Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes have officially opted out of Bravo’s upcoming reality series centered on the wives and girlfriends (WAGs) of Kansas City Chiefs players. While the highly anticipated show is still in its developmental stages, sources close to the pair have confirmed that neither Swift nor Mahomes will be part of the cast.
“Taylor and Brittany are not involved with the show at all and will not be filmed for it,” an insider exclusively told PEOPLE. “Taylor, in particular, is very protective of what little private life she has left.” Despite Swift’s relationship with Chiefs’ star tight end Travis Kelce, the 34-year-old singer remains committed to keeping her personal life as private as possible.
“She enjoys all the women she’s met through Travis but has no interest in being part of Bravo’s storyline,” the source added. This decision aligns with Swift’s ongoing efforts to balance her public persona with the aspects of her life she wishes to keep out of the spotlight.
It was previously reported that Bravo is working on a reality series featuring the lives of the women behind the Super Bowl-winning Kansas City Chiefs. While the project is still in development, with no official cast announced yet, potential participants include Chariah Gordon, fiancée of wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr., and Sheawna Weathersby, the longtime partner of defensive tackle Chris Jones.
“There’s still a lot to work out, including who will make the final cut and if there’s enough material to build a full series around. It’s very much a work in progress,” another insider revealed. The show will focus on the unique challenges these women face while being in relationships with professional athletes whose demanding schedules often leave little room for personal time.
Filming for the Bravo series reportedly began during the NFL offseason, with minor appearances from a few Chiefs players, but the spotlight remains firmly on the WAGs. “The action is centered on Chariah, Sheawna, and their close-knit group of friends. They understand the pressures and struggles of being in relationships with workaholic athletes,” the source said.
Mecole Hardman Jr. and Chariah Gordon have been together for over three years, and their engagement in June 2024 made headlines. The couple shares a son, Three, who was born on Super Bowl Sunday in 2023—an unforgettable moment as Hardman was preparing to play in the big game when Gordon went into labor. Meanwhile, Chris Jones and Sheawna Weathersby have kept much of their relationship under the radar since they started dating in 2015. The couple has two children together, Christopher “Deuce” (born in 2018) and Carson (born in 2022).
While Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes won’t be part of the Bravo reality series, they have still made headlines as part of the Chiefs’ inner circle. Swift was seen enjoying time with the WAGs during the Chiefs’ game against the Cincinnati Bengals on September 15. She shared Instagram selfies with Chariah Gordon and Sheawna Weathersby in front of a photo of Travis Kelce in his iconic No. 87 jersey. The trio looked relaxed and happy, with additional clips showing Swift hugging Gordon.
Brittany Mahomes, wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, is also expecting her third child with her husband. The couple is already parents to Sterling Skye, born in February 2021, and Patrick “Bronze” Lavon, born in November 2022. Though Brittany has been a prominent figure in the Chiefs’ fan community, her absence from the Bravo series is not surprising given her desire to focus on her growing family.
Despite the buzz surrounding the Bravo show, it appears Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes are choosing to stay on the sidelines of reality TV, prioritizing privacy and family over the cameras.
Fans will just have to enjoy seeing them at the occasional Chiefs game, sharing moments off-screen with the team’s WAGs.
