Thanks to Patrick Mahomes’ teammate Travis Kelce, Brittany Mahomes gained membership to Taylor Swift’s girl squad. When Swift’s relationship with Kelce got serious, it was inevitable that she and Brittany would meet, and soon, the two women were seated side-by-side at Kansas City Chiefs games. In November 2023, Swift made her first appearance on Brittany’s Instagram page in a group photo. The singer had her arm draped around Brittany, making it seem as though the two women were the best of friends.
The very next post Brittany shared was a paid promotion for SKIMS sleepwear. She, Patrick, and their two kids were pictured rocking matching buffalo plaid PJs from Kim Kardashian’s clothing brand.
Now, you might recall that nasty feud between Swift and Kimye over Kanye West’s song “Famous” — and that infamous snake tweet. In 2023, Swift spoke to Time about the fallout from Kardashian and Ye’s vendetta against her. “My career was taken away from me. … That took me down psychologically to a place I’ve never been before,” she said. So, some of Brittany’s fans saw her wearing SKIMS as a slap in the face to Swift. “This is a red flag,” read one reaction to her ad. “Fake friend alert,” another person warned Swift. But the collab didn’t cost Brittany her famous friend. A few weeks later, Brittany posted a photo on Instagram of her and Swift rocking similar Chiefs gear. She gave it the caption, “Twinning & Winning.”
