Watch Video as Taylor Swift’s Bestie Brittany Mahomes shares Stunning Revealing Bikini Photos as she joins Sports Illustrated before Super Bowl and gets lot of PRAISES and CRITISM
Brittany Mahomes has posed for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s 60th anniversary issue, with the wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick announcing her shoot just days before the Super Bowl in Las Vegas.
Mahomes, 28, shared a video of her posing on a beach in San Pedro, Belize with SI describing her as ‘unapologetically herself’ ahead of joining as a 2024 rookie for their May edition.
‘I’m truly just so humbled and still in disbelief,’ Mahomes told the publication.
‘As a girl from Tyler, Texas, who only really knew sports, never in a million years did I think I’d be in the SI Swimsuit Issue. I’m just so grateful for this opportunity.’
Mahomes has seen her fame spiral through becoming one of Taylor Swift’s ‘besties’ since the singer starting dating Travis Kelce, one of Mahomes’ teammates at the Chiefs.
The two often sit alongside each other for Chiefs games at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City – they have even celebrated touchdowns with their own handshakes.
And away from the sport that brought them together, they have often dined in New York near Swift’s Manhattan townhouse.
But Mahomes is also well known for her work in soccer. She is also a former player through her time at the University of Texas at Tyler and spent time at a team in Iceland in 2017.
She retired in 2017 and started her own workout brand, but she is also a part-owner and founder of the women’s NWSL team Kansas City Current – which Patrick also owns a stake in.
The team are opening their own purpose-build women’s soccer stadium in March, a landmark moment.
‘These women deserve to feel important and have their own facility so that they can perform at their best,’ Mahomes said.
‘I hope this sets the bar for women’s sports everywhere and other cities continue to build around women’s sports. Just like young boys get to dream of playing football at stadiums like Arrowhead, I want young girls everywhere to aspire to play at stadiums like CPKC.’

Last week, Mahomes split the internet through a video of her asking a security guard for directions after the Chiefs beat the Baltimore Ravens two weeks ago to reach the Super Bowl.
Some fans disliked her manner and the way she twirled her finger while talking to the guard in the tunnel. People on social media accused her of being on a ‘high horse’, but others disagreed and insisted she did nothing wrong.
Mahomes appeared to hit back through a seemingly deliberate thinly-veiled post on her Instagram story of a quote that said: ‘I take rumors as a compliment. The fact that you’re bringing my name onto tables I don’t sit at shows your obsession. Stay bothered.’
But for now, the attention of the entire Mahomes family is on Sunday’s Super Bowl in Vegas, where the Chiefs take on the 49ers.
Patrick is bidding for his third Super Bowl victory and his team are bidding to join an elite list of teams to have won the title back-to-back.
Brittany, who is already in Vegas for the game, and Patrick met and began dating at high school and have two children together – one son and one daughter. They got married in 2022.
It isn’t yet known for certain if she will have a seat next to Taylor for the game, though.
She is currently midway through a four-date Eras Tour run in Tokyo, Japan that ends on Saturday night. But Japan is 17 hours ahead of Vegas, meaning time is on Swift’s side if she takes the journey on, as expected.
