Martha Stewart, the beloved lifestyle mogul, had a delightful encounter at the 2024 Super Bowl when she met fellow Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Brittany Mahomes. The 82-year-old Stewart had the pleasure of meeting 28-year-old Brittany, who is not only the owner of the Kansas City Current FC but is also married to none other than Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. The exciting meet-cute took place during Super Bowl weekend in Las Vegas, and Stewart couldn't contain her excitement, sharing photos from the memorable encounter on her Instagram.
The first two images showcased the warm embrace between Brittany and Stewart, radiating genuine happiness. In the subsequent pictures, Stewart can be seen posing with Brittany and her adorable one-year-old son, Patrick 'Bronze' Lavon. To express her joy, Stewart playfully captioned her Instagram post, 'One Sports Illustrated Swimsuit to another,' acknowledging Brittany's recent debut in the coveted swimsuit issue.
While the full spread featuring Brittany has yet to be revealed, fans eagerly await the upcoming 60th-anniversary issue of Sports Illustrated, set to be published in May. In the May 2023 cover story, Martha Stewart had the honor of appearing as one of four cover models alongside Megan Fox, Kim Petras, and Brooks Nader. Thrilled by the opportunity, Stewart had considered it a 'once in a lifetime' experience. She wittily remarked, 'It should have been 30 years ago,' adding, 'That would have been great. It was not a goal I set for myself, but once asked, I thought to myself, let's do it!'
On Thursday, Brittany Mahomes announced her own debut in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, unveiling a joint behind-the-scenes video on Instagram alongside the magazine. The shoot, beautifully captured by photographer Derek Kettela, will be featured in the highly anticipated 60th-anniversary issue.

However, the standout piece was an alluring Mugler halter-neck swimsuit, featuring a bold cutout that accentuated her perfectly toned figure. Brittany's confidence and beauty shone through in every shot, embodying the empowering message she wished to convey to women everywhere.
Taking to her Instagram Story, Brittany shared her motivation behind this incredible opportunity. She expressed her desire to inspire women to always be true to themselves, love themselves, and feel confident in whatever they do. She believed that Sports Illustrated Swimsuit shared this same vision of empowerment. In a heartfelt message, Brittany encouraged her followers, saying, 'I'm here to tell you, people will dislike you, people will love you. Don't let any of that define you. KEEP SHINING and being YOU.'
