Brittany Mahomes made yet another stunning sideline appearance at the Kansas City Chiefs playoff game this weekend. And it wasn’t just her incredible Game Day ‘fit that [once again] had fans’ jaws on the floor. It was the mere fact that she was there. Less than a week after giving birth to her and her husband Patrick Mahomes’ third child, Brittany was back in action, showing her support for the Chiefs.
While guest co-hosting on Today with Jenna & Friends, Scarlett Johansson was shocked to see a photo of Brittany at the game just days after welcoming baby Golden Raye Mahomes.
“How is she upright?” the Black Widow star asked, per The Independent.
“She said her glam squad brought her back to life and made her feel human,” co-host Jenna Bush Hager said, referring to Brittany’s Instagram Story.
Johansson — who shares 10-year-old daughter Rose with ex-husband Romain Dauric and 3-year-old son Cosmo with Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost — was decidedly not on the sidelines of an NFL playoff game after welcoming a newborn.
“Six days after I had a baby, somebody told me that beer would help bring in your milk or whatever it is,” Johansson said. “So I think I had a giant Guinness and a huge bowl of puffed Cheetos, and I was staring into the abyss, like, ‘What have I done?’”
And that hilarious comparison tells us so much about the two moms. While Brittany — who also shares 3-year-old daughter Sterling and 2-year-old son Bronze with her high school sweetheart — spends the fourth trimester looking runway-ready, Johansson spent hers ready to satisfy the next craving.
And honestly, we love both options. It’s all about whatever makes you feel good, Mama! As long as Brittany wasn’t dragged to the stadium by Chiefs Coach Andy Reid, we’re all for her taking some time to do what she wants to do. And if Johansson chose Guinness over glam, all the power to her!
Although a small part of us does wonder if things would be different if there was a publicized pre-show smooch between Johansson and Jost. If the SNL WAGs famously gave their partners a good luck kiss ahead of each show, would Johansson have turned to her glam team? Or would she still have been Team Cheetos?
As for Hager’s postpartum vibe, her body was very much calling the shots. Apparently, she had “some hormone stuff acting up,” was “crying in a ball,” and “sort of taking it all out on one person.”
Because yes, Team Tears is an option too.
And who knows, maybe Brittany takes after Johansson and loads up on snacks. Or maybe she cries when she isn’t at the stadium. Or, heck, maybe the newly postpartum mom has a little bit of everything: A little beauty, a little beer, and a little bawling. There’s room for all three!
These gorgeous photos show moms who love their postpartum bodies.
