Football Wives

Travis Hunter's new hairdo may have surprised fans on Sunday, but his wife, Leanna, was turning heads, too -- thanks to her sexy gameday outfit and custom Jaguars boots for her husband's NFL debut.

The star rookie caused quite the stir when he took the field for his first official game ... sporting a buzzed haircut as the Jags faced the Carolina Panthers at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville, Fla.

Leanna was front and center to see Hunter’s milestone moment ... and she made sure her outfit matched the occasion.

Kansas City Chiefs football is officially back ... but the team will be missing its most popular fixture for the 2025 season kickoff in Brazil -- Taylor Swift.

TMZ has confirmed the superstar will be notably absent tonight when her fiancé's team takes on the Los Angeles Chargers at Neo Química Arena in São Paulo.

Sources tell TMZ ... it's not a shocker Taylor skipped the international game ... since none of the WAGs made the trip. It's just a 2-day jaunt leaving no time for the fams to intermingle. Plus, it's safe to assume security for Taylor played a role in the decision-making.

Derrick Henry's had a pretty high-profile career on the gridiron throughout his time in the NFL ... and he's been supported by his longtime girlfriend, Adrianna Rivas, the whole time!

The professional football player and his partner have been together since he started in the big leagues, and she's one of his biggest fans.

Here's a look at how the athlete and his girlfriend have stuck it out together for nearly a decade, and how they started a family along the way.

Adrianna was born in Texas and raised in the city of Odessa. She stayed in her home state for college and earned a bachelor's degree in public relations from the University of Texas, Austin, in 2016.

Her relationship with Derrick kicked off in 2016, going Instagram official the following year, when she shared a now-deleted post featuring the NFL star.

Adrianna shared plenty of posts featuring the NFL star on her account and Story while she was active on the platform.

Adrianna revealed on Instagram she was planning on starting a family with Derrick in January 2020, when she announced her first pregnancy. She went on to give birth to their eldest daughter, Valentina, four months later.

Adrianna and Derrick expanded their family nearly four years later, when she gave birth to a second baby girl named Celine.

The NFL star made an announcement about his second child's birth on his Instagram account, and described himself as "the only MAN that big sister & her will EVER need" in the caption.

Derrick's been pretty open about how Adrianna's support has positively affected him during his time in the league.

He spoke about his career in a 2024 interview with The Athletic and declared his girlfriend and their first daughter -- Celine hadn't arrived yet when he sat down for the conversation -- gave him "all the motivation I need in this world."

Oh, and it's worth mentioning Adrianna's also made friends with other WAGs -- "wives and girlfriends," in case you didn't know -- over the course of Derrick's time in the NFL.

Sean McVay's helped lead the Los Angeles Rams to plenty of touchdowns as the team's head coach ... and it looks like he really scored in his personal life, too, because he got married to and started a family with his wife, Veronika Khomyn, all within a few years!

The professional football figure and his partner were together for several years before they made things official ... although it didn't take long for them to become parents to a baby boy!

We're gonna examine the wife's professional background as a model, and see just how her love story with the coach played out.

Veronika's known for her modeling work after graduating with a bachelor's degree from George Mason University in Virginia.

The coach's wife, who's originally from Ukraine, later obtained her master's degree in global management from Arizona State University.

In addition to her modeling career, Veronika works as a real estate agent, and she obtained her real estate license in 2021, according to her LinkedIn.

She started working with the Beverly Hills-based real estate firm The Agency in 2024, and she mainly focuses on properties in the Westside and San Fernando Valley regions of Los Angeles.

So, remember how we said Veronika attended George Mason University? Well, it turns out she actually met her now-husband when she was a student there and he was working as a coach for the Washington Commanders in D.C.

The pair started dating in the early 2010s, and she followed him to Los Angeles in 2017 when he became the Rams head coach.

Veronika and Sean dated for two more years before he popped the big question, and she shared the news about her engagement on Instagram, according to People.

