Brittany Mahomes—who is married to Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes—shared insight into Taylor Swift’s electric touch on Chiefs Kingdom in an E! News exclusive interview.
Watch: Brittany & Patrick Mahomes Say Their Kids Are “Big Taylor Swift Fans”
It’s nice to have a friend in Taylor Swift—just ask Brittany Mahomes.
After all, the former soccer player, who is married to Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, witnessed first-hand how the “Karma” singer changed the end game when she started dating tight end Travis Kelce. Not only did Chiefs Kingdom gain a new cheer captain, but Taylor’s many appearances at NFL games introduced a new generation of fans to football.
“I love that it’s getting young girls into football, so that they can watch it with their dads,” Brittany exclusively told E! News’ Francesca Amiker during a joint interview with her husband at the Chiefs’ 2024 Super Bowl ring ceremony June 13. “I feel like most dads out there love it when their daughters are like, ‘I wanna watch football!'”
She added, “It got a bunch of beautiful little girls out there, and a lot of new fans that we love and adore.”

And it seems Taylor’s impact is bigger than the whole sky. As Patrick noted, game days hit different for his and Brittany’s kids Sterling, 3, and Bronze, 19 months, now that the Grammy winner is rooting the team on from the bleachers.
“We’re all big football fans in the Mahomes household,” the athlete shared, “and big Taylor Swift fans as well.”
This was not the first time the Mahomes sang Taylor’s praises. Last year, Patrick gushed that Travis is “lucky enough to be with a great girl and a great woman.”
“It’s been cool to interact with her because she’s top tier of her profession—and how she drives and she becomes that,” Patrick said during a December appearance on CBS Mornings. “I’m glad that she’s the person that she is and that’s why I think her and Travis match so well.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s love story began in July 2023, when the singer’s Eras Tour made a stop at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.
As a huge Swiftie, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end caught the show with hopes of giving Taylor a friendship bracelet with his number on it. However, he failed to complete the pass due to her pre-show rituals.
“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Travis shared on the July 26 episode of his New Heights podcast. “So, I was a little butt-hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”
Summer 2023: This Is Him Trying
After publicly recounting his fumble—a move Taylor would later describe as “metal as hell”—Travis decided to shoot his shot and invite the Grammy winner to watch the Chiefs play at Arrowhead Stadium.
“I threw it out there, I threw the ball in her court,” he shared on The Pat McAfee Show. “I told her, you know, ‘I’ve seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead and see which one’s a little more lit.’ So, we’ll see what happens in the near future.”
August 2023: Enchanted to Meet You
Travis was rocking a mustache—which he debuted in August during training camp—when he was first introduced to Taylor.
As he later noted of the era, “That ‘stache and the 87 jersey was pretty iconic there for a little bit, and I had it when I met Taylor for the first time.”

September 2023: Cheer Captain
Accepting Travis’ invite, Taylor joined the athlete’s mom Donna Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium to watch him and the Chiefs take on the Chicago Bears. After the game, Taylor and Travis were seen packing PDA at a local bar.
Though folklore had it that it was the couple’s first in-person meeting, the “Karma” singer later clarified the two had spent a “significant amount of time” getting to know each other beforehand.
As Taylor noted, “We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”
