‘Round three,’ as Brittany Mahomes put it, was anything but easy. Back in July, she shared how her third pregnancy was the “hardest” one physically as it came with skin issues, sickness, and exhaustion. So in January, when Brittany and Patrick welcomed their third child, a daughter, whom they named Golden Raye Mahomes, she was thrilled. But she also quickly went into recovery mode, as the pregnancy had taken a toll on her health.
For instance, in February, the proud mama of three took to her Instagram stories and mentioned, “Ever since I have been home from having golden I have had a green recovery score (except the first night),” and also shared an image of her health status on Whoop, which is a wearable fitness tracker. She couldn’t help but add how she was happy “to not be pregnant and tired all the time.” And now, Brittany Mahomes is making a postpartum comeback! Chiefs‘ QB, Patrick Mahomes‘ wife, is grinding hard and is making a solid return to her signature habit: Fitness. At the same time, she is helping her friend, Melissa Matthews, in her new pregnancy journey.
Partnering with longtime trainer Kirsty Rae (@kirstyraefitness), a specialist in prenatal and postpartum health, Brittany reshared her story. The caption to Rae’s story read, “I freaking love getting back with my mamas I worked with throughout their pregnancy when they’re ready to start their postpartum fitness journey.”

She further wrote, “It’s a true testament to how moving your body, lifting weights, focusing on mobility, breathwork, and pelvic floor can aid in a smoother postpartum recovery. WE READY @brittanylynne.” Rae is a mom of two, and back in June 2024, she revealed how her second pregnancy came with emotions like guilt and sadness. But seeing her children grow together gave her the joy she never thought she was capable of feeling. Her kids are 14 months apart, and while some may call it a chaotic and challenging situation, it made Rae stronger. Because of her own experiences with pregnancy, she was able to understand what Brittany was going through.
No wonder, back in December 2024, the trainer praised Brittany Mahomes, who was working out while in her third trimester. “Third trimester’s my fave stage of pregnancy when it comes to training. There’s studies that show your body basically goes into superhuman mode to prepare for child birth. So badass,” she had written in her story.
But now, from barbell back squats to bear crawls, hip thrusts, and upright rows, Brittany’s training routine does not just speak of her athletic background, but also how she has evolved her perspective as a mother of three. And, she is targeting both functional strength and long-term recovery. In a recent story, Brittany was wearing black workout attire, with a black tank top and black leggings. Now in her self-proclaimed “cardio era,” she is documenting her return to gym routines. In fact, in March, she wore a pink outfit, sharing a sneak peek, as she wrote, “How much pink is too much?” on Instagram.

But fitness has also been a family affair. Daughter Sterling (age 4) was also seen on a toy treadmill with foam weights, as she mimicked her mom’s moves in late March. “Nice,” Brittany was cheering her off-camera.

And in a video that captured hearts, Brittany performed weighted squats with 2-year-old Bronze perched in her arms, back in January this year. This balance of motherhood and movement isn’t new to Brittany. “We don’t just sit in the house and watch TV,” she affirmed. And, she is not just championing her own life, but her friends’ pregnancies too.

Despite her recent delivery, Brittany was there for her friends, too. Months after her own delivery, she supported her close friend, Melissa Matthews, who was a mom-to-be. She made a heartfelt post for Melissa’s baby shower, writing, “Showered my girl today. Can’t wait for you to become Mama Mel.” As a mom of three, Brittany Mahomes is indeed excelling in all domains.

Between Sterling Skye’s 4th birthday, a viral Disney trip, a tropical girls’ getaway, and a picture-perfect Easter portrait that featured all five family members, Brittany continues to celebrate life and fitness everywhere.
With a clean diet, movement, consistency, and staying hydrated, she is indeed poised to make such a solid recovery. “I do eat healthy. I like to put good foods into my body. I feel better that way,” she said in February. From fish and veggies with coconut rice to steak and couscous dinners, her meals are all about balance. She is truly taking care of herself.
