Campbell’s rise to social media fame began when she started intermittently making her Instagram account public, initially to highlight charities and local brands. However, after a viral post featuring a pre-game ritual with her husband, her account gained widespread attention.
The post, which showcased the couple’s two-kiss tradition before each game, amassed over 1.7 million views and 33,000 likes. Campbell’s followers have since swarmed to her comment section, eager for more details about her life and family.
Campbell’s authenticity and willingness to share behind-the-scenes moments have endeared her to Detroit fans and beyond. Her posts often feature her husband, humanizing the gritty coach, and their family, including their teacup Yorkie, Thelma.
While Campbell appreciates the “fun” social media has brought, her goal remains to promote charities and businesses in Detroit, a city she loves and calls home. As the Lions enter the playoffs, Campbell beams with pride, feeling like life is coming full circle.
Her husband, Dan Campbell, has led the Lions to a 15-2 regular season record, making them the winningest regular-season team in franchise history. Campbell’s success has brought joy to the city, and Holly’s social media presence has given fans a glimpse into the life of the team’s first family.
