Brittany Matthews, co-owner of KC Current and wife of Kansas City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes, stepped forward in defense of her brother-in-law, Jackson Mahomes, during an Instagram Q&A on Sunday.
In response to a question about the comments directed at Jackson, Brittany, 27, called them “ignorant,” stating that Jackson is simply navigating life and finding his way. She urged critics not to judge unless they have walked in his shoes, emphasizing: “So it’s better to just shut up.”

While the fan did not detail the specific comments, recent controversies involving the 22-year-old have arisen. Jackson reportedly faced accusations of assault from restaurant owner and waiter The Kansas City star in March 2023.
The outlet detailed allegations in which Jackson was accused of forcibly kissing restaurant owner Aspen Vaughn and shoving a teenage waiter on February 25.
Vaughn recounted the incident, expressing her anguish and her attempts to defend herself against Jackson’s advances, seeking help because she felt overpowered. Brandan Davies, Jackson’s attorney, defended his client, denying wrongdoing and citing witness statements that contradicted the accuser’s claims.
Despite the controversy, Jackson has yet to publicly address the matter, and his social media activity was noticeably reduced after attending the Super Bowl with Matthews and her family earlier this year.
In a recent TikTok video, Jackson mouthed Drake’s lyrics, hinting at his personal experience: “I’ve been losing friends and finding peace, but honestly, that seems like a fair deal to me.”
This isn’t the first time Jackson has sparked controversy; She previously received criticism for dancing on the sidelines, engaging in altercations with fans, and sparking outrage in 2021 for filming a TikTok video with a logo honoring the late Sean Taylor.
Amid the scrutiny, Gracie Hunt, daughter of Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, similarly defended Jackson, addressing misconceptions about him ahead of the 2023 Super Bowl amid criticism over his social media presence.