She showed off her engagement ring and added a short message that she couldn't "wait to call him my husband."

Veronika had to hold on for a few years, but she eventually tied the knot with the coach in Beverly Hills, California, in 2022.

The ceremony ended up having one extra guest when former Rams player Odell Beckham Jr. crashed the wedding ... although Sean said he "loved" the gesture on an episode of the "I Am Athlete" podcast.

Sean and Veronika didn't wait too long to start a family ... she gave birth to a son named Jordan John McVay in October 2023.

Jared Goff's won over lots of fans over the course of his time in the NFL ... and we think his biggest fan of all is his wife, Christen!

The professional football player's been with his spouse since 2019, when they first met online, and they've gone on to start a family together.

Here's a look at Christen's background and how she eventually ended up with the athlete.

Christen Harper Goff was raised in Valencia, California, and she attended California State University, Northridge ... her brother Shane's a professional ice hockey player who's been on several teams over the length of his career.

Christen began modeling at the age of 20, which she started doing to help pay for her college tuition, according to Sports Illustrated.

She went on to appear in Swimsuit Issue five consecutive times ... and she was named 2022 Co-Rookie of the Year.

Christen's also appeared in a handful of shows and films.

Christen and Jared's relationship began after they met on a dating app in 2019, and she later told Sports Illustrated she'd just left a long-term relationship when she met the athlete.

The model claimed she "was trying to stay single for a year" after the end of her past romance, although she was eventually won over by the professional football player.

The pair started dating shortly after their online match, and they made their red carpet debut at the 2019 ESPY Awards ceremony.

Jared waited for three years before proposing to Christen on a trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, which the model described as "the best weekend ever."

Christen and Jared were engaged for two years before made things official at an intimate wedding ceremony in Ojai, California, in June 2024.

The pair revealed they were starting a family the following February, when they told People Christen was pregnant.

She told the outlet she'd decided to "soak up every second" of her pregnancy, while Jared said he was "looking forward" to becoming a father.

While much of Matthew Stafford's career's taken place on the gridiron, he's got a full life off the field -- and he's spent a lot of it with his wife Kelly!

The spouse of the Los Angeles Rams' quarterback has established herself as a podcasting host and media personality over the past few years, and she's garnered a bit of attention for the comments she's made on her program.

We're going to check out how the podcaster ended up starting a family with the professional football player ... and how she ended up in hot water after making comments about his teammates.

Kelly -- whose brother is former NFL player Chad Hall -- attended the University of Georgia, where she was a member of the cheerleading squad. She met Matthew while they were attending the school, where he played quarterback.

Oh, and get this ... Kelly actually dated one of her now-husband's teammates when they were on a break, and she told KFC Radio the move was meant to "piss him off."

She claimed the brief relationship "had a little effect on Matthew," and she eventually got back together with Matthew.

Kelly entered the medical field after graduating from the University of Georgia, and she became a registered nurse in 2014.

She eventually moved into the podcasting space, starting her own podcast, "The Morning After," in 2021. Kelly got caught up in a minor brouhaha in 2023, when she claimed her husband wasn't able to "connect" with the rookies on his team on an episode.

She ended up regretting her comments, and telling WDIV-TV in Detroit she'd "put my foot in my mouth pretty good" ... hey, everyone makes mistakes!

Matthew and Kelly dated for several years before he proposed to her in March 2013. The two were engaged for more than a year before they made things official and got married in April 2014.

Marcus Freeman's supported lots of players over the course of his coaching career ... and he's been getting plenty of support from his wife Joanna at the same time!

The head coach of the University of Notre Dame's football team and his spouse have been together since their college years, and she's seen him bounce from squad to squad before ending up with the Fighting Irish.

We're going to take a look into the personal life of the coach's wife and see how she's been in his corner for more than a decade.

Joanna's originally from Massillon, Ohio, and she grew up in a family that idolized the Cleveland Browns, according to Yahoo! Sports.

