Taylor Swift’s latest crisis: Fans beg singer to avoid Travis Kelce’s first NFL game of the season after pop billionaire’s Kansas City Chiefs WAG bestie Brittany Mahomes is shouted out by Donald Trump for her support
When Taylor Swift went public with Travis Kelce at a Kansas City Chiefs game last year, she immediately cemented herself among the team’s loyal squad of WAGs.
And in the 12 months since debuting her romance with the American Football star, 34, the 14-time Grammy winner has formed a particularly close friendship with Britanny Mahomes – the wife of quarterback Patrick Mahomes, 28.
Throughout the season, Taylor was spotted at games cheering on her beau – often with Brittany by her side, usually in a matching outfit.
But Brittany, 29, who is currently pregnant with her third child, may be on the outs with Taylor, 34, after appearing to endorse Trump in the upcoming US election.
The question remains if the besties will appear side-by-side to cheer on the Kansas City Chiefs as they take on the Baltimore Ravens in the first game of the season tonight.
Taylor will likely want to make a show of support for her Tight End boyfriend after a seemingly fake contract was shared online dubbing their relationship a ‘showmance’.
But will billionaire popstar – who shies away from controversy – be distancing herself from Brittany, who was already controversial among NFL fans?
Having a blast! Brittany Mahomes, 28, shared a friendly laugh as she joined Taylor Swift, 33, and singer’s celebrity entourage at MetLife Stadium on Sunday to support the Kansas City Chiefs and star’s new love, Travis Kelce

The stars fans have urged her to stay away – with one taking to X, formerly Twitter to write: ‘Taylor if you hug Brittany Mahomes on national TV tomorrow I cannot defend you anymore!’
Another said: ‘F*** Brittany Mahomes and I hope Taylor drops her out of the friend circle’.
A third wrote: ‘I don’t want Taylor to be associated with someone who supports trump how is that a problem?’.
One joked: ‘Tree Paine, time to get to work,’ referring to Taylor’s publicist.
Taylor and Brittany quickly formed a friendship last year – with the pair posing for snaps together, heading for dinners at A-list joints and wearing matching clothes.
A source even told Us Weekly the pair ‘have a really genuine friendship and ‘a similar sense of humour’ and ‘are always cracking jokes and laughing.’
Even if things didn’t work out between Taylor and Travis, Taylor feels like her friendship with Brittany would continue no matter what,’ they added.
But politics may stand in the way of the pair. Taylor has previously endorsed Donald Trump’s rivals, while accusing him of ‘stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism,’, ‘feigning moral superiority’ and ‘threatening violence’.
But Brittany appears to be team Trump – with the former US President taking to Truth Social to thank the WAG for her support last night.
‘I want to thank beautiful Brittany Mahomes for so strongly defending me, and the fact that MAGA is the greatest and most powerful Political Movement in the History of our now Failing Country,’ he said.
Brittany all-but-confirmed her support for Donald Trump by recently liking posts on Instagram supporting the Republican Party.
