Social media tends to showcase the polished and perfect, but Brittany Mahomes, wife Kansas City Chiefs’ star Patrick Mahomes, took an unexpected step on Tuesday.
Brittany’s ongoing skin struggles
The 28-year-old former athlete, co-owner of the Kansas City Current, peeled back the curtain on her Instagram Stories to share a raw and unfiltered glimpse into her ongoing battle with acne. After stunning fans with a glamorous photo from a family photoshoot, Mahomes followed up with a barefaced boomerang snapshot, revealing her struggle with breakouts around her mouth.
“Actually really struggling with my skin right now, trying to figure out why it’s just breaking out,” she confessed to her nearly two million followers, likening the blemishes to an allergic reaction.
This candid revelation comes as a surprise to many, as Mahomes is typically seen with immaculate hair and makeup, courtesy of professionals like artist Kristen Farrah and hairstylist Anna Sullivan. However, this glimpse into her reality offers a refreshing contrast to the carefully curated images often seen on social media.

Mahomes’ continue to navigate NFL offseason as a unit
Mahomes, who shares two children with Patrick Mahomes, celebrated their second wedding anniversary this month. Their journey into parenthood, including the unexpected conception of their second child, has been openly shared with fans, demonstrating Mahomes’ commitment to authenticity in both joyous and challenging moments.
This isn’t the first time Mahomes has peeled back the layers of perfection. Earlier this month, she shocked fans by revealing a back injury, urging fellow mothers to prioritize pelvic floor health. Despite her setbacks, Mahomes maintains a positive attitude, recently attending the KC Current’s home opener at their new stadium, the first built specifically for a professional women’s sports team.
Addressing the crowd before the game, Mahomes expressed gratitude for the support, emphasizing the significance of the moment in women’s sports history.
