Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes were the subjects of rife online speculation during the Chiefs’ home opener against the Ravens on Thursday night.
Both women were in attendance but were not seen together, having sat next to each other during most of the games the singer was in the building for last season. Swift was shown in a suite with Travis Kelce’s father and some other people, with Mahomes nowhere to be seen.
Brittany was definitely around. Her entrance was recorded, plus she posted photos from Arrowhead on her Instagram Story.
Many social media users reckon the NFL WAGS were not together because of Brittany’s public support for Donald Trump. Patrick Mahomes’ wife has been widely criticized for liking a post from the former United States President, while Swift is known to oppose his policies.
You can check some of the reactions to this below:
“It’s a catfight waiting to happen lol,” another said.
“Imagine choosing your friends based on personal politics,” someone commented.
“Britney definitely looking more desirable a person now. She stood up for her beliefs and they made her a outcast. Ridiculous,” a certain comment read.
“Very very rare Taylor W,” someone suggested.
Other fans didn’t think there was anything to the distance between Swift and Mahomes in spite of the optics.
“Can we just leave ALL of this out of sports coverage?” one suggested.
“People jumped all kinds of conclusions. Nobody knows unless one of them says something. Maybe they just have some different friends tonight,” someone else pointed out.
We don’t imagine Brittany’s political preferences would impact her friendship with Taylor. This is likely coincidental, and we expect that they will be celebrating together again during games soon enough.
