Brittany Mahomes wrote a scathing message on Instagram slamming her “haters” as underdeveloped adults after facing criticism for recently liking a post from Donald Trump about his 2024 campaign platform.
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback’s wife defended herself in a Friday Instagram story, about 10 days after she pressed the little red heart icon on Trump’s post.
“I mean honestly,” Mahomes wrote in the story. “To be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood.
“There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well.”
Mahomes, 28, made no reference as to what the “haters” were chiding her for, but the clapback appears to follow criticism for supporting Trump’s social media post.
The August 13 Instagram post outlined the “2024 GOP Platform,” which included deporting “pro-Hamas radicals” and keeping “men out of women’s sports.”
Mahomes’ own social media account was clear of criticism — indicating she may have scrubbed any negative comments from her posts — but she received plenty of backlash on X.
“Brittany Mahomes just outed herself as a Trump supporter,” one person wrote.
“I don’t get how people with kids would still vote for a known child rapist/felon. Guess people like Brittany Mahomes prefer the tax breaks over child safety,” said another.
“Patrick Mahomes, imagine marrying someone who doesn’t care about your rights and your kid’s rights. Brittany Mahomes agreeing with Project 2025 but married to a black man with mixed kids is insane,” read one post.
Mahomes appears to have since removed her like from the post.
