Ann Michael Maye lived up to her ‘Queen in the North’ title on Sunday as she continued to endear herself to the New England Patriots faithful.
Ann Michael, the wife of Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, has captured hearts in New England in recent months thanks to her heartwarming baking series.
Her viral ‘Bakemas’ TikTok videos thrust her into the spotlight before Christmas and the 22-year-old continued her rise to fame at the weekend when she supported her husband in the AFC Championship game.
Ann Michael, who married the signal caller last year, was at Empower Field at Mile High on Sunday to cheer on the Patriots in their blockbuster showdown against the Denver Broncos for a spot in the Super Bowl.
And the University of North Carolina graduate did so in style, earning praise for her chic gameday outfit in Denver.
Ann Michael dressed to impress in a custom bomber jacket made from patches of her husband’s New England jersey, an illustrated Patriots image and a team hoodie.

She paired the on-trend jacket, which was custom-made by A/Asunsolo, with red tracksuit style pants with a white stripe down the sides, a white fluffy beanie and sunglasses.
She matched with fellow Patriots WAG Parker Henry, the wife of tight end Hunter Henry, who wore a similar jacket from A/Asunsolo made from her husband’s jersey.
Fans went wild for the eye-catching outerwear as one social media user even hailed it the ‘best fit of all-time’.
‘Wow that is so cute,’ gushed another as a third wrote, ‘That’s amazing,’ alongside multiple fire emojis.
‘That s*** goes HARD,’ added another, while one user claimed that it was an ‘AFC Championship Level Fit!!’
Ann Michael may only be relatively new on the NFL scene, but she has rocketed to stardom this season thanks to her newfound social media fame.
‘Bakemas’ saw the 22-year-old share videos on TikTok of her whipping up a treat in the kitchen everyday throughout December to ring in the Christmas festivities.
The sweet series quickly captured hearts across the north east and beyond, making her into a social media celebrity.

Her delicacies even caught the attention of Barstool Sports chief and notorious Patriots fan Dave Portnoy, who teamed up with the UNC graduate to film one of his famous pizza review episodes.
The series has even catapulted her beyond social media notoriety with Bakemas set to be hitting televisions across Boston. Maye and NBC 10 Boston/NBC Sports Boston are teaming up for a baking show, titled ‘Beyond Bakemas with Ann Michael Maye,’ with the first episode airing on January 18.
Outside of the kitchen, Maye, who met her husband as children becoming middle school sweethearts, graduated from UNC in May 2025 with a degree in business administration.
Meanwhile, her husband looked to lead the Patriots to their first Super Bowl berth since 2019.
New England, under first-year coach Mike Vrabel, finished the regular season at 14-3 and won the AFC East. The team secured the No. 2 seed in the playoffs – right behind top-seed Denver.
However, the Broncos are without starting quarterback Bo Nix, who suffered an ankle fracture during last weekend’s dramatic, overtime win over the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round.
Instead, backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham was the one going up against Maye, making his first start of the season as he replaced the injured Nix.
