Brittany Mahomes kept one piece of family art out of sight for several years. On Sept. 27, a camera caught it while she held her youngest daughter, Golden, at a Chiefs game in Miami. Fans noticed the ink right away, and Brittany explained it on Instagram Stories two days later. Then, on Nov. 10, she and her husband Patrick Mahomes announced they are expecting baby No. 4. The tattoo now sits beside a much bigger family story, one that is about to add a fourth name to the Mahomes household.

Brittany Mahomes' Tattoo And What It Holds

Brittany, 31, cradled Golden on the sideline as the Chiefs beat the Dolphins 24-10. Sterling and Golden wore matching houndstooth dresses stitched with "Mahomes 15," so cameras were already on the family. Fans zoomed in on her forearm and the questions piled up.

Two days later, she answered on Instagram Stories."I guess I have never showed my tattoo and people are so intrigued," wrote the Kansas City Current co-founder.

She then gave the key details, describing the "side profile of my kiddos with Patrick's initials into their names and birthdays."

The design runs up the inside of her arm. The birthdays it carries span less than four years: Sterling in February 2021, Bronze in November 2022 and Golden in January 2025. That is a lot of family history for one piece of skin, and Brittany chose to share it only when fans asked.

Patrick Mahomes Baby No. 4 And The Family's Next Chapter

The couple made their announcement in a joint Instagram post. Beach photos showed all five of them together, and the final slide had everyone touching Brittany's bump. The caption read, “Another blessing from God ... & then there were 6.”

Patrick, 31, and Brittany met in high school in Texas and married in Hawaii in March 2022. Their children are Sterling Skye, Patrick "Bronze" Lavon III and Golden Raye. Sterling, Bronze and Golden all nod to precious metals, and the couple has said nothing to suggest that pattern will stop. They have not shared a name or due date for the new baby.

Patrick has talked often this season about life at home. On Oct. 14, he described his bye week as a chase around the house. “Bronze loves to play tackle now,” he said. Brittany posted in September that he was "Dad of the year" after playing with Bronze in the rain.

Whether the tattoo changes is her call, and she has not commented on it. For now, fans have a new reason to watch her Instagram, and the answer will likely come the same way the explanation did: when she decides to post it.
