As the wife of a football superstar well on track to becoming the greatest quarterback of all time, Brittany Mahomes should really be in national-treasure territory by now. Or at least on the cusp of it.
Yet as Patrick eyes an unprecedented three-peat with the Kansas City Chiefs this season, a victory which would thrust him further into the GOAT conversation right alongside Tom Brady, his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥hood sweetheart finds herself batting away the critics once again.
Brittany, who married Chiefs icon Patrick two years ago after first meeting in college, sparked political controversy last week when fans spotted she had liked one of Donald Trump‘s posts on Instagram mapping out his various policies.
Ahead of the Presidential election later this year, the like appeared to confirm which way she leans politically, leading to a fierce backlash from liberals and her best friend Taylor Swift‘s die-hard followers.
With opinion on her well and truly divided, Brittany’s public image received a much-needed boost last year when she emerged as Swift’s new bestie amid the pop sensation’s romance with Patrick’s teammate Travis Kelce.
The pair have formed a close bond over the past year as Taylor’s relationship with Travis continues to go from strength to strength, watching several Chiefs games with her fellow WAG while also enjoying a host of trips away and nights out together.
A source said that Brittany is only ‘acting like Taylor’s BFF’ because she ‘is desperate to be known’ and wants to be seen as more than ‘a trophy wife to an NFL star.’
But just over a week out from Kansas City’s opener against Baltimore, Brittany and Taylor were spotted on vacation in Rhode Island together to quell fears of any potential rift between them.
