Kansas City Chiefs chairman and CEO Clark Hunt and his model wife, Tavia Hunt, recently celebrated their 31st marriage anniversary, but the couple still feels like they are newlyweds.
Tavie recently took to her Instagram to share her special day, where she flaunted her long-lasting and deep relationship with her hubby Clark, writing,
Today, we’re celebrating 31 years of marriage! It’s hard to believe we’ve been doing this for over three decades— especially since we still feel like newlyweds…sometimes.
Further, in the lengthy caption, she talked about how she and her better half worked out despite several differences and the ups and downs during their journey together.
Through the years, we’ve built a life full of faith, family, and love, and let’s be honest—learned some hard and valuable lessons along the way (like when to hold your tongue or when it’s time to let the other person win a small argument). Some seasons have been easier and some more challenging than others, but we’ve always been on the same team
Ultimately, Tavia convinced all her viewers that marriage is worth pursuing as she believes it ‘offers a deep, support each other, and meaningful partnership to grow together and face life’s challenges as a team.’
Well, Tavia crossed paths with her then-future husband Clark after she joined Chief’s PR department as an intern while she was still a college student.
The two caught each other’s eyes at the Chiefs’ event. During an interview with KSHB, the celebrity wife said,
At the end of that event, this nice guy came up named Clark and started talking to me, and we had a great conversation and had so much in common, we learned. He asked me if I’d like to have dinner sometime, and the rest is history.

After that, the two obviously started seeing each other. Almost two years later, on October 23, 1993, Tavia Hunt and Clark Hunt walked down the aisle, turning their relationship into marriage, which is still going smoothly.
From their marriage, the couple welcomed three children: two daughters, Gracie and Ava Hunt, and a son, Knobel Hunt.
Gracie, the eldest, was born on March 29, 1999. She followed in her mother’s footsteps and entered the world of pageantry.
She was crowned Miss Texas Teen International in 2016 and 2018 and won the Miss Kansas USA title in 2021. Per her Instagram bio, she is currently in business.
Tavia and Clark’s youngest child, Ava, was born in 2005. She graduated from Covenant, a Christian private school, and joined SMU’s cheerleading team.
Similarly, Knobel, the duo’s only son, who arrived on July 15, 2002, is a student at Southern Methodist University. All of them are grown up and doing their best in their respective fields.
Tavia Hunt, Once A Miss Kansas USA, Is Now The Director At The Chiefs’ Women’s Organization
Though Tavia Hunt is widely recognized as the wife of the billionaire businessman and Kansas City Chiefs’ CEO, she is an accomplished individual on her own.
Her journey to accomplishment began when she was a teenager, entering beauty pageants. She first became Miss Missouri Teen USA and then crowned Miss Kansas USA.
Soon after, she started studying political science at the University of Missouri-Kansas City; Tavia Hunt diverted her path to sports, joining the American Football Team, Kansas City Chiefs, as an intern.
Since then, she has never turned her back on the team and is pretty proud of this. She now serves in the directorial position at the Chiefs Women’s Organization, which looks after the player’s wives and girlfriends.
I love being a leader of it and organizing events to familiarize our extended football family with Kansas City and plug them into serving in the community. It bonds us together on the field and off the field to gather to serve the community and enjoy fellowship together.

Tavia and her husband Clark strongly believe in giving back to the community. Hence, they are very involved in several charitable causes.
