Tavia Hunt, wife of Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt, shared a heartwarming birthday tribute to her daughters on Instagram. Amid offseason buzz, the post offered a personal look at the family behind the NFL dynasty.

Tavia Hunt, the wife of Clark Hunt, the CEO and chairman of the Chiefs, has posted a birthday tribute for their daughters on Instagram.

“Happy birthday to my beautiful birthday twins.👯‍♀️💕🎂,” the opening line of the caption read.

In her caption, she also mentioned that now, she sees them not just as her daughters, but as the women they’ve become, alongside personal messages for both of them.

Tavia Hunt is the director of the Kansas City Chiefs Women’s Organization, and she married Clark Hunt in 1993. They have 3 children together: Gracie, Knobel, and Ava.

Like her mother, Gracie Hunt grew up to become a pageant queen, winning Miss Texas Teen International in 2016 and 2018, and Miss Kansas USA in 2021. She was born in 1999. In the post, Tavia Hunt praised her keeping this in mind.

“Gracie—your discipline, depth, and unwavering faith inspire me. You are strong, thoughtful, and grounded in truth in a way that is rare. And your quirky, funny side that most people don’t get to see is simply the best,” the caption further read.

A separate message was written for Ava Hunt, the 2018 Miss PreTeen Texas International winner.

“Ava—joyful, vibrant, and full of life and love. You light up every room, draw people in, and remind us all how to live with kindness and a full heart. Your big, infectious laugh is pure joy, and your quickness to forget and forgive is one of the most beautiful reflections of your heart,” the caption continued.

Ava Hunt is a philanthropist who loves books. She has founded the nonprofit “Turn the Page,” where she provides free or affordable, age-appropriate books to children.

“Daddy and I are so proud. We love you beyond measure. And I thank God all day every day that He chose me to be your mama. 🙏🏼💞 Happy birthday! 🎂,” the caption concluded.

Over the years, the Hunt family has accomplished a lot with the Kansas City Chiefs.

A Look at the Chiefs' Owners: Hunt Family

Clark Hunt was named the chairman of the Kansas City Chiefs in 2005. He hired Andy Reid in 2013, which led to steady growth and Super Bowl Championships since 2018.

All 3 heirs of the Hunt family have attended Southern Methodist University. Gracie and Knobel Hunt both inherited the passion for Soccer from their father.

Gracie Hunt also inherited an affinity for pageantry from her mother, Tavia Hunt, who’s a former Miss Missouri Teen USA and Miss Kansas USA. 

Knobel Hunt is currently working at JPMorgan Chase, but in college, he played on the soccer team. Meanwhile, Ava Hunt, the youngest, is more free-spirited with her love for horses, adventures, books, and philanthropy.
