Just 24 games into his NFL career, Matthew Wright played for 4 teams since 2019. After connecting as a kicker on 40 of his 47 field goal attempts, Wright finally got another home in the San Francisco 49ers for a year.

Now, after just one game and a halt since last year, he will try to prove his worth in the league. And during his topsy-turvy time, he has one biggest supporter standing beside him–his wife–Kelsey Wright.

Who is Matthew Wright’s wife, Kelsey Wright?

“I’ll kick her through the uprights.” In July 2018, Matthew Wright used this metaphor about his then-girlfriend, Kelsey Elizabeth Dean, to express how he had successfully secured her in his life forever. Yes! This itself tells how close Matthew is to his now-wife. Kelsey Wright is an active social media user, who generally posts important updates of her life on X. For instance, once in April 2018, she made sure to update her fans about her last college exam, saying, “Took my last college exam ever today (with a cool & carefree emoji).”

However, not much is known about her, even where she went for her academics. But one thing everyone knows about her and even her social media profiles scream about it is her being the biggest supporter of her husband, Matthew Wright. This is evident from her Instagram account, where she mentioned herself as the wife of the athlete in her bio, as well as from her X account, where she keeps on posting Matthew’s plays and important updates about him. Besides that, she also supports Wright in doing Christmas charity work, just like they did together in 2018.

How long have Matthew Wright and his wife, Kelsey Wright, been together?

Matthew Wright and his wife, Kelsey Wright, are now lifelong partners! Before tying the knot, they had been together for many years. While the exact year or place of their first meeting isn’t available online, Matthew’s first picture with Kelsey on his Instagram in 2018 suggests they’ve been together since at least that year – meaning at least six years now.

The couple got engaged in 2021 and posted a picture with their two puppies, along with a caption: “The puppies approve.” And then taking their relationship to the next level, the two got married to each other on March 25, 2022.

But before being husband and wife, Matthew Wright and his wife, Kelsey Wright are best friends who have supported each other since their first meeting. Currently, they live together in Oakland.
