It’s a feeling that can’t be put into words – the rush of emotions a dad experiences when cradling his baby girl. And for NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes, that deep daddy-daughter connection is something he’s embraced with open arms.
In a recent conversation on the IMPAULSIVE podcast, Mahomes got real about raising his 3-year-old daughter Sterling alongside his son Bronze. The 28-year-old quarterback feels that it’s a baby girl that makes you grow up. As Mahomes gushed to Logan Paul, who just announced he’s “having a baby girl”, “She like Daddy’s girl like anything she wants I’ll do I’ll look at my son and be like stop that and I look at her and I’m just like I’ll I’ll figure it out.”
Those words struck a chord with Paul, who is nervously awaiting the birth of his first child with fiancée Nina Agdal. “I’m so nervous I’m really nervous a girl Dad it dude it’s it,” the YouTuber admitted. But Mahomes was quick to reassure his fellow soon-to-be father about the joys ahead.
“The first few years man has been special dude,” Mahomes shared. “Mom does everything you just are you’re just like you’re like the assist man you’re just on the side like what can I get you a bottle a diaper whatever just to get there and um those first years man are awesome well.”
Paul and Agdal announced earlier this month that they are expecting their first child, and even held a wrestling-themed party to reveal to their friends, family, and followers that their soon-to-be-born daughter is on the way. The Danish model is expecting to deliver her first child this fall.
As for Mahomes, it’s clear that despite being an elite athlete with the weight of a 3-peat championship glory on his shoulders, Mahomes’ greatest pride is wrapped up in his role as a dad. His candid reflections provide a touching glimpse into how fatherhood shapes a man’s perspective and priorities.
Speaking of priceless daddy-daughter moments, Mahomes and Sterling recently shared an adorable one right there on the golf course. Thanks to some Instagram videos and stories from Brittany Mahomes, fans got to see their playful bond in action during the quarterback’s charity golf event in Las Vegas for his 15 and the Mahomies Foundation.
As Brittany chronicled in one humorous clip, a golf club-toting Sterling approaches her laser-focused pops as he’s lining up a shot. Not one to be distracted from his game, Mahomes gently shushes his daughter before taking his swing. The next photo shows Patrick watching with a “bemused look” as Sterling’s “feelings get hurt,” turning away from her dad.
While it may not have been a happy memory for Sterling at that moment, the interaction highlighted the beautiful dynamics between father and daughter. As Brittany shared, “They love their dada” and these are the little things that matter in creating cherished family moments.
It’s heartwarming scenes like these that remind us athletes are human too. While Mahomes may dominate on the gridiron, at home he’s just a regular dad trying to soak up every second with his loved ones. His unbreakable rapport with Sterling is something many can relate to and aspire towards in their own families. As Logan Paul prepares to start that same incredible journey, he’d be wise to take notes from the NFL star on cherishing every milestone. As Mahomes reflected, “nothing like in the world” compares to fatherhood.
