Why all the sudden speculation about problems within Patrick's marriage to Brittany Mahomes?
Well the source seems to be a series of TikTok Videos documenting an awkward moment for the couple.
To be clear, Patrick and Brittany just welcomed their third child, and there's no reason to believe they're having marital problems. But that won't stop desperate influencers from claiming otherwise!
Patrick Mahomes Divorce Rumors: How Did They Start?
In the TikTok clips, Patrick and Brittany can be seen sitting courtside during a college basketball game.
Brittany turns to a friend and says, “Patrick told me not to rest.” She then smiles sarcastically to demonstrate that she is following his orders.
It was a slightly tense moment in what otherwise appears to be a healthy and stable marriage.
But that was enough to get the rumor going. And now, countless social media users are convinced that the couple is ready to part ways.
Patrick and Brittany have been battling rumors for years
Patrick and Brittany got married in 2022 and divorce speculation began almost immediately.
A memorable incident prompted Brittany to clap against famous podcast host Joe Rogan.
“Patrick Mahomes has a wife who is just wild. She is in the dressing room and films herself. And Patrick is obviously the man, and then he has a crazy wife and a brother in the club, who does all that stuff,” comedian Shane Gillis remarked on Rogan's show.
“Oh Jesus. The problem is, they keep that same energy when you divorce. They go after you with the same energy,” Rogan responded.
“Something about grown men talking about someone's wife is really weird,” Brittany tweeted in response, adding:
“Actually, grown men who hate women in general are pathetic.”
Brittany never addressed Rogan and Gillis by name. But it was obvious they were the targets of his tweet.
These days, Brittany seems to be loving life as a mother of three.
And while her friendship with Taylor Swift may have been tested during the election season, it appears Brittany's marriage is still going strong.
Now, Brit is once again preparing to cheer on the Chiefs in the playoffs.
Yes, Pat could welcome her third child and win a third ring in the same year. Exciting times for the Mahomes clan!
