Olivia Culpo is putting her future in-laws on the map — thanks to her TikTok account.
The model is engaged to San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey, and his parents — Lisa and Ed McCaffrey — have made a rare appearance on Olivia’s social media account, causing fans to gush over their sweet relationship.
“Find a mother in law who matches your post game energy,” Olivia captioned an October 2023 TikTok that showed her dancing with Lisa while celebrating a 49ers win.
Lisa also made a second appearance in a “Get Ready With Me” TikTok when the model was preparing for one of Christian’s games.
“Do you really like him for real though? … You swear?” Lisa asked. Olivia replied, “It’s the real thing. It’s the real deal.”

Lisa then wanted to know “why” Olivia wanted to marry her son. “I’d have to write you a book,” the model responded.
Christian, for his part, has shared various details about his life leading up to NFL fame — especially how his dad prepared him to become a professional football player at 8 years old.
“He had us doing dynamic warmups dude. No sodas, bedtime 7:30,” Christian shared on the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast in March 2023. “They would take our phone ‘til I left for high school, at a time. He’s going to hate me for saying all this, but it worked.”
He added, “Diet was always important. Sleep was always important. Now, we were kids, man. We could go over to the friends’ house, it wasn’t anything like that. But when it came to sports and to school, it was, ‘Hey if you want to be here, here are the things you need to do.’”
