Brandt was born on Oct. 26, 1999, and grew up with three siblings- Kaylyn, Isaiah, and Morgan. Her parents are Kevin and Amy Brandt.

Purdy and Brandt made their relationship official in November 2022. Although they had been linked before, the official announcement was made in November. Brandt is a native of Sumner, Iowa. She completed her high school education at Sumner-Fredericksburg High School. Then, she moved to Iowa State University to pursue her bachelor’s degree. And that’s where she met Purdy.

She transferred to the University of Northern Iowa in 2021, but they kept in touch. She continued to stay by his side during tough times. When he was dubbed as ‘Mr. Irrelevant’ because he was the last pick of the 2022 NFL draft, Brandt stood as his biggest cheerleader. In fact, he even went on to prove everyone wrong. He got the opportunity to do so after starting quarterbacks, Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo, both suffered injuries. Plus, he defeated Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the start of his career.

Brandt enthusiastically supports Brock Purdy during crucial matches. For example, during a recent game against the Lions, she was photographed hugging her boyfriend. Additionally, she showed her pride for Purdy during the NFC championship by sharing his post and adding the caption “Proud, Proud, Proud.”

It’s interesting to note that Brandt, like her boyfriend, was also a talented athlete. Her skills were so impressive that she even tried for the USA Women’s Volleyball National team. She went on to play with the Cyclones for three seasons. This included a trip to South America to compete against international teams. Earlier, Brandt had also contended in track and field and competed in a club volleyball team. In 2022, Brandt wrapped up her collegiate volleyball career.
