Travis Kelce‘s ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, recently appeared on the Unapologetically Angel podcast to discuss everything from her career as a sports commentator to her history with the Kansas City Chiefs star. Although she and Kelce have been broken up for years now, Nicole admitted she can’t seem to escape their past. Why? Well, it’s all thanks to Taylor Swift fans.
How Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Relationship Has Affected the Athlete’s Ex-Girlfriend Kayla Nicole
Since Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce began dating in 2023, Kayla Nicole revealed that she’s been unnecessarily targeted by some of the singer’s fanbase on social media. “I would be lying if I said that that level of hate and just, like, online chaos didn’t impact me, it does,” Nicole told host Angel Reese.
Even though Swift and Kelce have been going strong for over a year, Nicole said a lot of Swifties continue to leave her hate comments “to this day.” Apparently, the criticism always has to do with Nicole’s level of success. “You can go to my most recent post and it will be people debating each other why I am worthless and I’ll never be a talented person and I have no career,” she explained.
Nicole said she doesn’t understand why Taylor Swift fans attack her since she’s “never done anything to warrant that kind of backlash.”
Since Swift and Kelce are so public, Nicole admitted she tries her best to keep her distance from the athlete to prevent any further drama. If she does end up seeing her ex, she’ll only address him with a “head nod,” but nothing more. “There’s just no room to communicate or acknowledge each other publicly without it being spun into something crazy,” she said.
Kayla Nicole and Travis Kelce started dating in 2017. After being on and off for five years, the pair called it quits for good in 2022.
