Mandy Shanahan was born in Colorado in 1980. She attended Cherry Creek High School, where she first met her future husband. As per reports, Kyle and Mandy were childhood sweethearts but parted ways after joining different colleges.
Focusing on her career, Mandy completed her Bachelor’s degree from the University of Colorado, majoring in English Literature while Kyle moved to Austin, Texas. However, the two were reunited when Mandy wrote to him about her mother being diagnosed with stage four gallbladder cancer.
Kyle then became Mandy's pillar of strength during her mother's illness. Tragically, Mandy's mother passed away in 2002 but the horrible experience brought them closer together.
Kyle and Mandy eventually married in 2005 and the couple now has three children together. Their first child, Stella, was born in 2007. The following year, the couple welcomed a son named Carter. In 2012, Kyle and Mandy became parents for the third time when they welcomed their second daughter, Lexi Louise.
Mandy often credits her husband for getting her through tough times in life. She also often visits Levi's Stadium to support Kyle when the San Francisco 49ers are in action.
