Brittany Mahomes wants to raise awareness about severe food allergies in young children after her 1-year-old son, Bronze, was rushed to the hospital due to an undiscovered peanut allergy over the summer.
Mahomes called the incident “one of the scariest experiences of [her] life” and is now hoping to teach others “how to best respond” if they ever face a similar situation.
“Like all moms, my kids’ safety and happiness is my number one priority,” the 28-year-old captioned a video of her and her little ones on Instagram Wednesday.
“I recently received an outpouring of support from other moms and parents after sharing my experience with Bronze’s severe allergic reaction to peanuts.”
In the video, Brittany sat on a couch with her son, Bronze — whose full name is Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III — and daughter Sterling Skye, almost 3, whom she shares with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

“Based on my experience, I can tell you that a severe reaction may not look how you think it should look,” the mother of two continued.