The coach's wife decided to stay local for college, attending Otterbein University in nearby Westerville.

She later became a reporter for WBNS-TV in Columbus, Ohio, covering news and traffic, according to her X account.

Joanna switched to focus on her family when her husband was offered a coaching gig at Ohio's Kent State University.

Joanna and Marcus first met when he was playing football at Ohio State University, and they lived in the same housing complex at the time.

The coach's wife told Yahoo! Sports she didn't exactly have "a super romantic love story" with her now-husband, and admitted they "had a lot of breakups and make-ups" along the way.

The two eventually decided to make things official, and the Freemans held a wedding ceremony in February 2010.

Joanna and Marcus went on to start a family with the birth of their eldest child, Vinny, and they have five other children ... Siena, Gino, Nico, Capri, and Rocco.

Marcus has been pretty open about the support Joanna's provided for him throughout his career, and how she's kept him grounded.

The coach told Yahoo! Sports his wife was "going to be ready to fire back" if he ever acted like "a jerk" ... hey, honesty is the best policy!

Although his coaching career hasn't always been easy for their family to manage, Joanna says, she's been pleased to see the "positive impact" he's made on the lives of his players.

Steve Sarkisian has been a popular leader as the head coach of the University of Texas, Austin football team, and we're thinking one of his biggest fans has to be his wife, Loreal.

The collegiate sports figure and the personal stylist have been together for several years, and they've started a family over the course of their marriage -- which almost fell apart.

Here's a look at how the coach's wife established herself professionally ... and how she weathered a potential divorce.

Loreal's originally from Tallahassee, Florida, and she's been involved in the sports world for much of her life, as she played softball and ran track when she was a kid, according to WFAA.

Her athletic career continued into her college years, when she was on the North Carolina A&T State University track and field team.

Loreal's involvement in sports translated into professional opportunities, as her hard work in athletics "allowed me to pick up assistant jobs and internships" in the field.

She eventually ended up landing a position as an assistant track and field coach at the University of Southern California. Steve also happened to be coaching football there at the time.

Loreal has made a name for herself as a personal stylist, and her looks at Texas game days have brought her plenty of attention.

She spoke about her professional life with WFAA and said she wants her clients to "look good but also feel good" about themselves.

She's grown her personal brand through her Instagram account, where she often shows off her curated gameday 'fits.

Loreal has acknowledged a good chunk of the public would "probably only see me as a fashionista and in the fashion industry," especially with the frequency of her posts.

Loreal and Steve made things official when they tied the knot in 2020.

Loreal is stepmother to Steve's daughters Taylor and Ashley and his son Brady, who he shares with his first wife, Stephanie.

Loreal and Steve started a family of their own when she gave birth to their son Amays in April 2025.

She made an announcement about her child's birth on Instagram, and wrote her heart was "so full of love and gratitude."

Things haven't always been exactly perfect in the Sarkisians' marriage ... it appeared to be ending in 2024 when Loreal announced they were planning to divorce.

She posted the split on Instagram, and wrote they'd "amicably" decided to end their marriage, according to Sports Illustrated.

The pair said they planned "to remain the best of friends" and to "support each other personally" following their split.

Kylie Kelce's way more than just one of the WAGs -- wives and girlfriends, in case you didn't know -- as she's accomplished plenty on her own over the course of her relationship with her husband Jason Kelce.

The former athlete's wife has gone from matching with the NFL star on a dating app to starting a family and establishing a smash-hit podcast -- all within a decade.

We're going to check out how she made a name for herself through her media career ... and see how she ended up being associated with Taylor Swift.

Kylie was raised in Narberth, a suburb of Pennsylvania, and she attended nearby Cabrini College, from which she graduated with a degree in communications in 2017.

And Jason's not the only one with a history in athletics in his family, because his wife played field hockey for four seasons while attending college.

Her career with the sport didn't end after she left Cabrini, either, as she went on to become a field hockey coach for her former high school.

