stop smiling in these pictures from the charity's Instagram story — and I can see why! Aside from the fact they're getting ready to welcome their third child, they genuinely looked excited to be celebrating their charity.
Patrick & Brittany Mahomes had the best family Halloween costumes this year! They shared a super cute photo of them posed with their kids and let's just say the Mahomes zoo was open for business. Patrick took on the role as a zookeeper while Brittany donned a mommy kangaroo costume that featured a joey in her pouch. It was a cute nod to their growing family, but we can't forget about Sterling and Bronze! Sterling wore a pretty pink flamingo costume while Bronze looked precious as a little lion.
There's no way the Mahomes can get any cuter!
Brittany reported for WAG duties at the Chiefs vs. Buccaneers game on Monday, November 4, 2024 — and cheered alongside her BFF Taylor Swift throughout the game! This TikTok shows the two celebrating one of Patrick's touchdown passes, but it appears Brittany quickly realizes and tells Taylor that "Patrick's hurt." Luckily, it seems Pat was fine after all, but it can be scary business being a WAG!
Meanwhile, Brittany posted a video later of their daughter, Sterling, sharing her own football commentary. PEOPLEreported that in an Instagram story, Brittany asks Sterling, "What's so rude?" Sterling then responds, "If they take the ball from daddy and score a touchdown by theirselves, that means they're so rude." Clearly the Chiefs love — and loyalty — runs deep in this family! 😂
Injuries aside and interesting football takes aside (I'm looking at you, Sterling!), Brittany posted to Instagram, celebrating Patrick's big win. As the only team left with an undefeated record in the NFL this year, her caption is incredibly appropriate: "8 & ZERO😎" We love to see these two winning together!

Did you know November is National Native American Heritage Month? Reese Witherspoon does, and she's excited for readers to get to know Nemonte Nenquimo's story with her book club. Indigenous people have long deserved to have their stories and activism championed, so we're excited one of the year's most inspiring memoirs will be in more readers' hands! Here's everything you should know about the latest book club pick!
Reese's Book Club made the exciting announcement almost a week ago — and it was met with plenty excitement from fans! One person wrote, "Yes! This is SUCH. AN. AMAZING. MEMOIR. 👏" while another said, "Incredibly powerful and moving 🥹🤍."
We can't wait to dig into this inspiring read!
Reese Witherspoon is excited about November's pick for several reasons. She said it's "an unforgettable memoir about fighting for your home and your heart" before adding how she was "moved by this story." You know if Reese was moved, it's gonna be a good one — that woman knows how to pick a book!
Unlike most of Reese's Book Club picks, We Will Be Jaguars is Nemonte Nenquimo's memoir. Beginning with her birth in Ecuador's Amazon forest, Nenquimo found herself belonging to the Waorani tribe. From learning how to identify the healing components of nature and telling stories, she was immersed in her tribe's culture until she decided to briefly leave to study with missionaries.
However, Nenquimo answered her ancestors call to remember where she comes from and she began focusing on climate change. She's led the initiative against Big Oil that's harming the Amazon and has gone toe to toe with various groups, even some of those she once studied with.
With her husband Mitch Anderson's help, she hopes We Will Be Jaguars continues debunking horrific myths about indigenous culture by introducing readers to their beautiful history.

Not only is November 5, 2024 election day in the US (see Lauren Graham's awesome Voter selfie!), it's also a pretty special day in the Gilmore Girls universe: it's Luke and Lorelai's wedding anniversary! After almost a decade of will-they-won't-they (despite the fact they were totally in love with each other before then), the couple finally kisses at the end of season 4. But they don't tie the knot until Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life dropped on Netflix in 2016. Here's a look back at a couple of their best relationship moments — and the sly way the Gilmore Girls pilot told us they were endgame.
Warner Bros. TV
Luke and Lorelai share a kiss during the season 4 finale "Raincoats and Recipes," and it's even more special because it happens at the Dragonfly Inn! The episode finds all of Stars Hollow doing a test run before the inn's opening weekend, which Lorelai is trying to balance alongside her newfound single status. After having a very passionate discussion on the porch about their lack of communication (a classic Gilmore Girls issue), and that they want to be in a relationship with each other, Luke and Lorelai finally kiss. It's about time!
And Scott Patterson actually revealed he was super nervous to film that scene purely because of how long we had waited for it. "[I remember] how nervous we both were on that day and how the crew stuck around to check it out because everybody kind of knew it was this iconic moment," Scott Patterson says in an interview with EW. "The nervousness we were having as actors was, 'We don't want to screw this up'...We both realized this is exactly how we should feel. We should take this into the scene and we did and got the results."
Warner Bros. TV
I do think Luke and Lorelai were definitely always into each other — even if they didn't realize it. On a thematic level, it's a huge deal that the Gilmore Girls pilot opens with Lorelai entering Luke's diner, and that their conversation is the first few lines of the show. The first moments of any pilot are some of the most important because they introduce us to the characters, and they need to establish their personalities, as well as what's important to them. Similar to how the 2005 Pride & Prejudice plays the same music while Lizzy is at the Bennett home and Mr. Darcy's Pemberley, GG creators Dan and Amy Sherman-Palladino are showing us that Luke's Diner (and being with Luke) is where Lorelai feels at home. Plus, Luke immediately knows Lor is lying when she says she hasn't had any coffee and to be known is to be loved!!
Warner Bros. TV
We don't see Luke too many more times throughout the episode (he does somberly present them with burgers and fries while they discuss the show's first Friday Night Dinner), but how does the pilot end? At Luke's Diner, once again. And when Luke shows up to take their order in a button down, Lorelai is (uncharacteristically) speechless before they tell each other they look nice like two eighth graders showing up to a dance. I love idiots in love!
Saeed Adyani/Netflix
Yes! Luke and Lorelai get married on November 5, 2016. You can see it in the "Fall" episode of A Year in the Life, streaming on Netflix.
Warner Bros. TV
Yes, Luke really does love Lorelai — he just shows it differently than anyone else. Luke and Lorelai are friends throughout the entirety of Gilmore Girls, and he's the one person she can really count on. He's always willing to get into a debate with Taylor, but at his core, Luke's dependable and steadfast, which totally balances out Lorelai's fiery emotion.
And despite Luke's serious personality, Scott Patterson exclusively told Brit + Co he thinks Luke would get even more serious if his relationship with Lorelai hadn't worked out. "You know, [Sullivan's Crossing character Sully is like] if Luke hadn't ever met Lorelai or their relationship failed miserably and he shut down the diner, couldn't cope anymore, and he escaped to the woods in Canada and opened up a campground," he joked.
