Nadia McManus is renowned for being the wife of American football sensation Brandon McManus. As Nadia’s prominence comes from her marriage with the NFL star, her professional and personal achievements often get overshadowed.
Without further ado, let’s learn about the person behind the clout and her life with her football star hubby.
Brandon McManus’ Wife, Nadia McManus, Is Older Than Him
Nadia, born as Nadia Isabella Spencer on December 18, 1990, is 33 years old as of 2024, while the football star, born on July 25, 1991, is 32, making her seven months older.

Nadia McManus Is A Pilates Instructor
The NFL star’s wife, Nadia is a Pilates Instructor at Pristine Pilates LLC. Her current profession is different from what she previously did. However, it is necessary to note that she may not be involved with the company anymore as their website is not functional.
With a Bachelor’s Degree in Kinesiology, she formerly worked as a dental assistant at Willow Creek Dental. Similarly, she was also a technician in Philadelphia.
Alongside that, McManus also speaks Spanglish, which is Spanish with words borrowed from English.
Nadia Became Mrs. McManus In 2016
After dating for a long time, the couple took the ultimate step in their relationship on March 5, 2016. For those of you who do not know, 2016 was a great year for Brandon as he played a pivotal role in the Denver Broncos‘ Super Bowl win.
Besides, it was a destination wedding in the Dominican Republic. The husband-wife duo closely coordinated for the ceremony. While Nadia took care of the planning and general stuff, the kicker looked after travel reservations and logistics.
The sweethearts traveled to the Dominican Republic a week before the ceremony. The guests were hosted on a party cruise.
Brandon Always Brings Smile To Her Lips
Brandon and Nadia dated for a while before tying the knot. So, they are undoubtedly a reason for each other’s happiness and have been for a while. Overwhelmed with emotions, Mrs. Brandon was about to cry while walking down the aisle. Talking about that, she said,
The first few steps into the aisle I was still on the brink of tears I couldn’t even look up. When I finally did, I made eye contact with Brandon and my face lit up with a smile. I won’t forget that
It has always been like that since. The football star is still Nadia’s reason for smiling.
Brandon’s “Creepiness” Paved The Way For Their Romance
The lovebirds went to Temple University, where they first laid eyes on one another in around 2010. It would not really be an exaggeration to say it was love at first sight, at least for Brandon. He looked up his future wife on Facebook after “creepily” scanning her college ID for her name in the cafeteria.
Besides, call it fate or luck. Brandon’s best friend was in a relationship with Nadia’s roommate, which paved the way for a lunch date. Although the celebrity spouse did not expect to like Brandon, she was glad to be wrong.
Nadia Was Proposed On A Double Date
After dating for a while, the pair were ready to take it to the next step. Prior to reporting to the Broncos’ training camp in 2015, Brandon invited his then-girlfriend on a double date at the Denver Botanic Gardens.
There, the athlete got down on his knee to pop the question. The double date companions were actually friends that McManus brought to record the moment.
The adorable duo got engaged on Brandon’s birthday on July 15, 2015. They had discussed getting engaged beforehand, and Mrs. McManus was quite proud when her man did everything she had wanted.
Nadia McManus Is A Supermom
Three years after exchanging marital vows, Nadia welcomed twins Caden and Luca on January 18, 2019. Her husband announced the news on Instagram some days later, mentioning how he was “looking forward to being their daddy.”
Likewise, the duo was graced with another boy, Oliver, on July 2, 2020. With just a year gap between them, the kids are growing up like friends. They are taken everywhere by their parents.
Besides, the kicker’s spouse is an exceptional mother, and he does not miss a chance to commend her motherhood. On Mrs. McManus’ 30th birthday, her hubby posted,
Being a mother is a thankless and tiresome job, plus you have to do it while dealing with me. Happy 30th Birthday!!!
Furthermore, on Mother’s Day in 2022, he again posted pictures of Nadia dressed up as Supergirl and wished her, calling her a SuperMom. Additionally, Nadia is also a dog momma. They had two dogs whom they loved immensely. Unfortunately, one of them, CJ, diagnosed with Acute Lymphoid Leukemia, passed away after it progressed to brain cancer in September 2023.
Nadia Is A Devoted Wife As Well
The footballer is very lucky to have Nadia by his side. Their relationship began before McManus earned a name for himself. She has been by his side through thick and thin.
Similarly, despite having three kids to take care of, Nadia is always present on the game days to cheer for her husband from the stands. Her dedication has been recognized by her hubby, who calls her the “world” of their family.
Moreover, through the Brandon McManus Kick-Star Grant, Nadia, with her hubby, funded eight programs at NPSD to support the learning of students of all ages.
Furthermore, Mrs. McManus presently lives in Denver and Florida. They permanently live in Denver, but Florida is also their home, as McManus plays for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
