Kelly Stafford shares that her children were hospitalized before Matt Stafford’s playoff game against the LA Rams

Kelly Stafford, wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, documented her daughters’ hospitalization and subsequent recovery ahead of her husband’s Monday night playoff game against the Minnesota Vikings.

On Saturday, Kelly Stafford shared a photo of two of her four children in a hospital bed on her Instagram Story, E! News reported. The couple has four children together: seven-year-old twins Sawyer and Chandler, six-year-old Hunter and four-year-old Tyler.

“Last night was long,” she wrote on the now-removed photo. “Back in the beds and sleep, everyone except Hunter. It feels like she drank a Celsius.”

Kelly Stafford had posted a happier picture of her children walking with Matthew following the initial announcement, E! News reported where she wrote, “Earlier, they were all smiles as they accompanied dad on his work trip.”

The Rams traveled to Arizona for the NFL Wild Card game against the Vikings. Due to the ongoing wildfires in Southern California, the game was moved from SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California to State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

Kelly Stafford did not provide details about the hospitalization in her post, but recently mentioned that she and two of her daughters were sick during an episode of her podcast, “The Morning After with Kelly Stafford and Hank (Winchester).”

“I can’t think straight, I think I have the flu right now,” she said at the start of the episode, which was released last week. “Two of my daughters have the flu and I couldn’t move at the game yesterday.”

Reflecting on her condition during the Rams’ game against the Seattle Seahawks on Jan. 5, she added, “I passed out on a little bench in the suite. We had like all of our friends in town and I was a real downer. Body pain is serious.”

The Staffords have also evacuated their home due to the ongoing wildfires in Southern California, E! News reported.

Matthew Stafford said at a news conference Thursday that he hopes the Rams’ matchup against the Vikings will be a “great escape for people who have been through a lot of tough times.”

“We play for the people in this community, the people who support us,” he said. “And this week will be another example of that.”

Kelly Stafford shared an update about the family on Sunday, posing two of her girls at a Waffle House in Arizona on her Instagram Story. She wrote: “We found our happy place in AZ. I promise we’re happy, just still 🤕.”

Representatives for Kelly Stafford did not immediately respond to a request for comment from NBC News on Monday.
