Brittany Mahomes Calls Out Haters After Backlash for Reportedly Liking Donald Trump’s Post
Brittany Mahomes shared a message for any haters this week following social media backlash for reportedly liking a post from former President Donald Trump.
The Kansas City Current co-owner, 28, uploaded a statement on her Instagram Stories on Friday, Aug. 23, in which she called out haters with “deep rooted issues.”
She did not specify what she was referring to in the upload, which she shared amid social media backlash over her reportedly liking an Aug. 13 Instagram post shared by Trump.
Outlets including Newsweek and The New York Post both reported on the apparent social media like, with multiple accounts on X (formerly Twitter) sharing screenshots and screen-recorded video of Mahomes’ Instagram handle appearing beneath Trump’s post.
Mahomes’ like does not appear on the post as of Saturday, Aug. 24 and she does not follow Trump on Instagram, nor has she openly endorsed a candidate for president.
“To be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep-rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood,” the message on Mahomes’ Instagram read. “There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well.”
She also capped off the text-only Instagram Stories post by writing above it, “I mean honestly.”
