Brock Purdy's wife Jenna shares emotional unseen pregnancy photos after keeping baby news away from spotlight
Brock Purdy's whirlwind year just got even sweeter. At the end of July, the San Francisco 49ers quarterback and his wife, Jenna Purdy, announced the arrival of their first child - a daughter named Millie Joleen Purdy.
'Life just became a whole lot sweeter,' they wrote. The couple had kept Jenna's pregnancy a closely guarded secret, surprising fans and friends alike with the joyful news.
For Brock Purdy, A season of personal and professional triumphs
For Brock Purdy, the timing couldn't be more special. With the NFL season on the horizon, the 25-year-old had an extra supporter in the stands - baby Millie made her training camp debut, sharing an adorable moment with her father on the field.
This has already been a landmark offseason for the young quarterback.
In May, Purdy signed a five-year, $265 million contract extension - a staggering leap for the player once dubbed 'Mr. Irrelevant' as the last pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. That deal not only secured his place in San Francisco's future but also allowed the couple to purchase a new offseason home in Nashville, Tennessee, close to Purdy's close friend and teammate, George Kittle.
Now, Jenna Purdy has shared some beautiful memory from their pregnancy period, giving a sweet caption," Our little secret🤍"
The love story began at Iowa State University, where Purdy starred on the football field and Jenna - then Jenna Brandt - shined as a setter on the volleyball team.

What to know about Jenna Purdy?
Jenna, born in Sumner, Iowa, on October 26, 1999, grew up in a close-knit family with three siblings. A natural athlete, she captained her high school volleyball team twice, competed in track and field, and played club volleyball before committing to Iowa State.
Her support for Purdy has been unwavering - from the early days when he was battling to prove himself, to his breakout moment when he led the 49ers to the 2024 Super Bowl. She stood proudly on the field after the NFC Championship win, captioning her celebration with Purdy, 'The BEST feeling. God is good - all the time.'
Though the Niners fell to the Kansas City Chiefs in a heart-pounding overtime finale, Jenna's presence at every milestone underscored her role as Purdy's biggest fan. Now, with baby Millie in the picture, fans can't help but wonder if the newest member of the Purdy family will be spotted in a tiny 49ers jersey at games this season.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is facing backlash for refusing to sign an autograph for a young fan(AP) The video was shared on X by Dov Kleiman, a NFL news aggregator. In the video, a person can be heard asking Joe to sign one, just for 'the kid'. However, the player refuses. 'You can see how sad the fan was,' Kleiman observed. Fans react to Joe Burrow's actions Several fans reacted to Burrow's refusal to sign the autograph, with some chiding the player and others taking his side. 'Joe Burrow pulled a David Simms (Tin Cup movie). Do I come to your office and ask you for your autograph?,' a person said, sharing the video. Another remarked, 'Bengals Star QB Joe Burrow has gone viral after refusing to sign an autograph for a kid at two in the morning!' Yet another fan said, 'That dude will remember that for life, you're the face of the franchise man act like it, with your friends or not, you pretty much have a responsibility to the youth.' However, others jumped to his defense, with one person stating 'I'm probably in the top 1% of Joe Burrow haters, but what do you mean 'awful'? Anyone asking for an autograph in 2025 means they're just going to sell it for some extra scratch. Not to mention it's 2 in the morning and he's not in the mood.' A fan seemed to agree with him, saying 'I wouldn't be signing anything at 2AM either'. Not the first time for Joe Burrow This is not the first autograph controversy to hit Burrow either.
