No edge rusher in the NFL playoffs is playing the way Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson is. The former No. 2 pick out of Michigan already has 17 quarterback pressures through just two postseason games, and his reign of terror will continue against the Brock Purdy-led San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship.

The Lions might not be where they are — on the verge of their first Super Bowl appearance ever — if not for a talent like Hutchinson leading the way on defense. But the 23-year-old Hutchinson might not be where he is if not for his incredible support system.
At every game you'll find members of the "House of Hutch" like his parents, Chris and Melissa Hutchinson; his sisters, Mia and Aria Hutchinson; and his girlfriend, Alivia Callaghan, who already looks like part of the Hutchinson squad. So just who is the woman Hutchinson calls his boo?

The earliest Instagram post you'll find of Aidan and Alivia is on her account from August 2022.
"So happy to have you in my life(: happy birthday to the best," she wrote on the post, hard-launching their relationship to the world.
In April 2023, Aidan introduced Alivia to Lions fans with a photo dump accompanied with the caption, "Some of the best moments with this pretty gal I met last year."
According to her LinkedIn profile, Alivia studied at Grand Valley State University and more recently Michigan State University, where she is currently a senior in advertising management.
Despite attending the rival of Aidan's alma mater, it appears the two are able to put aside their differences and attend sporting events together. That's because she's one of his biggest fans.

Since going public, the couple has locked arms at events like the Crunchyroll Anime Awards in Tokyo, a Comerica Park concert in Detroit and more.
For 2023 Halloween, they dressed as Victor Van Dort and Emily from "Corpse Bride."
Alivia also looks more excited than anyone to be rooting Aidan on in the playoffs. But the job isn't done until the Lions win the Super Bowl. With names like Hutchinson, Dan Campbell and Jared Goff leading the way, this could be Detroit's year.