Kylie spoke about working with high school-level athletes in an interview with People and expressed she was happy to be able to lead "a wide range of athletes" through her coaching position.

Kylie eventually began a career as a podcaster, and she launched her own podcast, "Not Gonna Lie," in December 2024.

The podcast proved to be a hit with listeners, and it shot to the number one spot on both Spotify and Apple Music following its debut.

She's also established herself as a philanthropist, and she's helped organize an annual event for the Eagles Autism Foundation since 2022.

The podcaster and her husband helped raise over $1 million for the foundation at an event in New Jersey in June 2025, according to the Eagles' official website.

Kylie and Jason's love story's a pretty modern one -- they met through Tinder, and they made their relationship Instagram official in 2015.

The pair dated for two years before the former NFL star popped the big question, and they tied the knot in Philadelphia in April 2018.

Kylie and Jason started their family the following October, when the podcaster gave birth to a baby girl named Wyatt.

The philanthropist's family only grew from there, as she subsequently welcomed another three daughters named Elliotte, Bennett, and Finnley.

Just in case you've been in hibernation for a few years ... Kylie's brother-in-law is Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, who's been dating Taylor ever since 2023.

Swift showed some love to Kylie after the philanthropist gave birth to Finnley, as she liked an Instagram post commemorating the baby girl's arrival.

Jalen Hurts has racked up his fair share of achievements during his time with the Philadelphia Eagles ... and we think he's ranking marrying his longtime partner Bry Burrows pretty high on that list!

The thing is, the quarterback and his spouse had actually met well before he started his NFL career ... all the way back in college, to be exact.

We're going to check out what the pro football player's wife has accomplished in her own life and see how she ended up married to the athlete.

Bry holds multiple degrees, and she double majored in Spanish and political science at the University of Alabama, from which she initially graduated in 2017.

She ended up sticking around Tuscaloosa, and later earned her MBA from Alabama's Manderson School of Business.

Her hard work at school ended up paying off, too, because she started working for tech giant IBM before she'd even finished her master's degree.

Bry filled multiple roles at the company, and she eventually began dealing with IBM's artificial intelligence-focused ventures.

Burrows' time at the University of Alabama was a game changer for another reason -- it's where she actually met Jalen for the first time!

And it's worth mentioning the NFL superstar spent three seasons with the Crimson Tide before transferring to the University of Oklahoma for his senior year.

The pair remained close for years before Bry was spotted at one of her now-husband's games in 2023, and at the time, he told Essence he knew his partner was the one for him "a long time ago."

While the athlete admitted they weren't married yet, he referred to himself as "spoken for" when speaking about his relationship.

Hurts eventually decided to take his relationship with Burrows to the next level, and he proposed to her in September 2024.

And if you weren't convinced about their romance by now ... he referred to her as his "rock" at a press conference just before the 2025 Super Bowl, according to Essence.

Bry and Jalen held a private wedding ceremony later in the year, and then tied the knot for the second time with a big multi-day June event in Napa Valley.

Olivia Culpo's done plenty to make a name for herself -- like being named Miss Universe in 2012 -- and then, on top of that, she married Christian McCaffrey, one of the NFL's biggest stars!

The model and the NFL baller have been together since 2019, and they've gone from being spotted together on vacation to sharing updates about their family life with their fans.

We're going to take a look into the background of the beauty queen and see how she ended up married to the San Francisco 49ers standout.

Olivia's originally from Rhode Island, and she began competing in beauty pageants at a young age, as she won the Miss Rhode Island competition in 2012.

The model's pageant career continued after her first win, and she was named Miss USA shortly after her win in her home state.

Olivia represented the United States at the Miss Universe competition in 2012, and she went three for three, taking home the top prize at the event.

She's remained associated with the Miss Universe competition in the years since her victory, and she served as one of the event's cohosts from 2022 to 2024.

