Jackson Mahomes has appeared to confirm that he has a girlfriend, posting a ‘hard launch’ video on TikTok on Friday night.
The younger brother of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick shared a clip where he kisses the cheek of Shyanne Blankenship before they both mouthed along the words to ‘Poker Face’ by Lady Gaga.
The 24-year-old captioned the video ‘hard launch’ and tagged Blankenship in a reply to one his follower’s comments.
The couple appear to have known each other for a while, even though it is unclear exactly how long they have been an item. Mahomes was pictured with Blankenship at a Drake concert last year.
She also appears to be a Kansas City Chiefs supporter, judging by recent posts on her Instagram cheering the team on for the Super Bowl.
The younger Mahomes himself attends every Chiefs game in Kansas City to support his Super Bowl-winning brother in the NFL. He has even shared a suite with Taylor Swift before and at the Super Bowl in February, posed for a picture alongside Donald Trump.

Last year, fans spotted Jackson leaving flirty comments on posts from Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole.
He commented on one of her posts praising her outfit, saying: ‘You ate with his fit. Very demure!’
In December 2023, Nicole shared an array of new pictures on her Instagram with the caption: ‘Studies show that people who mind their business are 135% happier than those who don’t. Some of y’all should try it.’
The younger Mahomes brother commented on the pictures after giving them a like, and then saying: ‘so pretty!’.
In March 2024, Mahomes was sentenced to six months’ probation in a case alleging an assault on a woman.
He pleaded guilty to a single misdemeanor count of battery, according to online court records that were reported at the time.
The sentencing came more than two months after prosecutors dismissed three felony charges for aggravated sexual battery related to accusations that Jackson Mahomes grabbed a woman by the neck and kissed her against her will inside an Overland Park, Kansas, restaurant in February 2023.
Those more serious charges were dropped due to a lack of cooperation from the woman, according to a court filing.

The remaining misdemeanor battery charge said Jackson Mahomes shoved a waiter who tried to come into a room where he was with the woman, according to investigators.
Prosecutors dropped the felony charges after the accuser, who was the owner of the restaurant, refused to testify in the case.
The woman reported that she endured death threats and harassment and that her restaurant was vandalized in the wake of the charges. She closed the restaurant in August.
Speaking in March last year, Mahomes’ mom Randi said the accusations of sexual battery were ‘fake’.
She told the ‘Got it from my Momma’ podcast in March 2024: ‘We put this past year behind us, where there was some fake allegations against him (Jackson) that finally came out which was a lot.
‘We were blessed that it all got dropped because the situation was for no reason.’
