Who is A.J. Brown's wife? Everything you need to know about Kelsey Riley as they tied the knot in Laguna Beach

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown added another major milestone to a memorable year over the weekend after marrying longtime partner Kelsey Riley in a private California ceremony. According to TMZ Sports, the couple tied the knot on May 16 at Montage Laguna Beach, surrounded by family, teammates and close friends. The wedding came nearly a year after Brown’s headline-grabbing proposal in Philadelphia and months after helping the Eagles capture another Super Bowl title. The celebration reflected the quieter side of one of the NFL’s biggest stars, with family moments and personal touches shaping the evening.Kelsey Riley has largely stayed away from the spotlight despite being in a relationship with one of the NFL’s most recognizable receivers. Born in August 1997 and raised in Belle Chasse, Louisiana, Riley built her own athletic background long before becoming known publicly alongside Brown.She played multiple sports growing up and later starred as a softball outfielder at Texas Southern University. Riley earned First Team All-Conference honors in 2017 and graduated in 2019. During her college years, she was also a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha and attended the same university as rapper Megan Thee Stallion.Away from sports, Riley pursued a career in healthcare. Her professional background includes work as a patient access representative at St. Luke’s Medical Center in Houston, along with previous experience in hospitality and patient care coordination. She was also accepted into nursing school in 2021, a step that highlighted her long-term commitment to the medical field.Brown has always been selective about discussing his private life publicly, but he has occasionally opened up about the people closest to him. During a 2023 interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer, Brown said, “I know where all my blessings come from. And that’s the way I remain humble. I got a cross on. That’s what’s important to me — and my daughter, my son, my girlfriend.”The exact beginning of Brown and Riley’s relationship remains unclear, though the couple first went public in February 2022 when Riley shared photos from a winter trip together. Later that year, they welcomed their son, Arthur Juan Brown Jr., on Sept. 29, 2022. Brown’s daughter, Jersee, from a previous relationship, also became part of their growing family dynamic.Their engagement followed in May 2025, shortly after the Eagles’ Super Bowl celebration. Brown proposed at the Four Seasons in Philadelphia with a pear-shaped diamond ring while John Legend performed “You and I” during the intimate moment. Several Eagles teammates attended the proposal, making it one of the more talked-about NFL off-field moments of the year.This weekend’s wedding carried the same personal feel. Guests reportedly wore shades of brown as part of the dress code, while violinists welcomed attendees before the ceremony began. Brown’s son also had one of the night’s most memorable entrances, drawing applause from guests as he walked in holding Skittles moments before the ceremony.
