Patrick Mahomes Transforms Into a New Role—And It’s Not What You Think!
OPINION: This article may contain commentary which reflects the author's opinion.
Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs’ star quarterback, is no stranger to accolades, awards, and breaking records on the football field. But behind the MVP titles and Super Bowl rings lies a role that may surprise you—fatherhood.
While Brittany Mahomes, a new mother to the couple’s third child, Golden Raye, is busy creating cherished memories with their older children, Sterling and Bronze, Patrick is stepping into a new role that transcends the football field. He’s now becoming an inspiration—not just as a father, but as a role model for future generations.
Two days ago, Brittany took their children to the Peppa Pig Theme Park, where little Sterling found a new hobby—baking. Inspired by the beloved children’s show, which features Peppa Pig helping her mom in the kitchen, Sterling tried her hand at baking with a little assistance from her grandmother and Brittany. In a heartwarming Instagram story, Brittany shared a snapshot of Sterling, wearing a pink apron and a baker’s hat, whisking batter with pure joy. “My Girl🥺,” Brittany wrote in a heartfelt caption, expressing her deep love for these precious moments spent with her children.
Brittany, who gave birth to Golden Raye in January, is determined to balance time with her older children while adjusting to life as a family of five. But it’s Patrick who is setting an example for his kids in a completely different way. Off the field, Patrick is embracing the role of being a source of inspiration, not only for his children but for a whole new generation of NFL hopefuls.
Patrick’s latest venture is one that will leave a lasting legacy: his children’s book. Co-authored with Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara and illustrated by Guilherme Karsten, the book Patrick Mahomes (Little People, BIG DREAMS) was released in January. It provides young readers with an inspiring look into his life, from overcoming childhood challenges to claiming the Lombardi Trophy. For parents, it’s a wonderful way to instill the values Patrick holds dear in their own kids.
As a father of three, Patrick has always made family a priority. He credits much of his success to the upbringing he received from his father, Pat Mahomes Sr., a former professional baseball pitcher. In interviews, Patrick has spoken about his commitment to not pushing his children into anything but letting them explore their own interests. “I’m going to teach my son, my daughter all the fundamentals and whatever they want to learn. But at the same time, I want to let it be about them,” he said in October 2022. His goal is to empower his children the way his parents did for him—without pressure.
Off the field, Patrick is proving that champions aren’t defined solely by their athletic accomplishments. He’s showing us all that greatness comes from the values we instill in the next generation. Whether he’s on the field or in the kitchen helping his kids bake a cake, Patrick Mahomes is proving that a true MVP is made not just in sports but in everyday life. And as his children grow up watching him play and reading about his remarkable journey, one thing is certain: Patrick Mahomes is a powerhouse—on and off the field.
