Brittany Mahomes, wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, is reportedly reconsidering her public support for former President Donald Trump following his recent attack on her close friend, Taylor Swift. According to The Daily Mail, Brittany was “deeply bothered” by Trump’s harsh remarks, which came just days after Swift endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris.
On Sunday, Trump took to Truth Social to express his disdain for Swift, posting, “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” His outburst came in response to Swift’s political endorsement, a move that clearly rattled Brittany, who has a strong personal bond with the pop star. A source close to Mahomes told the Mail, “This deeply bothered Brittany because Taylor is like a sister to her, and she has done absolutely nothing wrong.” The insider added that the former president’s outburst “shook her to her core.”
While Brittany is reportedly reflecting on her past support for Trump, the source clarified that this doesn’t mean she has suddenly shifted her political views or is planning to endorse Kamala Harris. “It has just made her more aware of supporting [Trump] so publicly,” the source explained, indicating that Brittany may be more cautious about aligning herself with him in the future.
This isn’t the first time Brittany has found herself at the center of political controversy. Just last month, fans noticed that she had liked one of Trump’s Instagram posts, leading to a wave of criticism from followers. In response, Brittany quickly unliked the post and addressed the backlash in her Instagram Story, where she called out her “haters,” saying they had “deep-rooted issues [they] refuse to heal from childhood.”
The tension between Trump and Swift intensified shortly after Swift made her endorsement of Harris public. In a Fox News appearance the day following Swift’s announcement, Trump praised Brittany, calling her “a big MAGA fan.” His remarks, seemingly intended to court public favor, may have inadvertently put Brittany in a difficult spot, especially given her close relationship with Swift.
Brittany’s relationship with Swift has been widely documented, as the two have formed a strong bond, frequently seen together at various events. For Brittany, Trump’s attack on Swift felt personal, prompting her to rethink her public stance on the former president.
While Brittany may not have completely severed ties with Trump, the situation highlights the complexities of navigating public friendships and political endorsements, especially in the high-profile worlds of sports and entertainment.
It remains to be seen how Brittany will approach future political discussions, but for now, her loyalty to Swift appears to have caused her to question her previous support for Trump.
