Brittany Mahomes just snagged a rather impressive piece of hardware: the Champion for Change Award from United WE. The honor? For her other full-time job, leading the NWSL's Kansas City Current.

And because apparently, that's just how they roll, her husband, a certain quarterback named Patrick Mahomes, was right there to cheer her on.

Brittany posted a carousel of photos from the ceremony on Instagram, looking every bit the part of someone changing the game. She used the caption to underline the significance of the award, emphasizing the critical need to prioritize women in both sports and professional settings. She also pointed out the rather poetic irony that the ceremony took place in the Current's new, purpose-built stadium — the first in the world specifically designed for a women's professional sports team.

Patrick, clearly not one to miss a moment, was quick to drop a comment: "Congrats babe! You deserve it! Love you!" Because, as we all know, nothing says 'power couple goals' quite like a public display of affection from a Super Bowl MVP.

Fans, naturally, piled on with their own congratulations and general admiration. The high school sweethearts, who officially tied the knot in 2022, now juggle three children (Sterling Skye, Patrick "Bronze" Lavon III, and Golden Raye) and, apparently, a joint mission to conquer the sports world. Which, if you think about it, is both impressive and slightly terrifying for anyone competing against them.
