The Kansas City Chiefs have further solidified their interior defensive line after re-signing Derrick Nnadi last March. The defensive tackle will go into free agency after the Super Bowl game. However, just like last year, will the Chiefs decide to keep him, as his reliable presence up front helps their defense.

Just as Nnadi assists the team in games, his girlfriend supports him in his career off the field. And fans are eager to know more about his personal life. So, let’s dig further into Derrick Nnadi’s girlfriend, her work, and her education.

Derrick Nnadi’s girlfriend is Nani. She keeps things low-key, but their relationship is still pretty obvious. They’ve been dating since 2021, and while she’s not super open about her life on social media when she does post, it’s all about her love for Derrick. Derrick’s dropped a couple of cute pics with her, and in 2022, he captioned one, “365 🤞🏾❤️,” which is probably his way of saying he’s got love for her all year long. Nani’s also super supportive, showing up at games to cheer for her man. You can just tell these two have that vibe—they’re all about each other. Even in the recent AFC game, she did a little special, which was amazing. But, I will get back to that later.

What does Nani do for a living?

Nani is a nurse. She’s been grinding hard to get there. She’s got a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and is a registered nurse (RN). She even shared how stoked she was to get her nursing job in May 2023 after a lot of hustle. But the journey wasn’t all smooth sailing. In one Insta post, Nani opened up about how tough it was prepping for her NCLEX exam. She had to push it back a few times, but she stayed focused, passed with 85 questions, and was hyped to share her win. She even took a step back from her usual “jet-setting” lifestyle to focus on her grind—talk about dedication!

When did Derrick and Nani meet?

Derrick Nnadi and Nani got together in 2021, and while the exact details of how they met are still under wraps, it’s clear they hit it off right away. Since then, Nani’s been there for Derrick through thick and thin. She’s been spotted at Chiefs’ games, cheering him on, and they’re always posting about how much they’re loving life together. Their bond is strong, and the couple’s been serving up major couple goals ever since.
