Before she became a familiar face on NFL sidelines cheering on her Hall-of-Fame-bound husband, Brittany Mahomes was already an NFL enthusiast.
Growing up, she was surrounded by football, especially thanks to her father, who was a die-hard Green Bay Packers fan.
Brittany has been photographed in the Packers’ iconic green and gold colors long before her relationship with now-husband Patrick Mahomes even began.
From High School Sweethearts to Power Couple
Brittany and Patrick’s journey started back in 2012, when they were just high school students at Whitehouse High School in East Texas. At the time, Patrick was a sophomore, and Brittany was a junior.
They had been dating for almost two years when a snapshot of Brittany in front of her family’s TV and fireplace was taken in December 2013.
Little did they know that this young love would eventually blossom into one of the NFL’s most famous relationships.
Now, as parents of three, they’ve come a long way from their early days together, with a life that neither could have anticipated back then.
A Father’s Perspective
Brittany’s father, Scott Matthews, has witnessed the evolution of his daughter’s relationship with Patrick, and he’s experienced the challenge of seeing his daughter wear Kansas City Chiefs gear, especially when they played against his beloved Packers in 2023.
But despite the rivalry, it’s clear that Scott is supportive of his daughter’s life and her incredible journey with Patrick, now one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history.
Fame Beyond Football: Brittany’s Friendship with Taylor Swift
While Brittany’s identity was once solely tied to her husband’s success on the field, she has since built her own fame.
Her close friendship with pop sensation Taylor Swift has skyrocketed her visibility, drawing even more attention to her already public life.
This bond mirrors the camaraderie between Patrick and Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, who also plays in the NFL.
The four friends attended the 2024 US Open men’s final in New York City, celebrating the event in style with a lavish Mediterranean dinner following Jannik Sinner’s win over Taylor Fritz.
A Turbulent Friendship
However, not all of Brittany’s relationship with Taylor has been smooth sailing.
Toward the end of last year, political differences put a strain on their friendship.
While Taylor supported Kamala Harris for president, Brittany was a staunch supporter of Donald Trump.
Despite their contrasting views, the two have continued to maintain their connection, showing that their bond is more than just politics.
Celebrating Love and Milestones
This month, Brittany and Patrick marked a major milestone in their personal life: their third wedding anniversary.
After nearly a decade of being together, they tied the knot, further solidifying their relationship as one of the NFL’s most enduring power couples.
As they continue to build their future together, Brittany’s journey from passionate fan to famous WAG and beyond shows how far she’s come, both on her own and alongside her legendary husband.
