Being the youngest daughter of Kansas City Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt and the little sister of social media influencer Gracie Hunt certainly comes with its unique challenges. Ava Hunt, at 19, is forging her own path while living under the spotlight cast by her high-profile family. Despite the attention that naturally comes with being part of the Hunt family, Ava tends to keep a lower profile on social media compared to her older sister, Gracie, who has amassed a following of 572k on Instagram thanks to her glamorous fashion posts and influencer lifestyle.
Ava, who shares the same birthday as Gracie—March 29, though six years apart—opts for a more low-key approach to her online presence.
She currently has a modest 51.8k Instagram followers, but her posts are fewer and often centered around her life as a college student and cheerleader at Southern Methodist University (SMU), where she follows in the family tradition. Her father, Clark Hunt, as well as her older brother, Knobel Hunt, and sister, Gracie, all attended SMU.
While Gracie frequently captures attention with her eye-catching outfits and public appearances, Ava is focused on her college life, balancing her role as a cheerleader for the SMU Mustangs with the day-to-day experiences of a typical college student.

However, this weekend, Ava grabbed a bit of attention herself while cheering for SMU in their big football matchup against the No. 22 ranked Louisville Cardinals. Both teams entered the game with identical 4-1 records, making it a highly anticipated showdown.
Ahead of the game, Ava posted a playful selfie to her Instagram Stories, sharing a moment with one of her fellow SMU cheerleaders. The two were seen in a kissy-face pose, with Ava wearing a white summer dress—seemingly the same one featured in her main profile picture. While the post showcased her fun, carefree college side, it was a rare glimpse into Ava’s life compared to her more public-facing sister.
Though Ava’s Instagram presence may not be as curated or influencer-focused as Gracie’s, she still enjoys the perks of her family’s influence. Among her photos is one with none other than global pop icon Taylor Swift, who is currently dating Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce. The photo, a must-have for any young celebrity in Kansas City circles, sits alongside typical college cheerleading shots that remind her followers she’s still a college student—albeit one destined to inherit a historic NFL franchise.
Unlike Gracie, who has already established herself as a fashion designer and social media influencer, Ava seems content with staying more grounded, at least for now. As she continues her studies at SMU, time will tell if she follows a similar path to her sister or carves out her own space in the public eye.
But for the moment, Ava Hunt is balancing her life as the youngest member of the Hunt dynasty with the joys and responsibilities of being a college student, athlete, and future NFL heiress.
