Brittany Mahomes Sends a Pointed Message in Defense of Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes cheer after a Kansas City Chiefs touchdown during the second quarter against the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium on Dec. 17, 2023, in Foxborough, Mass.
Everyone seems to have an opinion about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's high-profile relationship. Some "Dads, Brads and Chads" are upset about the pop superstar's high-profile presence at Kansas City Chiefs games—and they're not afraid to share their opinions. In response to the ongoing hate directed at Swift, fellow Chiefs WAG Brittany Mahomes sent a pointed message via social media.
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' wife took to her Instagram story to defend her new BFF against the haters. "Let. Them. Know," Brittany wrote in text overlain on a quote from Charles Barkley in which the former NBA star called any Swift critic a "loser."
The quote came from a recent episode of the TV analyst's King Charles show on CNN, during which Barkley got real with Gayle King and Bob Costas about Swift haters. "If you’re screaming at Taylor Swift saying she ruined [football], you’re just a loser," Barkley declared. "You’re just a loser or a jack--. You’re either A or B. You’re one of the two."

In recent months, Swifties have praised Brittany for taking the "Cruel Summer" songstress under her wing as a fellow Chiefs WAG. The women often cheer on their NFL beaus together from a private suite at games. Brittany and Taylor were even caught doing a celebratory "secret handshake" at the Chiefs-Los Angeles Chargers game in October.
Additionally, Brittany has been photographed out with Swift and her gaggle of celebrity besties since the Swelce/Tayvis romance began.
Hopefully, Swift and Brittany's bond continues to grow well after the NFL season is over–because women supporting women is definitely something we can get behind!
