CELEBRITY
It was the moment that seemed to cement Brittany Mahomes as Taylor Swift’s latest celeb bestie.
It was the moment that seemed to cement Brittany Mahomes as Taylor Swift’s latest celeb bestie.
The newest WAG in the Kansas City Chiefs’ ranks, Swift stepped out at Wisconsin’s Lambeau Field stadium last December to support her tight-end beau Travis Kelce wearing a striking red coat.
Ever on the hunt for ‘Easter eggs’ clues left by the pop superstar, eagle-eyed Swifties immediately pointed out that the jacket appeared to belong to Mahomes, wife of quarterback Patrick.
And true enough, the ladies soon seemed inseparable, cozied up in stadium stands, downing shots for the jumbotron and dancing together at debauched afterparties.
Swift even appeared to have allowed Mahomes into her highly select group of gal pals when, in November, they were pictured on a night out alongside Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid and Sophie Turner.
In February, Mahomes posed in barely-there bikinis for Sports Illustrated, telling the magazine of her shock at being chosen for the shoot. ‘Never in my wildest dreams,’ she said, in what many perceived to be a sweet reference to one of Swift’s most famous songs.
But now insiders are questioning the strength of that friendship, with some suggesting Mahomes has been rather more keen than Swift to present the public with an impression of closeness.
