Olivia Culpo brings Collette to Christian McCaffrey’s first home game in person, as 49ers edge Cardinals

Olivia Culpo attended her husband Christian McCaffrey's San Francisco 49ers home game with their two-month-old daughter Collette, marking the first time the infant watched her father play in person. The 49ers beat the Arizona Cardinals 16-15 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

Collette wore a onesie styled after the 49ers uniform, featuring her dad's No. 23. Culpo, 33, matched the team spirit in a red leather bomber jacket over an off-white bodysuit and finished the look with a red headband. She explained the practical reasons for the outfit, noting she was breastfeeding and needed easy access, so she wore a bodysuit. She mentioned planning lighter colors for fall and winter and joked about returning to her usual all-black wardrobe. A series of posts on Culpo's Instagram Stories showed Collette wearing a button that read 'My first game' and a foam finger next to the 49ers logo.

During the game, McCaffrey was on the sidelines holding his daughter as he contributed to the offense. Culpo shared clips from the sideline on Instagram Stories, captioning 'Let’s go daddy, let’s go Niners' with a football emoji.

McCaffrey finished with 17 carries for 52 yards and 10 receptions for 88 yards as the 49ers relied on him to move the ball in a tight matchup.

The couple, who began dating in 2019, exchanged vows last year. McCaffrey told NFL Network in August that Culpo was doing the dirty work of new parenthood and that he was grateful for her help. The 49ers will host the Jacksonville Jaguars next week, with Culpo and Collette set to be in attendance again as the team returns home. Collette’s first game marks a notable milestone for Culpo as she balances motherhood with an NFL schedule.
