The sweet 16-year-old daughter of “Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast member and recording artist Kandi Burruss teamed up with the NFL to debut some official new gear ahead of Super Bowl 53.

“I’ve never experienced an event like this,” she said while modeling the NFL Juniors Super Bowl LIII T-shirt at the NFL Shop, open for business this week in the Georgia World Congress Center. She also welcomed fans ahead of a concert by Jacob Sartorius.

Her mom wasn't able to attend due to her current reality show gig on "Celebrity Big Brother." Riley's having fun cheering her mom on and taking in the interactions (and some fireworks) between Kandi and other contenders.

“It’s fun seeing the dynamic of the house,” Riley said.

Like lots of folks in the run-up to Sunday’s game, she’s bummed the Atlanta Falcons aren’t in the hunt. But she hopes everyone heading here will have a blast anyway.

"Go eat at Old Lady Gang for sure!" she said, plugging the Castleberry Hill restaurant owned by Kandi Burruss and her husband, Todd Tucker. "Just have fun. It's a fun city."

Riley, who says she wants to hopes to attend New York University and study law, has been inspiring others (her mom most of all) with her dedication to wellness. Diet and exercise helped Riley lose more than 50 pounds.

“I still want to incorporate this whole fitness journey in my college life,” Riley said. Her advice to others includes “watching what you eat,” and making sure “you’re surrounded by people who are motivating you on your journey.”
