Kelly Stafford took an unfortunate trip to the hospital with her kids after traveling with her husband Matthew Stafford ahead of the Rams-Vikings playoff game.
“Last night was long,” Kelly, 35, wrote via Instagram Story on Saturday, January 11, alongside a photo of two of her young children asleep in a hospital bed. “Back in beds and sleeping, everyone except Hunter. Feels like she drank a Celsius.”
In another post, she shared a photo via Instagram Story of Matthew, 36, quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams, and their daughters. “Before that tho, they were all smiles getting to go with daddy on his work trip,” she wrote.
Last week, Kelly revealed she and two of her daughters had come down with a serious illness. “I can’t think straight,” Kelly said on the Tuesday, January 7, episode of her “Morning After” podcast. “I currently believe I have the flu. Two of my daughters have the flu.”

Kelly and Matthew share four daughters: twins Sawyer and Chandler, 7, Hunter, 6, and Tyler, 4. Kelly did not share why exactly the kids were taken to the hospital, or if they will be in attendance at the Rams vs. Vikings playoff game.
The family had traveled to watch Matthew practice ahead of the Rams’ playoff game against the Minnesota Vikings in Glendale, Arizona, scheduled for Monday, January 13. The Rams home playoff game was relocated from Los Angeles to Glendale due to the wildfires raging through southern California.
Kelly’s hospital trip came after she offered to rent charter buses for season ticket holders in Los Angeles to travel to Glendale for the game.
In a press conference held on Thursday, January 9, Matthew addressed the devastation caused by the wildfires and the impact the natural disaster has had on his community.

“It’s a tough thing to watch on the news, to be around, to see,” he told reporters. “Driving around seeing all that, it’s just really sad to see what’s going on. Obviously, a bunch of people [are] doing everything they possibly can to try and get things under control and get people back to normal as quickly as possible.”
Matthew continued, “Every time we suit up, we’re the Los Angeles Rams. We play for the people in this community. The people in this community support us. This week will be another example of that, obviously. Hopefully a great escape for people who have been going through a lot of tough times.”
The Rams-Vikings Wild Card playoff game will kick off from Glendale, Arizona’s State Farm Stadium on Monday, January 13 at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN.
