Patrick Mahomes’ fiancée is taking all the vitriol she’s been receiving online and trying to put it to good use.
Brittany Matthews, dragged on social media for her champagne-spraying celebration at Arrowhead Stadium after the Chiefs’ win over the Bills in the Divisional round of the playoffs, has created “Team Brittany” shirts for an anti-bullying initiative.
Matthews originally clapped back and said she was tired of being “attacked,” but has since changed her tune and instead teamed up with local t-shirt designer and seller Charlie Hustle to make the shirts.
“Me and my team have decided to try to turn this buzz into something and something good for the Kansas City community,” Matthews said Thursday.

“We have decided that part of the proceeds from the sales of this shirt are gonna go to Red Card KC which is a local charity here in Kansas City that works to prevent bullying.”
The 26-year-old says she often gets bullied online, so she’s happy to do her part.
“I do receive a lot of hate on a daily basis on social media and I know so so so many other people do as well,” Matthews said.
“That’s why I’m just proud to partner with this company and get behind this cause and hopefully push everything into the right direction and start spreading some more positivity on all of these platforms.”
One thing is for sure: If her fiancé pulls off another win this Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC Championship game, she’ll probably think twice about spraying champagne.
