Having been together since high school, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes are parents to a son and a daughter.

Even though their life appears glamorous on the outside, the couple nonetheless faces the same problems that ordinary parents have when their children are ill.

The Kansas City Current co-owner posted a photo of her 3-year-old daughter Sterling Skye on her Instagram Stories this week with the message, “Day 4 of sickness for my baby boo. Some stomach virus that won’t get the heck out of here.”

In the picture she shared, Sterling could be seen with her eyes closed as she rested on her mother as Brittany wrapped her arm around her eldest child.

Brittany also added a sad and crying emoji to the picture.

Social media quickly sent prayers to her family as well as the child:

Sterling’s unlucky stomach virus struck more than two months after the NFL family celebrated her historic third birthday with an exciting party two days earlier on February 20.

Fortunately, Bronze, Sterling’s younger brother, who is one year old, appeared to be unaffected by the illness, as Brittany posted a cute photo of the young guy less than a day ago, cuddling up on the couch and gripping a tiny toy putter.

Later, Brittany posted another photo of the mother-daughter pair swimming in a pool in the follow-up story, which showed Sterling’s speedy recovery.

“Who says a dip in the pool can’t fix it,” the mother of two wrote on the photo. “Sis randomly just said she wanted to go swimming so we are feeling better.”

Brittany Mahomes brought Professional Soccer To Kansas City

It would seem improbable that Brittany Mahomes would be the boss of a professional women’s soccer club. She is well-known in the NFL as the spouse of quarterback Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs, or perhaps as Taylor Swift’s new closest friend.

Having launched the Kansas City Current with Chris and Angie Long, Brittany now shares ownership with Patrick, via Wikipedia.
