Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ wife, Brittany Mahomes, has been unveiled as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s rookie for 2024. The former soccer player’s inclusion in the prestigious magazine’s lineup was announced on Thursday, ahead of the publication’s highly anticipated 60th-anniversary issue scheduled for release in May.
In the announcement video, Mahomes graces the screen adorned in a striking red one-piece swimsuit by Mugler and a stylish bikini crafted by Natalia Fedner. Her presence epitomizes modern empowerment, reflecting her journey from athlete to influential figure. As the founder of the first dedicated stadium for women’s sports globally, Mahomes exemplifies tenacity and determination, inspiring countless individuals along the way.
Expressing pride in Mahomes’ induction, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit editor-in-chief MJ Day lauded her as a symbol of female empowerment. Day stated, “We are proud to welcome her to the SI Swimsuit family where she will undoubtedly continue to empower women worldwide.”
The announcement coincides with the upcoming Super Bowl LVIII, where Mahomes’ husband will lead the Kansas City Chiefs against the San Francisco 49ers. Beyond her role as a supportive spouse, Mahomes is also a prominent figure in women’s sports. As the owner of the Kansas City Current NWSL team and the visionary behind the CPKC Stadium, slated to open this year, Mahomes champions women’s professional sports.
Despite retiring from soccer in 2017, Mahomes remains actively involved in fitness training while nurturing her two children, Sterling and Bronze, shared with Patrick. The Mahomes family gained attention in 2022 when they featured in Skims’ Holiday campaign, further solidifying their status as influencers beyond the sports realm.
Mahomes’ fashion sense has also garnered attention, with notable appearances on the red carpet. Notably, she dazzled in a silver metallic off-the-shoulder cup dress by Alex Perry at Netflix’s “Quarterback” documentary premiere. Additionally, she turned heads at the 2023 ESPY Awards in Los Angeles, donning a stunning Versace bra-cup dress.
As Mahomes embarks on this new chapter with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, her journey continues to inspire, empowering women worldwide and transcending boundaries both on and off the field.