Olivia's worked as a model in the years since her crowning as Miss Universe 2012, and she was featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue from 2018 to 2020.

She's also embarked on a career as an actress, and she made her debut in the 2014 film "The Other Woman."

The model went on to appear in films like "I Feel Pretty" and "Reprisal," and she appeared in several episodes of the musical drama series "Paradise City."

Olivia's made moves into reality programming, and she signed on to host the Netflix cooking series "Next Gen Chef" in August 2025.

Olivia was first linked to Christian in 2019, and dating rumors about the two really began to swirl after they were spotted holding hands on vacation in Mexico.

The model was formerly in a relationship with Nick Jonas, and she was later connected to another NFL star, Danny Amendola, and Zedd.

She eventually moved on with Christian, and they made their relationship Instagram official in November 2019.

The pair have been pretty open about their romance since they were first linked, and she's become a fixture at the running back's games over the past few years.

Olivia and Christian took things between them to the next level in April 2023, when the running back proposed to his now-wife.

The model and the athlete said their vows the following year during a wedding ceremony held  at a church in Rhode Island.

Olivia revealed she was planning on starting a family in March 2025, when she shared an Instagram post to show off her baby bump.

Trevor Lawrence has earned himself some longtime supporters over the course of his time in the NFL ... although we're thinking his wife Marissa's been there longer than all the rest!

Get this ... the athlete and his spouse have actually been together ever since grade school -- yeah, you read that right -- and she's stuck around to see him move from college football to the Jacksonville Jaguars' star quarterback.

We're going to take a look into the background of the pro football player's wife, and see how they stuck it out together over the course of several years before starting a family.

So Marissa and Trevor go way, way, back, as they first met each other in fifth grade, according to Us Weekly.

The quarterback took his time in starting a relationship with his now-wife, though, and recalled they only started "dating seriously in 10th grade."

The couple later attended the same high school in their hometown of Cartersville, Georgia, and they even went to prom with each other.

Marissa and Trevor ended up going to separate colleges -- she went to Anderson University, he headed off to Clemson -- but they managed to stay together despite being physically apart.

Marissa played soccer over the course of her college career, although her time on Anderson's team was cut short after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

She shared a lengthy message on her Instagram account in November 2020 to speak about the end of her athletic career, and wrote she "couldn’t be more thankful" for the experiences she had playing for Anderson.

Marissa eventually joined an event planning company based in Jacksonville, Florida, and she  works as an event designer.

The athlete's wife made an announcement about the start of her career as an event designer on Instagram, saying she was "so excited for this new step & chasing my dreams."

Although Marissa's soccer career didn't make it out of the pandemic, her relationship with Trevor did -- and they got engaged in July 2020.

The athlete actually proposed at Clemson University's football stadium, where he starred as the QB for 3 years.

Marissa and Trevor made things official with their 2021 wedding ceremony at a church in Bluffton, South Carolina.

Kyle and Kristin Juszczyk have been together for most of his career in the NFL ... but he's not the only one who's made strides with the league!

The designer made a name for herself by creating eye-catching clothing featuring league team logos, and her work has been worn by several high-profile celebs at various games.

We're going to check out how the athlete's wife went from contemplating a career in real estate to carving out a space for herself in the fashion world.

Kristin's originally from Long Island, New York, and she began studying both fashion and business at the University of Rhode Island in 2012.

She transferred to Towson University in 2014, and graduated with a degree in business administration in 2016.

Although Kristin works as a designer now, she'd actually planned on being a realtor, and she obtained a real estate license in Maryland in her earlier years.

However, she eventually changed her mind and decided to focus on her interests in the fashion world after contemplating receiving another real estate license on the West Coast, according to Niners Nation.

Kristin started getting widespread attention for her work in fashion during the 2024-2024 NFL season, when she started creating custom clothing to wear to her husband's games.

The designer showed off much of her work on her Instagram account, and celebs like Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes were later spotted wearing her work.

