When it comes to celebrity relationships, sometimes the smallest gestures make the biggest waves. Brittany Mahomes sparked a wave of chatter with a simple “like” on Instagram. The “like” was for a comment that took us back to the roots of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s relationship, noting the retired soccer player’s presence from the start.
Brittany, 28, shared a collection of photos from her and husband Patrick Mahomes’ recent trip to London, capturing moments from Wimbledon, on Sunday, July 7. Among the many comments, one fan raved over the duo’s close connection with Swift and Kelce, both 34.
“Hope you all had a beautiful night together after the concert. You were there at the very beginning in 7/23. What a gift ❤️,” wrote the user, earning a “like” from Brittany.
This isn’t just fandom — the Mahomes couple have been at the center of Swift and Kelce’s unfolding love story from the get go. According to Patrick, 28, the relationship between the superstar songstress and Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end would have never happened if it wasn’t for him.
“I like to take some of the credit,” the quarterback said on the May 23 episode of The Pat McAfee Show. “I was the one who invited Travis to his first Taylor concert when [he brought] the friendship bracelet. He was sitting in my suite, so I feel like I was the matchmaker. I feel like I had some input there, as well. I was like, ‘Dude, you should go for it.’ And you know Travis, man, he does it… and I’m glad it’s all worked out.”
Kelce shared on his podcast New Heights how he planned to give the “Cruel Summer” singer his number on a friendship bracelet. While that didn’t happen, Swift eventually reached out and their relationship took off.
“She told me exactly what was going on and how I got lucky enough to get her to reach out,” the NFL star shared with WSJ Magazine in an interview from November 20, 2023, just two months after Swift made her first appearance at a Kansas City Chiefs game.
With friends like Brittany giving a simple “like,” who knows how many other small nods are shaping celebrity love stories. It’s the little things that can mean the most, especially in the spotlight.
