n a surprising revelation, Randi Mahomes, the mother of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, has openly discussed her financial struggles despite her previous marriage to former MLB star Pat Mahomes. This admission came in the wake of a controversial commencement speech by Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker, which sparked significant debate and reaction from fans.
Butker, known for his impressive kicking abilities, delivered a commencement address at Benedictine College that quickly became a hot topic.
In his speech, Butker described being a homemaker as one of the “most important” roles a woman can hold, a statement that ignited a firestorm of opinions.
Addressing the backlash for the first time on Friday at the Regina Caeli Academy’s Courage Under Fire gala in Nashville, Butker defended his comments.
Amidst the controversy, Randi Mahomes took to social media to express her support for Butker. She retweeted a portion of his response with a simple, yet powerful, “Amen.”
Her endorsement was unexpected, considering the divisive nature of Butker’s remarks. Not everyone appreciated Randi’s show of support.
“You literally married a pro athlete…you walked into money. Stay quiet.” A user commented.
To which she replied: “And was left with none.”
