Patrick Mahomesâ grandfather is in hospice care, the Kansas City Chiefs starâs mother Randi Mahomes has announced.
On Jan. 24, Randi revealed that her father, Randy, entered hospice care months after a previously announced hospital stay.
In an Instagram Stories upload, Randi shared an image of herself and her dad, alongside a caption referencing bible verse Colossians 3:20: âChildren, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.â
âMy dad is in hospice and Iâm lost for words đđđ,â she wrote over the image.
The news of Patrickâs grandfatherâs health comes over four months after Randi announced on her X account in September that her dad had been hospitalized for an undisclosed reason.
âPrayer warriors please pray for my daddy,â she wrote at the time. âHe is in the hospital and is not well. đđđđđđđ.â
In the weeks to follow, Randi continued to update fans on her dadâs status, sharing an image of him watching one of Patrickâs games on television on Sept. 29, before revealing that she also paid him a visit in November.
âHad the best day visiting my dad.. please keep him in your prayers to get stronger #blessed,â Randi wrote on Nov. 12.

Speaking with reporters at a recent press conference, when asked if he and Brittany, 29, have plans to add another Mahomes to the crew, Patrick clarified that heâs personally âgood with three for right now.â
âWeâll see down the line, maybe,â he continued. âBut my goal was always three. So weâve had three. And weâll stick there for a while and see if we need to come back and get another one later on.â
At the time, the athlete also revealed that Brittany was âdoing everythingâ as they transitioned to becoming a family of five, noting that heâs been âjust trying to be supportiveâ amid the NFL playoffs.
Patrick then described what itâs like to see his two older children adjust to having a baby sister. âItâs cool to welcome another baby girl in our family and see how our kids react to her,â he said. âHaving baby sissy and stuff like that â itâs been a lot of fun.â
