Sam Darnold’s fiancée shares inside look at couple’s Super Bowl 2026 victory lap

Sam Darnold and Fiancée Katie Hoofnagle Celebrate Seahawks Super Bowl Victory with Fun-Filled Disneyland Trip

Two days after the Seattle Seahawks claimed their second-ever Super Bowl title, quarterback Sam Darnold took his biggest supporter on a victory lap like no other – to Disneyland. Darnold's fiancée, Katie Hoofnagle, gave fans an exclusive look at the couple's post-game festivities on her Instagram Stories, showcasing the pair's fun and romantic celebration.

Following the Seahawks' 29-13 win over the Patriots, Hoofnagle joined Darnold on the field at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, where they shared a heartfelt postgame embrace. This was just one of many special moments Hoofnagle captured during her Instagram Stories, which also included images of the couple celebrating with friends and family.

The Seahawks' Super Bowl win marked a triumphant end to a long journey for Darnold, who spent years rebuilding his career as a backup quarterback in New York and Carolina. Last March, he signed a three-year, $100.5 million deal with Seattle and is now basking in the glory of his first Super Bowl victory.

Hoofnagle, who announced her engagement to Darnold ahead of the 2025 season, was beaming with pride as she documented their special day on Instagram. She even got a turn holding the iconic Lombardi Trophy after the Seahawks' relentless defense stifled the Patriots en route to the championship.

The couple's Disneyland trip was an unforgettable experience for fans and friends alike. Darnold posed for photos in front of Sleeping Beauty's castle, while Hoofnagle rode the tea cups with Seahawks star Kenneth Walker III. The two even shared a romantic moment in front of the iconic attraction, capturing the hearts of their followers.

As they commemorated Sunday's win on social media, Darnold wrote "Go Hawks!!" – a fitting tribute to his team and the unforgettable victory lap he took with Hoofnagle. Hoofnagle responded with her own loving message: "I LOVE YOU AND THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS." It was clear that this Super Bowl win was not just about football, but about the love and support of Darnold's biggest fan – his fiancée, Katie Hoofnagle.

They're just happy for each other and that's what matters, right? 💖 Katie's been his rock throughout this season and it's amazing to see her gettin all the love after that sick win 🤩. And can we talk about how adorbs they look together in those Disney pics 😍? I'm not sayin Darnold's the next big thing (he's def got his skills tho 🏈), but he's got a good heart and Katie's the lucky one who gets to bask in that glow 💫. Disneyland is literally the best place for a celeb couple like this to celebrate, all fun and games no drama 😎.

😊 Sam Darnold is totally earning his rep as a sweetheart with this Disneyland date 🎠👫! I mean, who wouldn't want to celebrate their Super Bowl win in the Happiest Place on Earth? But seriously, it's adorable how Katie Hoofnagle documented their whole experience and shared it with everyone. She's such an amazing partner and the ultimate Seahawks superfan 💖. And can we talk about how cute Darnold is looking over there in front of Sleeping Beauty's castle? 😍 It's not just a team win, but a love story for the ages ❤️.
 
omg lol i cant believe sam darnold took katie hoofnagle on a disneyland trip 🎢🏆 after they won super bowl!!! she looks so happy 🤩 and the pics of them with kenneth walker iii are too cute 😍 darnold must be the luckiest quarterback ever 💪
 
🤩 finally got a chance to unwind after all that stress 🏈💨 Darnold deserves it, he's been grinding for years 💪 now it's time to enjoy the ride with his babe 😊 Disneyland sounds like the perfect way to celebrate, who wouldn't want to spend the day at the Happiest Place on Earth with their partner in crime? 😉 Hoofnagle is living her best life, and I'm shipping this couple hard 🚀
 
🏈❤️ I'm thinking what's more impressive Sam Darnold's arm skills on the field or how he managed to convince his gf Katie to go on a Disneyland trip after the Seahawks' Super Bowl win 🎠😂 It's clear she's the real MVP of the team, supporting him through all those years and now basking in the glory of their championship win 💕
 
OMG 🤩🎉 Sam Darnold and his babe Katie are totally goals rn! I mean, who wouldn't want to celebrate a Super Bowl win with an epic Disneyland trip?! 😍 The pics of them holding the Lombardi Trophy together? 💕 The tea cup ride with Kenneth Walker III? 🎠😂 And that romantic moment in front of Sleeping Beauty's castle? 😘 Aww, I'm totally shipping these two! They're proof that winning a Super Bowl is about more than just the game itself... it's about sharing the joy with the people you love 💗. Can't wait to see what their future holds together! 🤞
 
Disneyland? really? 🤔 I mean, don't get me wrong, it's great they're celebrating and all, but isn't that kinda... unnecessary? Can't they just have a chill dinner or something and enjoy each other's company without having to share every single detail on social media? And what's with the tea cup ride? 😂 is that really how you celebrate a Super Bowl win? I'm all for enjoying life and being romantic, but can't we focus on more meaningful things than just having fun in a theme park?
 
🤔 I think this is a perfect example of how politics and celebrity culture can intersect. Think about it - Sam Darnold just won the Super Bowl with his team, but what does that really say about our society? Are we truly celebrating athletic achievement or are we projecting our hopes and dreams onto our favorite athletes?

And let's not forget Katie Hoofnagle's Instagram posts - she's not just sharing a romantic vacation, she's also using her platform to promote the Seahawks' brand and her own relationship with Darnold. It's like she's campaigning for their future together, rather than just documenting their fun-filled day at Disneyland.

Meanwhile, this raises questions about celebrity endorsements and the influence of social media on our culture. Are we seeing a new form of 'sports politics', where athletes become de facto spokespeople for their teams and sponsors? And what does that mean for the way we engage with sports and celebrities?

It's all very fascinating, really. 🎉
 
omg i'm low-key jealous 🤣 i would LOVE to take my bf on a super fun trip like that after our school wins!!! maybe we can just go to disneyland and ride all the rides together 😂🎢 but for real tho, sam darnold is so lucky to have katie as his fiancée, she's literally the best 💕👫
 
🎉🏈 OMG I'm so happy for Sam Darnold & Katie Hoofnagle!!! They deserve it after all that hard work! 🤩 The way they celebrated at Disneyland was so adorable, especially the part where Katie rode tea cups with Kenneth Walker III 😂👏. It's clear that their love is just as strong as Darnold's arm 💕. I'm loving the romantic moments they shared too - it's not every day you see a QB's fiancée holding the Lombardi Trophy 🏆💁‍♀️. Can we talk about how lucky Sam is to have such an amazing partner? 👀
 
OMG u guys! 🤩 I'm totally obsessed w/ Sam Darnold & Katie Hoofnagle rn! 💕 They're literally the cutest couple ever! 👫 Their Disneyland trip was EVERYTHING 💖 I need to know more about Katie, btw - she's been supporting Sam thru thick & thin and now she gets to bask in his Super Bowl glory 🏆 She even got to hold that iconic Lombardi Trophy - girl, you're the real MVP! 💁‍♀️ I'm loving their romance vibes 💘 Can we get a wedding announcement soon? 🤷‍♀️ #SeahawksNation #SuperBowlWinners #DisneylandFun #SamAndKatieCute
 
Ugh, Disney is still being super crampy 🎢👎 They're making kids pay $15 for a churro... meanwhile, the world is still dealing with climate change and rising sea levels 🌊😩 And btw, did you see the latest report on how many billionaires are getting richer while millions struggle to afford basic needs? 💸😷 At least Sam Darnold and his fiancée are having fun at Disneyland... not that I'm jealous or anything 😒
