Patrick Mahomes’ fiancee, Brittany Matthews, facing criticism for spraying champagne after Chiefs win

January 28, 2022 admin

Patrick Mahomes’ fiancee, Brittany Matthews, is facing criticism on social media after a viral tweet showed her spraying Chiefs fans with champagne following the team’s divisional-round win over the Bills.

A copy of the video — in which Matthews joyously sprays champagne over the crowd below her — appears on her Instagram. Barstool Sports also tweeted the video with the caption, “For societies (sic) sake the Bengals need to win next week.” The Chiefs host the Bengals in the AFC championship game on Sunday.

The video created significant backlash for Matthews to the point she tweeted about it the following day:

I just wish I could do what I want without getting attacked every week.

Following that tweet, the Twitter account of Hangers Cleaners — a dry cleaner in south Kansas City — responded to Matthews offering to clean anyone’s clothes if she sprayed it:

We will clean, for free, any item that had any champagne from Brittany’s celebrating the @Chiefs epic win over Buffalo. Please bring to @hangerskc in Martin City with your game ticket and ask for Joe. @519jr

The response hasn’t been entirely negative. Former Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander, for example, chastised fans who criticized Matthews after she adopted Kansas City as her home and community. Matthews responded to the tweet, saying, “I appreciate this. So true!”

She’s raising a family with her high school sweetheart in a town she and her husband have embraced and invested in. She supports her partner. She celebrates with her fellow Kansas Citians. She is a part of our community.

Matthews had one more thing to say about the incident on Tuesday:

Hate is a very strong word to just be thrown at someone you don’t even know. ??‍♀️
