Patrick Mahomes is kicking off the week with family time watching the eclipse.
In a series of Instagram Stories, Brittany Mahomes shared videos of her and her NFL star husband, both 28, showing their kids the sky during the total solar eclipse Monday, April 8. In one clip, Patrick can be seen holding his 3-year-old daughter, Sterling Skye, while they both cover their eyes with protective glasses.
“Sterling what do you see?” Brittany asks the toddler from behind the camera.
“I see the moon,” Sterling responds as the Kansans City Chiefs quarterback looks up in awe.

On Sunday, *NSYNC alum Lance Bass shared some of NASA’s safety tips ahead of his eclipse viewing.
“During these celestial events, the sun, Earth and moon are in sync — creating solar eclipses,” the singer, who serves on the board of the National Space Society, said in a video clip. “You can look directly at the sun during a total solar eclipse, but only when it’s completely covered by the moon for a brief period known as totality. This is a really special moment.”
Kelly Osbourne also took to Instagram on Monday to share a photo of her and her partner Sid Wilson watching the event.
