The New England Patriots are back in the Super Bowl after a 5-year absence, led by 23-year-old starting quarterback Drake Maye. The Patriots will face off with the Seattle Seahawks in a match-up that’s been more than 10 years in the making after Seahakws fell to the Patriots by 4 points in the 2015 Super Bowl. As we wait for the Super Bowl 2026 kickoff at 6:30 PM, let’s dive into the facts you need to know about the most famous wives and girlfriend of the Patriots.
Cardi B
“Bodak Yellow” rapper and former “Love & Hip Hop: New York” star Cardi B was first publicly linked to Stefon Diggs, a wide receiver for the Patriots, in 2024, and the pair made their relationship Instagram official in the late spring of 2025.
On November 3, 2025, Cardi and Diggs made a joint post captioned “PAT NATION” showing some sweet moments together on and off the football field. Later that month, the pair welcomed a baby boy.
In September 2025, Cardi told Gayle King on “CBS Mornings” that Diggs makes her feel “very safe.” She went on, “He just makes me feel safe, and very confident, and very strong. Two weeks ago, I was literally having a panic attack. I was crying and crying.” Cardi said the panic attack was brought on by her nerves surrounding the rollout of her album “Am I the Drama?”
She said Diggs encouraged her. “He was just like, ‘Girl, you better get it together.’ He makes me feel very confident,” she explained.
Ann Michael Maye
Ann Michael Maye, 22, is the wife of Drake Maye. She is a social media influencer with over half a million followers on Instagram and around the same number on TikTok, where she mainly shares recipes for gameday-ready snacks and treats.

Last week, she celebrated the team’s advancement to Super Bowl LX by captioning a snowy post-game shot from the AFC Championship in Denver, Colorado, “Taking this party to CALI!!!! what a GOOD God.”
