Gracie Hunt, the glamorous daughter of Kansas City Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt, dropped a surprising revelation about her relationship with Cody Keith-and his unexpected connection to Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes.
In an exclusive interview with OutKick, Gracie shared how her boyfriend’s long-standing friendship with Mahomes brought an extra twist to their love story.
“He and Patrick actually trained together out of college. They’ve been buddies this whole time, and it’s just so funny how small the world is,” Gracie revealed. “It took him all this time to meet me!”
Though Mahomes and Keith attended different colleges, their bond dates back to their football days when they trained together. While Mahomes soared to NFL stardom, Keith faced a tougher road. Injuries plagued his career, forcing him to shift gears after multiple rookie mini-camp stints with the Colts, Commanders, and Ravens.
Football brought Gracie and Cody together
Now a successful real estate broker with his family’s company, Keith Corporation, Cody has swapped touchdowns for townhouses but hasn’t left football behind entirely. Throughout the 2024 season, he’s been spotted cheering for the Chiefs alongside Gracie, making their shared love for the game a centerpiece of their relationship.
Gracie, a well-known figure in the NFL community and passionate Chiefs supporter, beamed about how football has brought them closer. “We’re grateful we can easily travel to see each other.”
“He’s made a huge effort to come to the games this year, which has been so much fun. It’s been really special having him be part of football season,” she said.
Keith is a successful real estate broker
Cody Keith, who grew up in Charlotte before attending East Carolina University on a full athletic scholarship, graduated with a degree in communications in 2014.
Despite his NFL dreams being sidelined, his journey led him to a successful career in real estate and now to a budding romance with Gracie, making him a familiar face in Chiefs Kingdom.
With their shared football roots and ties to Patrick Mahomes, Gracie and Cody’s story is a testament to how small-and connected-the world of sports can be.
