Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has been happily married to Kelly Stafford since 2015.
The NFL player met his wife while attending the University of Georgia, and the couple now happily shares four daughters: twins Sawyer and Chandler, 8, along with Hunter, 6, and Tyler, 5.
But before they tied the knot, Kelly, 36, signed what she's now calling a very "generous" pre-nuptial agreement..
“I had been with my husband for a while, but I was still young and very naive of this whole situation,” Kelly, said on her podcast, “The Morning After,” on Monday, July 7. “It was very fair. He was obviously generous in it all.”

Kelly Stafford wasn't crazy about signing a pre-nuptial agreement before marrying Matthew Stafford
Despite ultimately agreeing to sign the pre-nup before she walked down the aisle, the Rams star's wife admitted that she wasn't too keen on signing it.
"We had talked about prenups even before getting engaged. I was very naive and was like, ‘I feel like we’re planning our divorce before getting married. I don’t really love the idea," Kelly said. "Something that really helped us was, the minute we got engaged, we were working on it."
The NFL WAG recalled telling the NFL quarterback that she wanted to sign it quickly so they could move on from the discussions.
“I told him, ‘I don’t want to get near the wedding. I don’t want to have to think about it.’ Again, at this moment I had such a negative feeling about it," she said. "I knew that I loved this man and he loved me. This is what had to happen. And that’s totally fine.”
After they signed the pre-nup, Matthew married Kelly roughly six years after he was drafted as the number 1 overall draft pick by the Detroit Lions.
He signed a six-year, $72 million contract in 2009 before signing a three-year, $53 million extension in 2013. He was later traded to the Rams in 2021.
