Patrick and Brittany have battled rumors for years
Patrick and Brittany married in 2022 and divorce speculation began almost immediately.
One memorable incident prompted Britney to clap back against famous podcast host Joe Rogan.
“Patrick Mahomes’ wife is pretty wild. She lives in the box and makes videos by herself. And Patrick is obviously a man, and then he has a crazy wife and a brother who does everything in the box,” comedian Shane Gillis commented on Rogan’s show.
“Oh Jesus. The problem is, once you get divorced, they keep that same energy. They come after you with that same energy,” Rogan responded.
“It’s so weird to hear grown men talking crap about someone’s wife,” Britney tweeted in response.
“It’s actually pathetic for grown men to hate women.”
Britney never named Rogan and Gillis by name, but it was clear they were the targets of her tweet.
These days, Britney is pregnant with her third child from Patrick.
Though her friendship with Taylor Swift has ended, it appears Britney’s marriage is still strong.
Thursday night, Patrick and the Chiefs begin their quest to win an unprecedented third consecutive Super Bowl championship.
Yes, Pat could welcome his third child and win a third ring in the same year. Exciting times for the Mahomes family!
