During a recent Chiefs game, Taylor Swift appeared to distance herself from Brittany Mahomes, wife of star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, following Brittany’s vocal support for Donald Trump. Unlike the previous season, where they were often seen together, the two enjoyed the 2024 NFL season kickoff separately as the Kansas City Chiefs faced the Baltimore Ravens.
Taylor Swift, a renowned recording artist, made a striking entrance at Arrowhead Stadium on September 5, donning a denim-on-denim outfit paired with red thigh-high boots to show support for her partner’s team. Surrounded by security, Swift arrived at her private suite for the NFL season opener, accompanied by Kelce’s dad, Ed. Notably, Brittany Mahomes was not seen nearby, marking a stark contrast from last season when the duo was frequently inseparable.
Brittany was present at the season opener, sharing moments on her Instagram stories from her suite. This separation was surprising, as the two had previously been seen together celebrating Chiefs victories and enjoying each other’s company. Outside the stadium, their friendship seemed strong, with Brittany often socializing with Swift and her friends.
The separation comes after Brittany Mahomes faced backlash for liking an Instagram post by former President Donald Trump, outlining his policy positions. This sparked online debates, with many suggesting Taylor Swift should distance herself from Brittany to avoid being seen as indirectly endorsing Trump. Fans speculated that this controversy led to Swift’s decision to maintain distance during the game.
Trump praised Brittany Mahomes, calling her “beautiful” and thanking her for defending him. He referenced the post where he discussed controversial issues like halting the “migrant invasion” and addressing the “migrant crime epidemic.” Despite Brittany removing her like from the post, the situation has continued to attract attention.
While Taylor Swift has not publicly endorsed any presidential candidate for the 2024 election, her past statements indicate strong opposition to Trump. In her documentary “Miss Americana,” she expressed a desire to be on the right side of history, having supported President Joe Biden in 2020.