Kristin eventually launched a brand, Off Season, and she scored a contract to become an official licensee of the NFL, meaning she can use the league's logos in her work.

She spoke about her efforts to get her designs to football fans in an interview with People and stated she was "so passionate" about finding a space in the market for her work.

Kristin and Kyle were first linked back in 2015, when she shared a photo featuring the fullback, who was playing for the Baltimore Ravens at the time, on her Instagram account.

The athlete and the designer dated for two years before Kyle proposed to her at a beach in May 2017.

Kristin and Kyle waited until July 2019 to tie the knot, and they held their wedding ceremony in upstate New York.

Emily Wilkinson's built a sizable fanbase over the course of her career as an influencer ... which probably got a cool little boost when she married Baker Mayfield!

The pair's been together since 2017, and they've become partners in both their personal and professional lives -- especially after they started a family!

Here's a look at how the influencer made a name for herself as a media figure, all while starting a family with the football player.

Wilkinson's originally from Nebraska, and she attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where she graduated with a degree in business administration.

Oh, and she's not the only one in her family who's made a name for herself in media, because her brother Sammy was a major personality on the social media app Vine, and he's also embarked on a career in the music industry.

Wilkinson moved to Los Angeles after graduating from college, and she began working as a patient coordinator at a plastic surgery center in Beverly Hills.

Emily eventually left the position after her now-husband started playing for the Cleveland Browns in 2018, and she's since established herself as an influencer and social media personality.

Wilkinson and Mayfield first met in 2017 when a mutual friend set them up, after which the quarterback began following and unfollowing her on Instagram, and they eventually started messaging each other, according to ESPN.

Emily said she first thought Baker would act like the "typical playboy athlete" on their first date ... but he impressed her with his honesty and asked her about her interests -- take notes, guys!

And get this -- he moved in with Emily and her three brothers just three days after their first date!

Oh and it gets better ... because the couple got engaged after just six months of dating!

Wilkinson and Mayfield made things official when they tied the knot at a ranch in Malibu, California, in July 2019.

The pair subsequently founded a charitable organization, the Baker & Emily Mayfield Foundation, in 2023.

And 2023 proved to be an even bigger year for the couple, as they announced Wilkinson's pregnancy with several photos on their Instagram accounts that December.

Jordan Love's built a solid fanbase for himself over the course of his time in professional football -- and we think his biggest supporter's got to be his wife, Ronika!

The NFL star and his partner made things official in June 2025, when they tied the knot during a beachside wedding in California, after Love established a solid connection to the athletic ambassador in the years before their ceremony.

We're going to take a look into the background of the athlete's wife and see what eventually brought them together for life.

Jordan's not the only one with athletic genes in his household, because Ronika played volleyball while attending the University of Oregon, and she was the highest-rated recruit in the school's volleyball history, according to the institution's official website.

The athlete set several records during her time with the Ducks, and she became the only player in the team's history to achieve 400 career block assists.

And in case you weren't already impressed, Ronika finished her time at Oregon as its all-time career leader in hitting percentage and block assists.

Her athletic career didn't stop her work in the classroom, either, because she graduated from the institution with a degree in journalism.

Ronika's career in volleyball continued after graduation, and she played the sport professionally with teams in France and Puerto Rico.

She eventually brought her talents back to the mainland United States, signing with the San Diego Mojo, where she plays middle blocker, in 2023.

Ronika's also taken on a role as an ambassador for League One Volleyball, with whom she started working in 2021, according to her LinkedIn.

And it looks like working in professional sports runs in her family ... because her father Ron played 12 seasons in the NFL!

Ronika and Jordan's relationship started way back in 2020, when she shared a photo with the quarterback on her Instagram account.

The pro volleyball player was featured in numerous photos and videos shared on her now-husband's Instagram account after that.

The Green Bay Packers player eventually got down on one knee and asked Ronika to marry him while they were spending time in Italy in June 2024.
