While Patrick Mahomes and his Kansas City Chiefs were battling Tom Brady and his Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV, Mahomes’ fiancee Brittany Matthews was engaged in a Twitter battle, of sorts.
Matthews, 25, a personal trainer and owner of Brittany Lynne Fitness, called out ESPN for tweeting out some photos of Mahomes, 25, during the game.
Since the photos weren’t the most flattering, Matthews thought it was ‘corny’ for the major sports network to be tweeting out such photos.
The first photo showed Patrick in the early part of the 4th quarter, with his team down 31-9, which would ultimately be the final score.
Mahomes looked a bit upset after one of his plays had gone wrong, with Matthews taking the sports network to task.
‘Cool ESPN, love the support of a major sports platform for one of the best players in the league…’ she said, adding five corn emojis next to, ‘yyyy’ indicating the photo was ‘corny.’
Towards the end of the game, with just two and a half minutes remaining, ESPN posted another shot of a downtrodden Mahomes, which Matthews also reacted to.
‘Y’all are (trash can emojis) for this too, but he looks damn good to me,’ Matthews added of her fiancee.
When all was said and done, Tom Brady walked away with his seventh Super Bowl title, defeating Mahomes’ Chiefs 31-9.
In her final tweet of the night, Matthews reiterated her support for her husband-to-be, as she got ready to have their first child.
‘Not how we wanted it to end, but 15 played his heart out and I’m always and forever proud of him in everything he does! Now let’s have a baby,’ she concluded.
Mahomes popped the question to Matthews, who he’d been dating since high school, on September 1 in a suite at the Chiefs’ home Arrowhead Stadium, the same day he received his Super Bowl ring.
Later that month, the couple announced they were expecting their first child, though they had to stay in separate bedrooms after a COVID-19 scare.
Mahomes’ backup quarterback Jordan Ta’amu tested positive for COVID, with Mahomes taking extra precautions.
Mahomes lead the Chiefs to a Super Bowl win in 2020 in just his second full season in the NFL.
