Patrick Mahomes is sharing the sweet activity Taylor Swift does with his 3-year-old daughter, Sterling.
“Sterling is a big baker as well so they make some stuff together sometimes, and I’m not gonna say I don’t eat them,” Mahomes, 29, said on the Tuesday, October 15, episode of “The Drive” podcast, in which he answered non-football questions. (In addition to Sterling, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and wife Brittany Mahomes share son Bronze, 1, and are currently expecting their third baby.)
The three-time Super Bowl champion went on to reveal that while Swift, 34 – whose specialties including homemade cinnamon rolls for boyfriend and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce – hasn’t “specifically” baked for him, he has been lucky enough to snag some of the goodies before they disappear in his household.
“It is as good as everybody has talked about,” Mahomes said, noting that some of the treats he’s sampled include muffins and doughnuts. “She is great when it comes to baking.”
Swift famously made the Chiefs offensive linemen her homemade Pop-Tarts during the 2023-2024 season amid her budding romance with Kelce, 35, Chiefs head coach Andy Reid revealed at the NFL Scouting Combine in February.
“Kind of behind-the-scenes … she likes to cook, so she made the offensive linemen these homemade Pop-Tarts,” he said at the time. “So it was over. She knew right where to go.”
He jokingly added, “She didn’t give me one, and the offensive linemen definitely didn’t give me one.”
Reid, 66, isn’t the only Chiefs member to miss out on Swift’s Pop-Tarts. While answering another question on “The Drive” about what his favorite Pop-Tart flavor is, Patrick admitted he’s never had one in his life – both store-bought and homemade.
“I’ve never eaten a Pop-Tart in my entire life,” he explained. “I think I’m going to have to change that at some point because everybody loves them.”
While Patrick praised the 14-time Grammy Award winner for her skills in the kitchen, he is far from the first celeb to applaud Swift’s cooking.
“I kind of know her a little personally and she’s really kind of just normal and sweet,” Channing Tatum said during a July appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. “She’ll make you dinner and whip it up no problem. Like homemade Pop-Tarts. Warm Pop-Tarts. I’m like, ‘Did you just make these? How are these warm?’”
Kelce, whom she began dating in the summer of 2023, also praised his girlfriend for her culinary skills.
“I thoroughly enjoy cooking with her,” he told reporters in June. “Taylor makes a great Pop-Tart and cinnamon roll.”
