While reflecting on her exhausting pregnancy, Brittany praised Patrick, 29, for being the “most supportive husband in the world.”

“If I’m complaining or I’m in a bad mood, he gets it. He’s not gonna argue with me,” she noted. “He’s not gonna push my buttons. He knows.”

Patrick and Brittany started dating as teenagers in high school, and they stayed together throughout Patrick’s rise to NFL stardom after he was drafted to the Chiefs in 2017. Patrick and Brittany got engaged in 2020 after eight years together. They exchanged vows in March 2022.

“My brother Jackson [Mahomes], whenever we were trying to find something that was a little unique and different, he said, ‘What about Bronze? It fits perfectly with Sterling,’” Patrick said during a press conference in November 2022. “So, we went with that. It works out well. He can have his own thing now where he’s not Patrick, he’s Bronze, even though he’s Patrick. And, Sterling and Bronze can have that connection moving forward.”

As for Sterling, Brittany discussed the special connection, sharing on Instagram Story in April 2023. “I got [our dog] Steel in college and named him that. We then got our second dog and was gonna name her Sterling because it went with Steel perfect.”

Brittany continued: “Then I said no, I want that to be my daughter’s name, so then we came up with Silver to go with Steel.”

“I feel like he’s somewhat changed my life, saved my life,” he told The Hollywood Reporter in 2018. “I will say that him and other people that I look up to very much and to see this person in the flesh and just know in my high school brain, I was like, ‘I just hope to be like him one day,’ and I’m sitting here looking at him.”

Horton considered it an honor to spend time with Washington on set.

“I want to stargaze, I want to ask him 2,000 questions, but I also want to be as good as him right now and try and create this scene,” he shared. “So it was really tough, but we got to talk about a lot of stuff. We talked about Shakespeare, we talked about God, we talked about love, making mistakes and stuff like that, but it was a really, really humbling experience for me.”
