Any speculation of bad blood between Taylor Swift and her gameday bestie Brittany Mahomes was swiftly squashed Saturday – less than 24 hours after the Chiefs quarterback’s wife sparked online backlash.
Brittany, who has been married to Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes since 2022, sparked a liberal meltdown Friday when she liked a Donald Trump post on social media.
The pregnant mother-of-two hit back at her critics in a fiery response but many social media users feared what the controversy could mean for her fledgling friendship with Taylor.
The popstar, who formed a close bond with Brittany at boyfriend Travis Kelce‘s Chiefs games over the course of the last NFL season, has publicly expressed disdain for Trump and voted for his ex-rival Joe Biden in the past.
Fans questioned whether the political controversy could be enough to bring their newfound friendship crashing down on the eve of the new NFL season.

However, it appears their friendship is strong enough to withstand Brittany’s newfound reputation as the Mahomeses joined the Anti-Hero hitmaker and Kelce in Rhode Island.
With her European tour behind her and NFL season approaching, Taylor and Travis are making the most of their downtime with a much-needed romantic reunion – but only for a ‘fortnight’ – DailyMail.com can reveal.
The power couple have reunited for an end-of-summer getaway – this time seen today on the balcony of the singer’s epic Rhode Island mansion.
The $17million vacation home achieved celebrity status after it became the site of Taylor’s legendary star-studded Independence Day parties.
Taylor has returned to her iconic holiday house for the first time this summer – now with her beau in tow. And it looks like their friends and family – including Patrick – joined them.
Patrick and Brittany soaked up the sunshine ahead of the season – with the quarterback and tight end enduring a difficult pre-season with three straight losses.
Taylor and Travis were captured crowding around the Mahomeses’ youngest, Bronze, as his Super Bowl-winning dad cradled him on the balcony of the luxury holiday home.
Travis’s brother Jason and sister-in-law Kylie joined the all-star Chiefs line up with their children, as the latter continues to enjoy his first offseason after retirement, and ahead of his new TV role with Amazon Prime, starting next month.

Although Brittany wasn’t snapped alongside her husband and her friends, it is expected that she would have also joined in the party.
Eagle-eyed Instagram users caught the soon-to-be mother of three liking a Trump post mapping out 16 of his policies to his 26.3million followers; ranging from topics on immigration to the economy.
The like generated plenty of outrage amongst liberals on social media, and Brittany appeared to hit out at her critics in a fiery response.
‘I mean honestly, to be a hater as an adult you have to have some deep rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood,’ she wrote Friday night.
‘There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well,’ she added.
After Brittany’s like was unearthed, it stoked rumors that Swift – a known liberal who publicly accused Trump of ‘stoking white supremacy’ in 2020 – would ditch her fellow Chiefs WAG.
One wrote on X: ‘Well it looks like Brittany can forget posting up with Taylor Swift in the skyboxes from now on. Could seriously strain their tik tok relationship’.
Another posted: ‘This season is gonna be awkward in the stadium suites with Brittany and Taylor Swift.’

While one quipped: ‘Brittany Mahomes….Taylor Swift is never ever getting back together with you.’
However, it appears Brittany won’t be facing any bad Karma for her social media activity from her famous pal with the songstress seemingly able to shake it off.
Brittany isn’t the only high-profile NFL-affiliated personality to potentially endorse Trump, as the former President was spotted with two players on the Raiders on Friday.
Former NFL running back Herschel Walker, best remembered for his playing days on the Dallas Cowboys in the mid-to-late 1980’s, is also a Trump fan. Walker served as a co-chair on the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition under the Trump administration.
Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa were blasted in March for hanging out with Trump at UFC 299, as well.
Brittany, who’s come under fire among the NFL fandom community in the past for being outspoken, was praised for her like on Trump’s post by the former President’s supporters on X.
She was also bashed by Democrat-leaning balloters, however.
