Gracie Hunt, daughter of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, subtly announced a major relationship update over the weekend. In a surprise twist shared via Instagram, the social media influencer and model hinted that she has moved on from former boyfriend Cody Keith and is now dating someone new.
In a story posted from inside Arrowhead Stadium, Hunt was seen with her arms wrapped around an unidentified man. The moment, captured in a short video, was paired with a cryptic caption:
“After meeting 7.5 years ago in this place … all along there was some invisible string.”
Referencing Swift's song “Invisible String.”
While she didn’t tag or name her new partner, the post suggests a deep, long-standing connection—possibly with someone involved in the Chiefs organization. The timing of the post during the offseason only added to the intrigue.
Split from Cody Keith Confirmed
The update confirms speculation that Hunt and her former boyfriend, Cody Keith, had gone their separate ways. The two had made their relationship public last September, and Hunt even opened up about it in an interview with OutKick later that year.
Keith, a former quarterback and real estate broker from North Carolina, also had ties to the Chiefs' inner circle. He reportedly trained with Patrick Mahomes after college, and Hunt previously noted Mahomes had given their relationship his blessing.
“He grew up playing football and he and Patrick actually trained together out of college,” she told OutKick.
“They have been buddies this whole time, and it took him all this time to meet me.”
Social Media Marks an Almost Silent Split
By early this year, astute fans were beginning to notice a shift. Hunt had yet to mention Keith for quite some time, and traces of him on her social media were removed under the radar. Keith, now laying low, has taken his Instagram account private, thereby dealing rather significant blows to the breakup rumors.
His no-show during the key events was also telling: he was conspicuous by his absence at the Super Bowl in New Orleans when the Chiefs lost to the Eagles, and neither was he captured in Hunt's birthday pictures last month.
Long-Distance Relationship Had Its Challenges
At the time of their relationship, Hunt had praised Keith's commitment despite the challenges of living apart.
“We are grateful that we can easily travel to see each other,” she shared with *OutKick*.
“He has made a huge effort to come to the games this year which has been so much fun to get to share football season with him.
I get out there as much as I can. It has been a wonderful year. I couldn’t have cooked it up in my playbook. I’m grateful for all of it.”
What’s Next for Gracie?
As fans continue to speculate about the identity of her new partner, one thing’s clear—Gracie Hunt remains in the spotlight, both as a social media presence and a growing public figure in the NFL world. And whether it's in the stands or online, she's always ready to make headlines.
