Taylor Swift distances herself from Trump-supporting Brittany Mahomes, is it the end of their friendship?
During a recent Kansas City Chiefs game, Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes were spotted sitting separately. Following her outspoken endorsement of former President Donald Trump, Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, announced their separation. Though Swift and Mahomes have frequently been spotted together at games, rumors about their romance have been prompted by the change in seating arrangements, as per the reports of Yahoo entertainment.
The incident started when Brittany Mahomes liked a Trump Instagram post outlining his campaign platform, which included prohibitions on men participating in women’s sports and a reduction in federal funding for Critical Race Theory education in schools. Swift’s supporters swiftly criticized this decision, with some voicing their displeasure on social media. They questioned Mahomes’ ability to back Trump in light of his divisive record and ideas.
Mahomes responds to criticism
Mahomes responded to the criticism by making an Instagram post in which he implied that those who hate other people must be suffering from unresolved personal difficulties. She didn’t say to whom, but it was widely assumed that she was defending herself against the criticism she was receiving. Afterwards, Mahomes quit following Trump on Instagram and disapproved of the post.
Trump’s public praise
Despite the backlash, Trump publicly thanked Mahomes for her support. He expressed his appreciation on Truth Social, calling Mahomes “beautiful” and thanking her for defending him. This public acknowledgment added another layer to the ongoing drama between Mahomes and Swift.
Swift’s past criticisms of Trump
Taylor Swift has not endorsed any 2024 presidential candidates, but she has previously criticized Trump for his role in promoting white supremacy and racism. Recently, Trump posted AI-generated images of Swift endorsing him, which she did not publicly oppose. This lack of response did not help clarify her stance on the matter.
