Playoff football can be stomach-churning for everybody, but one of Kelly Stafford’s daughters had more than nerves to worry about during the Rams’ Wild Card game against the Vikings.
After Kelly, the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, revealed she and her daughters had spent time at the hospital on Friday, January 10, Kelly said one of her girls was still battling illness, even vomiting while cheering on her dad at the Monday, January 13, playoff game.
“This girl ❤️. In the middle of her pukes in the bathroom, ‘Mommy, are we still winning,’” Kelly wrote alongside a picture of her daughter hugging Matthew after the game. “She couldn’t wait to be in his arms.”
Kelly and Matthew, who have been married since 2015, share four daughters: twins Sawyer and Chandler, 7, Hunter, 6 and Tyler, 4.

The game took place at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, home of the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals, after it was forced to be relocated from Inglewood, California’s SoFi Stadium due to the raging wildfires impacting the greater Los Angeles area.
Kelly shared another picture from the game, showing her on the ground with her daughter in her arms and a bucket — presumably for the aforementioned puke — nearby.
“Fun to watch my guy, but damn are we glad that game is over,” Kelly wrote.
Kelly also shared a video from the plane ride back to Los Angeles, with all four of her girls either asleep or watching something on one of their tablets.
“Almost home,” she wrote, “such damn troopers.”
Kelly first revealed that illness had broken out amongst the Stafford family on the Tuesday, January 7 episode of her “Morning After” podcast.
“I can’t think straight,” Kelly said. “I currently believe I have the flu. Two of my daughters have the flu.”
Things were so bad that Kelly said Matthew “won’t come close to me, which I completely understand.

Days later, Kelly shared a photo of two of her daughters asleep together in a hospital bed. “Last night was long,” she shared on Saturday, January 11.

“Found our happy place in AZ,” Kelly wrote alongside a picture of two of her girls sitting in a restaurant booth. The Georgia native added, “My southern ❤️is so happy.”
The Rams will travel to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles on Sunday, January 19, with a spot in the NFC Championship Game on the line. The game kicks off at 3 p.m. ET on NBC.
