NEED TO KNOW

• Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany Mahomes announced they are expecting their fourth child on Tuesday, Nov. 10

Patrick Mahomes is revealing his predictions for his and Brittany Mahomes’ fourth baby’s sex.

“Obviously, it’s a blessing to have another baby on the way. I’m excited for it,” Patrick, 31, said during a team press conference on Wednesday, Nov. 11.

“I’m hoping that me and Bronze can even up the score,” he joked, alluding to his hope to have another son. “I’m just praying for a healthy baby at the end of the day.”

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and Brittany are parents to daughter Sterling Skye, 5, son Patrick “Bronze” Lavon III, 3, and daughter Golden Raye, 19 months.

When a reporter noted that each time Brittany, also 31, has announced she is expecting a baby, the Chiefs have won a Super Bowl, Patrick said he hopes the trend continues this season.

“I’m hoping. I don’t know if Brittany is,” Patrick said with a laugh. “But I’m hoping if we can keep that going and get another Super Bowl win with a baby on the way, that’d be awesome for sure.”

The couple announced they are expecting their fourth baby on Tuesday, Nov. 10, in a joint Instagram post captioned “Another blessing from God🥹🙏🏼 & then there were 6🤍.”

The post was accompanied by photos of the family of five on a beach, and ended with a sweet photo of the entire family touching Brittany’s belly as she smiles at the growing bump.

The high school sweethearts became first-time parents after Patrick won his first Super Bowl in 2020, when they welcomed daughter Sterling in February 2021. In the years since, the couple has maintained their tradition of naming their kids after different types of precious metals.

In June, Brittany shared a snap of an “All About My Dad” form that Sterling had filled out for school. On the form, Sterling wrote that Patrick is always positive and says, “You can do it!” and gives the “best hugs.”

In October 2022, Patrick opened up about being a father during an episode of Football in America. The pro athlete said he intends to “stay out of the way” when it comes to his kids’ individual interests, whether they be football or other sports and hobbies.

“I’m going to teach my son, my daughter all the fundamentals and whatever they want to learn,” he said at the time. “But at the same time … I want to let it be about them … That’s what my dad did growing up, that’s what my parents did. They didn’t pressure me to do anything. I think that’s why I’m in the position I am today.”
