Brittany Mahomes is red hot.
The 28-year-old former football player — who is married and has two children with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes — debuted her fiery new hair color in social media posts earlier this week. In the snaps, she models long, wavy auburn locks finished with soft curls.
“Feeling spicy,” she captioned it the photos above Instagram along with fire and hot pepper emojis.
Brittany's new shade is the perfect, probably unintentional homage to her husband's team colors of red and gold. The current Kansas City owner was previously blonde, meaning she's now rocked both shades the Chiefs are known for.
The color also happens to be the title of a song and an album by Brit friend Taylor Swift, whose fourth studio album, Redit topped the Billboard 200 for seven weeks as of November 2012. Nearly a decade later, Red (Taylor Edition) once again debuted at No. 1 on the chart.
The pop star and retired athlete first hit it off last fall when Swift joined the Chiefs Kingdom through her relationship with Travis Kelce. The pair became fast friends while chatting at games and sharing a suite at Arrowhead Stadium, and the “Anti-Hero” singer included Brittany in a few team hangouts in New York during the season.
Both women were also in attendance at the 2024 Super Bowl, which Kansas City won for the second year in a row. Swift joined the team on the field shortly after, kissing Kelce as NFL cameras and millions of viewers looked on.
“This season was special!” Brittany wrote Instagram After. “[Patrick] He never stopped believing in his team… through the ups and downs and all the doubters, he never questioned that team. He is a true leader and team player… I love you and am always and forever proud of you.”
