Olivia Culpo couldn't be more proud of her fiancé, Christian McCaffrey, as he prepares for his first Super Bowl.

"You deserve it all Christian ?? I love you so so much," Culpo, 31, captioned an Instagram video after the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Detroit Lions 34-31 in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday, January 28.

The clip showed Culpo and McCaffrey, 27, hugging on the field and chest-bumping in a sweet postgame moment. The running back wore an NFC Championship hat and T-shirt while Culpo donned a black jacket with McCaffrey's last name and jersey number on the back.

Culpo wasn't the only significant other to celebrate the big 49ers win on Sunday. Kristin Juszczyk and her husband, 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk, shared a kiss in the locker room after the game. (Kristin has been getting attention this season for her custom-made NFL gear, recently designing Kansas City Chiefs jackets for Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes.)

The 49ers will face off against the Chiefs on Sunday, February 11, in a rematch of the 2020 Super Bowl, which saw the Chiefs taking home the Lombardi Trophy after a 31-20 victory. (The 49ers last won the Super Bowl in 1995.)
