Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes were noticeably seated apart during the Kansas City Chiefs’ nail-biting 26-25 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, sparking some chatter about the state of their friendship.
While Swift cheered for Travis Kelce from one suite and Mahomes supported her husband, Patrick, from another, the two women—who had previously been seen together multiple times during the 2023 season—were not seen sitting side by side at this game.
Swift, frequently shown on camera, was in high spirits as the Chiefs edged out the Bengals, thanks to a 51-yard field goal by Harrison Butker. Meanwhile, Brittany Mahomes took to Instagram to document her family’s day at the game.
She shared snaps of herself with her children, Sterling and Bronze, in the suite, with her daughter wearing earmuffs during the pregame festivities. In one post, Mahomes mentioned that Sterling wasn’t a fan of the hot weather, leading to a quieter experience in their suite.
The fact that Swift and Mahomes weren’t seated together led to speculation about their relationship, particularly after the two were seen hugging at the U.S. Open just the week before. While they’ve been spotted together multiple times, their separate seating arrangements raised some eyebrows among fans who have been following their friendship.
Adding to the intrigue, Swift had recently voiced her support for Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential bid, while Mahomes appeared to lean more toward former President Donald Trump.
This potential political divide has only fueled further conversation online. Despite the buzz, Patrick Mahomes was quick to dismiss any rumors or drama. He praised his wife for her work in the community and emphasized the importance of staying focused on family and values, rather than letting political tensions or public scrutiny affect their lives.
“At the end of the day, it’s about me and my family and how we treat other people,” Patrick said, putting to rest any concerns about the couple’s approach to the pressures of public life and social media noise. As the Chiefs continue their season, the focus seems to remain on the game—and the family dynamics that come with being in the spotlight.
