Michael Pittman Jr.'s three-year deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers after his wife's premonition has turned the attention to Kianna Pittman, the woman who has been his biggest cheerleader.
Michael Pittman Jr. has been grabbing the headlines for securing a USD 59 million deal for three years with the Pittsburgh Steelers. After getting traded to the Steelers from the Indianapolis Colts, the 28-year-old wide receiver flooded social media with multiple posts, congratulating ex-teammate Alec Pierce on his Colts extension. However, it was one particular tweet that grabbed attention, where he mentioned that his wife, Kianna, wasn't shocked about his Steelers trade, as she allegedly had a premonition about it.
Pittman Jr.'s expensive three-year deal with the Steelers, together with his wife's "crazy" premonition, has turned the attention to Kianna Pittman, the woman who has been his biggest cheerleader behind the scenes. Take a look at how Michael and Kianna have built a beautiful family beyond the field.
The Indianapolis Colts reportedly traded Michael Pittman Jr. to the Pittsburgh Steelers shortly after re-signing wide receiver Alec Pierce to a four-year contract worth USD 116 million. The Steelers then signed Pittman Jr. to a three-year, USD 59 million deal. Previously, the wide receiver had been set to play the 2026 season on an expiring contract, but the new agreement now places him among the league’s highest-paid players.
Shortly after getting secured by the Steelers, the former Indianapolis Colts wide receiver revealed his wife’s crazy dream related to the team. The NFL star proudly wrote on his X handle:
"Crazy! My wife @KiannaPittman had a dream a month ago, I was wearing a Steelers jersey. God works in crazy ways! #SteelCity."
Kianna Pittman (Galli) is not just an NFL wife; she is also a social media influencer with a significant follower count. On Instagram, she currently has around 57K followers, and the page often features adorable family moments with Michael and their children. As a lifestyle influencer, Kianna's social media feed mainly focuses on travel, fashion, and lifestyle content. Besides Instagram, she is also quite popular on YouTube, where she and Michael have a successful lifestyle vlogs channel named Michael and Kianna, with over 437K subscribers.
Michael and Kianna have been inseparable since their high school days, and they later attended USC together. Their love story started when Michael surprised Kianna by sneaking into her room. He left a Build-a-Bear and a handwritten note in it asking her to be his girlfriend. Later, they named the bear 'April' to mark the month they first crossed paths and etch it in their memories.
When Michael began his college career at USC, they decided to move in together. During that period, Kianna reportedly held two jobs while studying and supporting Michael as he pursued his dream of playing in the NFL. They later tied the knot in a quiet ceremony at a courthouse in August 2020. Just three years later, they made it official with a heartfelt proposal in one of their YouTube vlogs.
Soon, Michael and Kianna hopped onto their parenthood journey and welcomed three kids. Their first child is a daughter, Mila Pittman, who was born in May 2021. After Mila, they welcomed two more kids, both sons, one of whom is named Michael Pittman III. The name of their youngest is not known.
Her Steelers' premonition is not the first time that Kianna correctly guessed something about her husband. In December 2023, fans saw a heartfelt moment when Kianna recognised early, lingering signs of her husband's concussion symptoms before doctors did. While an independent neurologist initially cleared Michael to play after the NFL's concussion protocol, Kianna wasn't convinced. She knew something was off even though he didn't show many signs of abnormality. The WR shared:
“Actually, my wife was the one who had pointed out I hadn’t been acting just like normal, yet. I thought about it and was like, ‘You know what? You’re right.’ It just wasn’t the time. But I’m feeling a lot better this week.’’
It led to his quick medical evaluation and earned her praise. These heartfelt anecdotes have made Kianna a fan favourite NFL wife over the years. And now, with her recent premonition that turned out to be remarkably correct, Kianna has earned her name as a much-loved WAG (wife and girlfriend) of a star NFL player.
