This year’s Kentucky Derby was a special occasion. It is because it celebrated the 50th anniversary of the greatest racehorse to take the track, called Secretariat. In 1973, Secretariat broke all records by clocking a time of 1:59, a derby record that still remains unbeaten. The 2023 Kentucky Derby saw many NFL stars take part as well, including the likes of Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, and so on. 

But one NFL star did not shine in the limelight like his other counterparts. This NFL QB mostly stayed unrecognized, while fans instantly showered love on the others. Who was this star?

The 149th Kentucky Derby saw the likes of Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes perform special duties to make the Derby memorable. Brady took part as a narrator in an NBC sports video that was a tribute to Secretariat and its notable achievements. The GOAT of the NFL compared his career to the GOAT of the racetrack, receiving subjective flak from fans for the way he handled the narration. Apart from this, Chiefs 2X Super Bowl-winning QB Patrick Mahomes was handed over the honor of giving the official ‘riders up’ call to flag off the race. But where was Josh Allen?

Josh Allen did not make major headlines or get swarmed by fans like his counterparts in the derby. He received attention because of the custom-made suit he wore at the event. The three-piece sea foam suit was designed by New-Jersey-based designer Tom Marchitelli, whose client list includes multiple top sports personalities from all over the world. 

 

But that is not the only reason why the Buffalo Bills QB made the news. After rumors started circulating that he and his girlfriend, Brittany Williams, broke up after various social media activities, the duo might have made things much clearer after being spotted separately at the Derby.

Did the Derby provide a big clue about the alleged breakup?

Recently, Williams deleted pictures of Allen from her social media, but the QB did not follow up with the same. This led to rumors spreading like wildfire that the couple might have possibly called it quits on their relationship. The reason? Well, rumors point out that maybe Josh Allen had cheated on her with a local barmaid, and in the process, got her pregnant. While both of them were present at the Kentucky Derby, they did not face each other while attending the event in separate groups. The fire further intensified after a friend of Willams posted a selfie with her on a story with the caption, “Now accepting husband applications.”
