Watch: Brittany Mahomes Says She Fractured Her Back

Brittany Mahomes is healing from a recent injury.

The former soccer player—who shares children Sterling, 3, and Patrick "Bronze," 15 months, with husband Patrick Mahomes—gave fans a health update on March 6 complete with a warning for those who've given birth.

"Just your daily reminder: Once you have kids please take care of your pelvic floor. Seriously," she captioned an Instagram Stories selfie. "From: A girl with a fractured back."

Pelvic floor complications can be a result of child birth and manifest as lower back pain, loss of bladder control and more symptoms, according to the University of Utah Health.

While the 28-year-old didn't reveal what exactly led to her back injury, she did offer a positive follow-up on her recovery process.

Posting a photo of daughter Sterling holding Patrick's hand, Brittany wrote, "But vacaying with my homies will maybe make it better?"

When she's not at home with her littles, Brittany has been a fixture at her husband's Kansas City Chiefs games over the years, and even spent the past season bonding with Taylor Swift as the duo cheered on their partners on the field.

And Brittany—who wed high school sweetheart Patrick in 2022—has been candid about the scrutiny that comes with constantly being in the public eye.

"People are going to love you or hate you," she said as she made her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit debut in February. "But finding your values and what makes you 'you' to be the best version of yourself is what really matters."
