Chariah Gordon was “crying my eyes out” after boyfriend Mecole Hardman Jr. sealed the Chiefs’ Super Bowl 2024 win Sunday in Las Vegas.

In an emotional post shared on her Instagram Stories, a tearful Gordon can be seen walking through what appeared to be Allegiant Stadium, where wide receiver Hardman hauled in a 3-yard pass from quarterback Patrick Mahomes to clinch a 25-22 victory over the 49ers in overtime.

“I’m literally crying my eyes out, God is so good,” she said in the video.

It was a storybook ending for Hardman, who began the season as a member of the Jets before being traded in October back to Kansas City, where he previously won two Super Bowls in 2020 and 2023.

Mahomes, who helped lead the Chiefs to back-to-back championships, said postgame that Hardman, 25, didn’t realize the game was over upon making the catch.

“Can I tell you a quick funny story?” Mahomes said. “I threw a touchdown to this dude to end the game and he had no idea. I said, ‘Dude, we just won the Super Bowl. He had no idea. He didn’t even celebrate at the beginning.”

Hardman then recalled, “I caught the ball and I blacked out. I’m not going to lie. I saw Pat running toward me and I was like, ‘Oh, we just won.’ After that, the rest is history.” 

The 25-year-old wideout had three receptions for 57 yards and the game-winning touchdown.

Gordon, who has been dating Hardman since at least September 2021, according to People, later gushed over the Super Bowl hero in an Instagram tribute.

“Watching you get EVERYTHING you deserve! 3x SB Champ!!!!!!!! Congratulations baby!” exclaimed Gordon, a beauty entrepreneur.
