The NFL WAG life isn't what it appears to be on social media.

Diana Wong, the wife of Cleveland Browns punter Corey Bojorquez, opened up in a TikTok video shared on Tuesday, March 11 about the biggest challenges of being married to a professional football player that isn't widely spoken about online.

"Most girlies want to be WAGs until you realize you're alone every single weekend with the kids for 4.5 months straight. And football quite literally consumes their physical and mental capacity in its entirety during that time," she wrote over a photo of her and Bojorquez on the sidelines.

Wong and Wong have been married since 2021. Together, they share two kids: daughters Elliana Jireh and Stevie Parker-Ruth.

"You never know what state or city you'll be moving to next or and you almost never have family where you end up moving to so you never have a 'village.' Oh let's not forget we spend holidays alone too because they have a game," Wong's post continued.

Bojorquez has been with the Browns since 2022. He was signed with the New England Patriots as an undrafted free agent in 2018 and played for the Buffalo Bills, Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packers in the years that followed.

Despite the obstacles they face amid their demanding schedules, the couple pushes through the difficulties and finds a balance between their professional and personal life, which Wong has also shared on her TikTok.

"Grateful for this life," she captioned a TikTok roundup that chronicled their family's major life milestones throughout Bojorquez's professional football career.

"Hubby playing for the Rams, newly married," Wong wrote over a photo of the couple posing on the field during the 2021 NFL season.

"Hubby playing on the Packers and gets traded to Cleveland Browns, expecting our first baby girl," she wrote over a different image for the 2022 NFL season, featuring the smiling pair holding a sonogram of their little one.

"Second year on the Cleveland Brown, enjoying life as a family of 3," Wong titled an image that represented the 2023 NFL season, featuring a photo of the couple with their baby girl at Disney World.

"Third year and still with the Cleveland Brown, now expecting baby girl #2," the then-expecting mom wrote on TikTok to sum up the 2024 NFL season, posing alongside her husband and daughter while cradling her baby bump.

Wong isn't the first WAG to open up about the little-talked-about challenges of NFL relationships. Recently, Alyssa Takitaki — who's married to Sione Takitaki — got candid about the hardships of the free agency system.

Takitaki described her family as being "essentially homeless" as her husband awaits his next job after being released by the New England Patriots in February this year.

"The NFL free agency is crazy," she began in the clip posted on Monday, March 10. "I don't know where I'm going to live. I don't know where I'm going to live! We're essentially homeless... for now."

Sione was signed as an unrestricted free agent by the New England Patriots from the Cleveland Browns, where he spent the first five years of his pro football career. The Pats released the veteran linebacker on Feb. 19.

In addition, Bryce Watts Hansen — wife of former professional football free agent Chad Hansen — debunked in a TikTok that all NFL WAGs are millionaires, breaking down the harsh realities of their family's finances.

"He was on 8 different NFL teams," Bryce said in the video, explaining, "That means 8 different contracts are being signed and broken... Six different states, eight different teams."
