Gracie Hunt is engaged to Derek Green, the youngest son of former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Trent Green.
The NFL heiress, who is the daughter of billionaire Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt, announced the exciting news in a sweet Instagram post on Saturday.
“It was always you,” Gracie, 27, wrote alongside a series of pics from Derek’s proposal.

The photos showed Derek, 26, down on one knee as he popped the question to his now-fiancée beneath an outdoor altar decorated with white flowers.
Another featured the happy couple kissing, while a third showed the NFL heiress’s emerald-cut engagement ring, which was encrusted with white diamonds and a single emerald stone along the band.
The carousel of photos also included some of the pair’s family and friends filming the proposal and clapping in celebration after Gracie said “yes.”
Gracie’s mom, Tavia, took to her own Instagram over the weekend to celebrate her daughter and future son-in-law’s engagement.

“We’re getting another SON!!” the 54-year-old wrote on her Instagram Stories. “Gracie Green has a nice ring to it!!”
Tavia and Clark share daughters Gracie and Ava, 21, as well as a 23-year-old son, Knobel.
“Forever looks so beautiful on these two,” Gracie’s mom continued. “God brought these two together in such a special way, and our hearts are overflowing with joy … We are so grateful for His hand in their lives and so excited for all that lies ahead.”

Gracie first teased her and Derek’s relationship in a since-deleted Instagram video of them together at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, in April 2025.
“After meeting 7.5 years ago in this place… all along there was some invisible string,” she captioned the clip while quoting Taylor Swift’s song “Invisible String” from the pop star’s album “Folklore.”
Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, both 36, are also engaged. Kelce asked the “Fate of Ophelia” hitmaker to marry him in August 2025.
Gracie, meanwhile, returned to social media in July of last year to reveal that she and her now-fiancé have been “friends since 2017.”

“I’m dating my best friend,” Gracie wrote in the Instagram post with Swift’s “You Belong With Me” playing in the background.
Before dating Derek, Gracie was with real estate broker Cody Keith.
Keith wasn’t seen at the NFL heiress’s 26th birthday party in March 2025, nor in attendance for the Chiefs’ 2025 Super Bowl loss against the Philadelphia Eagles that February.
