Taylor Swift returned to Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday to watch the Chiefs and was unable to see Brittany Mahomes for the second week in a row.
Swift and Mahomes have developed a close bond through their respective relationships with Chiefs stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, but have recently publicly endorsed different presidential candidates — Mahomes herself was seen liking a Donald Trump post on social media and Swift endorsing Kamala Harris.
And while the friends were spotted together again at last weekend’s US Open, they sat apart for the second week in a row at Arrowhead when Swift was spotted without Mahomes in her suite.
Mahomes also posted an Instagram story of his sighting, with no sign of the singer, as he posed with his and Patrick’s children, Sterling Skye and Lavon (‘Bronze’).
Swift arrived at Arrowhead Stadium earlier today, making a stylish entrance in a long Chiefs jersey, knee-high black boots, and gold jewelry, as seen in pictures posted to X by KSHB’s Aaron Ladd.

Brittany Mahomes showed off her Arrowhead view, with no sign of Taylor Swift, as she posed with her and Patrick’s kids.
Joining her at the game were her mother Andrea, her brother Austin and singer Danielle Haim.
Swift was already a fixture in the Sunday news cycle, and for no reason of her own.
It was once again a topic of national discussion after former President Donald Trump posted “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT” in capital letters on his social media platform, Truth Social.
Swift recently publicly endorsed Kamala Harris for president, a move that generated 338,000 visits to Vote.gov, a federal voter registration website that the “Fortnight” singer linked to in her endorsement post on Instagram.
This was not the first time Trump criticized the pop superstar this week, saying he likes “Mrs. Mahomes much better.”
It’s a reference to Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who recently expressed support for Trump’s 20-point platform by liking one of his campaign posts on Instagram.
Brittany has since been praised and criticized by conservatives and liberals respectively for her support of the 45th president.
Taylor Swift made her arrival at Arrowhead Stadium before a game between the Cincinnati Bengals and her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs.
Swift is attending his second Chiefs game in just two weeks after watching 13 last season.
Swift arranged a ride to his luxury suite inside Arrowhead Stadium to watch the Chiefs-Bengals game.

The question lingering Sunday was whether political differences would prevent Swift and Brittany from reuniting at Arrowhead Stadium.
At the NFL’s Week 1 opener, Swift was in a luxury box alongside Chariah Gordon, the fiancée of Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman. Notably absent from Swift’s box was Brittany Mahomes.
That helped fuel speculation that there could be a rift between the two over political differences.
But, as sources told the Daily Mail after the first game of the season, there is no bad blood between the two.
The couple had been spotted at a swanky Kansas City cocktail bar after the first game of the 2024 season, celebrating the start of another NFL campaign.
Swift and Mahomes were also spotted together enjoying the US Open men’s singles final last Sunday.

Whether Swift will be reunited in the luxury box with Brittany Mahomes remains to be seen.
The friends’ different political leanings have fueled rumors of a breakup, which have been debunked.
When Taylor Fritz was defeated by Jannik Sinner, Brittany and Taylor were seen warmly embracing each other as drinks flowed in their suite (not including Brittany, who is pregnant).
The two couples appeared to be in good spirits as guests sipped champagne.
The group, minus Brittany, ordered two bottles of Moët et Chandon rosé Champagne and two bottles of Impérial Moët et Chandon Champagne, sources close to Travis said. The US Sun.
They later enjoyed a double date in New York City, as both couples arrived hand in hand at Meduza Mediterrania.
But since then, Swift has fully backed Harris, whereas before it was just rumors.
Brittany has also been the subject of some pretty brutal harassment from Swift’s fans in recent days since her endorsement.
But a source told DailyMail.com exclusively that they “respect that they have different views” and made a “pact” to avoid discussing politics last month.
It remains to be seen whether the friends will be seen together off the field.
Taylor and Brittany didn’t seem to hold any hard feelings after sitting separately at the Chiefs’ first game.
Brittany and Taylor seemed to be in good spirits as they watched Jannik Sinner vs Taylor Fritz.
On the field, it should be a close battle, with Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce expected to play starring roles.
Last week, with Swift around, the Chiefs were able to beat the Baltimore Ravens, even though the Mahomes-Kelce connection wasn’t at its best.
Kelce caught three of his four targets for just 34 yards and finished the night as Kansas City’s fourth-leading receiver.
He’ll be hoping to bounce back against a Cincinnati team that was upset at home in Week 1 by the New England Patriots.
