Patrick Mahomes has offered his stance on the presidential election after his wife, Brittany, and close friend Taylor Swift’s opposing views have sparked controversy
Taylor, who is dating Patrick’s teammate Travis Kelce, endorsed Kamala Harris for President following Tuesday’s debate just a couple of weeks after her fellow Chiefs WAG hit headlines.
Brittany, who has been married to the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback since 2022, sparked a liberal meltdown last month when she liked a Donald Trump post on social media.
The close friends’ opposing political views have triggered fears for what they could mean for their fledgling friendship.
But while his wife and the popstar have dominated headlines with their political differences, Mahomes opted to sit on the fence.
Every time I get asked these questions, I’m going to refer back to that because I think that’s what makes America so great.’
Taylor and Brittany developed a close friendship last season, as their partners led the Kansas City Chiefs all the way to the Super Bowl once more.
But amid their stances on opposite sides of the American political spectrum, fears of a rift grew when they sat in different luxury suites for the Chiefs’ season opener against the Baltimore Ravens.
Yet, despite courting controversy, Brittany and Taylor dispelled any rumors of bad blood when the Mahomeses joined the songstress and Kelce at the US Open Sunday.
A source exclusively told DailyMail.com that they ‘respect that they have different views’ and have made a ‘pact’ to avoid discussing politics last month and the couples appeared to be nothing but friendly as they soaked up the on-court action.
And Mahomes insisted that the ability to put politics aside and work across the aisle is something the nation should foster.
‘Dating back, if you see my history, I’ve been running with people from every aspect of life and every background,’ he added.
