It’s the moment that seemed to cement Brittany Mahomes as Taylor Swift’s latest celebrity BFF.
The newest WAG in the ranks of the Kansas City Chiefs, Swift stepped out at Wisconsin’s Lambeau Field last December to support her tight end Travis Kelce in a stunning red coat.
Still looking for clues about the “Easter eggs” left behind by the pop superstar, eagle-eyed Swifties immediately pointed out that the jacket appeared to belong to Mahomes, wife of quarterback Patrick.
And it’s true, the ladies soon seemed inseparable, comfortably ensconced in stadium stands, drinking shots for the jumbotron and dancing together at debauched after-parties.
Swift even appears to have allowed Mahomes into her very select group of girlfriends when, in November, they were photographed at a party alongside Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid and Sophie Turner.
In February, Mahomes posed in barely-there bikinis for Sports Illustrated, telling the magazine of her shock at being chosen for the shoot. “Never in my wildest dreams,’ she said, in what many perceived as a gentle reference to one of Swift’s most famous songs.
But now insiders are questioning the strength of that friendship, with some suggesting Mahomes has been more eager than Swift to give the public a sense of closeness.

But now insiders are questioning the strength of that friendship, with some suggesting Mahomes was instead more eager than Swift to give the public a sense of closeness.
The first signs of trouble in buddy paradise came with Mahomes’ appearance in a commercial for Kim Kardashian’s underwear brand, Skims.
Posing alongside Patrick and their two children in cozy Christmas pajamas, Brittany shared the promotional photos on her personal Instagram last November, saying, “The holidays start with Skims.”
Of course, Swift is engaged in a years-long feud with Kardashian that shows no signs of cooling down. Just last week, Swift’s new album apparently contained a “dissident track” aimed at Kim.
Now, sources tell DailyMail.com that those close to Swift found it “super strange” that Mahomes did the campaign.
“It really showed how loyal she is to her friends. And Brittany chose money over friendship, which says a lot,” the source said.
As for the couple’s closeness, the source said Mahomes is “acting like Taylor’s best friend” because she “desperately needs to be famous” and wants to be seen as more than “some girl’s trophy wife.” NFL star.”
“She tried so hard to fit into Swift’s circle. She wanted to be relevant for so long and she finally found it,” said another source who suggested Mahomes’ “betrayal” with Skims was very revealing.
“She has too many red flags and people are starting to see through her fake and bitchy persona,” the source said. “She’s an opportunist who’s clearly not a girl’s girl.”

It’s understood that Swift is “too busy” to “see” Mahomes’ behavior for what it is, and that the two haven’t hung out together since the Super Bowl in February anyway.
Insiders also point to a series of cruel tweets about Swift, written by Mahomes many years ago.
In a 2012 post, Mahomes wrote: “Taylor Swift, I want to know when you’ll find something different to write about besides boys and relationships #timeforsomethingnew.” »
A source said Mahomes would undoubtedly attribute the tweets to the actions of a “stupid teenager” and insist that “she loves Taylor’s music now.” But apparently such excuses will not be enough.
“This just doesn’t sit well with Taylor’s friends,” the source said. “People started to see through the Breton bulls***. If Taylor wasn’t dating her husband’s teammate, there’s no doubt Brittany would still be talking shit.
At the time of publication, Mahomes had not responded to requests for comment but, certainly, a public falling out with Swift certainly wouldn’t be Mahomes’ first public misstep.
In February, she faced heavy criticism after appearing to continue post-Super Bowl celebrations in Kansas City after a terrifying shooting at the Chiefs victory parade left one person dead and more than 20 injured.
Mahomes was photographed smiling, enjoying food and drinks at a dive bar just hours after the attack, with many victims still in critical condition.
And then there is his perception of the treatment of staff.
In January, fans criticized Mahomes’ “high horse” attitude after a clip emerged showing her speaking dismissively to a stadium employee.
In the video, Mahomes is seen walking with her husband after a game when she turns to a staff member and abruptly asks, “Where do we go from here?” while rotating his finger in a circle.
The clip went viral, sparking a wave of gossip about the star’s past behavior.
Of particular note, TikToker Jessica O’Connor claimed that she previously worked at a hotel in Hollywood that Brittany visited in 2022 and did not tip the staff.
“My first interaction with her, she spent over $100. She was with her whole group – Patrick wasn’t there – but I think their bill was well over $100, maybe $130. Tip $0,” O’Connor said.

Others also claiming to have served Mahomes then piled on the pressure in the comments section, with one saying, “I can confirm!” I was a bottle server at a nightclub in Kansas City and that’s 100% my experience too.
Certainly, Mahomes enjoys a particularly luxurious lifestyle. Patrick earns $53 million a year, while she owns her own fitness business and has a major stake in a women’s soccer team, the Kanas City Current.
The Mahomes live in a sprawling $8 million estate in Kansas City, complete with an indoor basketball court, home gym, movie theater, swimming pool, field golf course and, of course, a 50 meter football pitch.
There’s also a $5.5 million Texas mansion for vacations and plenty of exotic international trips.
Speaking to Sports Illustrated for this interview in February, Mahomes admitted, “People are going to love you or hate you.”
No doubt she hopes to avoid too many of the latter.
