Brittany Mahomes Speaks Out: Powerful Response to Online ‘Hate’
The Kansas City Chiefs kicked off their 2025 NFL season with a tough 27-21 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, leaving fans and players searching for answers and inspiration. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes was candid about the team’s performance in São Paulo, Brazil, admitting that the Chiefs lacked the necessary energy and mindset to secure a victory against their AFC West rivals.
“I feel like we had energy at practice yesterday and all throughout the week, but if you don’t come out with the right mindset, you get beat,” Mahomes told reporters. “Now, we have to learn from that, knowing that next week is going to be just as tough.”
With a highly anticipated home opener against the Philadelphia Eagles looming—a rematch of Super Bowl LIX—Chiefs Kingdom is eager for a rebound. Among the familiar faces expected at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, September 14, is Mahomes’ wife, Brittany Mahomes, who has become an influential figure both on and off the field.
Brittany Mahomes Finds Support and Shares a Message of Healing
In the wake of the season-opening defeat, Brittany Mahomes helped her husband brush off the loss by attending the friends and family soft opening of 1589 Prime, Patrick’s new restaurant venture with tight end Travis Kelce. The exclusive event drew notable guests, including Kelce’s fiancée, Taylor Swift, adding a sense of celebration and camaraderie to the Chiefs’ inner circle.
But Brittany’s attention was not solely on football or festivities. She took time to reflect on the current state of affairs in America, especially after the tragic death of Charlie Kirk, a prominent conservative influencer and close ally of former President Donald Trump. Kirk, 31, was shot and killed at Utah Valley University on September 10, just weeks after Trump himself survived a shooting at a campaign rally.
Brittany’s Message: “Hate Will Not Get Us Out of This Mess”
On September 11, Brittany Mahomes posted a heartfelt message to her Instagram Stories, addressing the climate of division and violence in the country:
“Hate will not get us out of this mess.
Your feelings might lie and try to tell you otherwise, but hate doesn’t know how to heal or build, only how to harm and destroy.”
Her words resonated with fans and followers, quickly circulating on social media and garnering praise for their compassion and wisdom. Chiefs fans, already familiar with Brittany’s outspoken support for her family and community, welcomed her call for unity and healing in a time of national grief.
Charlie Kirk’s Connection to the Mahomes Family
Charlie Kirk was a vocal supporter of the Mahomes family, often sharing his admiration for their achievements and values. Last season, Kirk reposted a video of Patrick’s mother, Randi Mahomes, wearing a MAGA hat and endorsing Trump at a Buccaneers-Chiefs game. He also celebrated Mahomes’ Super Bowl victory in 2024, posting,
“Patrick Mahomes gives glory to God. Forget all the noise, I love to see this.”
“Congrats to Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. He’s a great quarterback and a true leader. Appreciate that he gave all glory to God.”
Kirk’s public praise highlighted the intersection of sports, faith, and politics that often surrounds high-profile athletes like Mahomes.
Chiefs Kingdom Moves Forward
As the Chiefs prepare for their Week 2 showdown with the Eagles, Brittany Mahomes’ message serves as a reminder that football is more than just a game—it’s a platform for leadership, resilience, and positive change. Her call to reject hate and embrace healing echoes the values that have made the Mahomes family beloved in Kansas City and beyond.
With Brittany, Patrick, and their loved ones leading by example, Chiefs Kingdom enters the new season united in hope, ready to face challenges on and off the field.
