There seems to be no rift between Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes, despite rumors. Days after the two women were spotted sitting separately during the Kansas City Chiefs’ season opener at Arrowhead Stadium, a source told The Sun that there is “zero tension” between them. Speculation had swirled about possible political differences between Swift and Mahomes after Brittany, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, “liked” a social media post supporting Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
The insider clarified that any assumptions about discord were unfounded. “They are very good friends and were excited to attend the game, but they just had different plans, which happens sometimes,” the source explained. Brittany, who is currently pregnant and expecting her third child, is a family-oriented person, while Swift, who has been dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce for over a year, enjoys treating the game like a party. “They were in different vibes for the first game of the season,” the source added.
During the Chiefs’ 27-20 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, Swift was seen watching from a suite alongside Travis Kelce’s family, including his parents, Donna and Ed Kelce. Meanwhile, Brittany Mahomes was spotted on the sidelines before kickoff with her 3-year-old daughter, Sterling Skye, as she supported her husband, Patrick.
Despite sitting separately during the game, Swift and Brittany reportedly spent time together before and after the match while waiting for Patrick and Travis to join them. The two have become close in recent months, having attended several Chiefs games together last season as Swift and Kelce’s relationship grew. The Mahomes family also supported Swift during her Eras Tour, traveling to Europe to catch one of her international shows.
Brittany Mahomes recently found herself in the headlines for her public support of Donald Trump, having liked an Instagram post promoting his 2024 campaign platform. The post referenced several controversial issues, sparking some backlash online. In response, Mahomes defended herself and called out “haters” in a social media post. Trump even thanked her for her support shortly after.
Though Mahomes’ support for Trump contrasts with Swift’s known political stance—having supported President Joe Biden in the 2020 election—the two women reportedly maintain a close and respectful friendship. “They love and respect each other a lot,” the insider noted, adding that their decision to sit separately at the game was simply due to their different vibes and plans for the evening.
As the Chiefs pursue their goal of a Super Bowl three-peat, fans will likely see more of Swift and Mahomes at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs are set to host the Cincinnati Bengals next Sunday.
