Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole has appeared to take aim at Taylor Swift’s legion of fans for ‘s**t talking’ in a TikTok rant about ‘cult’ followers.
Nicole, who dated Kelce from 2017 up until May 2022, has made headlines in recent months amid her ex-boyfriend’s high-profile romance with pop sensation Swift.
The 32-year-old influencer was reportedly unfollowed on social media by Travis after she made a flirty comment about Philadelphia Eagles star Jalen Hurts, while she also chose to unfollow his teammate Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs quarterback’s wife Brittany.
Now Nicole has seemingly hit out at fans of Swift in a video on TikTok, where she lip-syncs over a sound bite of rapper Drake addressing his detractors and issuing threats.
‘To the rest of you — the non-believers, the underachievers, the tweet and deleters — you guys make me sick to my stomach, fam,’ she mouths. ‘Honestly, look in my eyes – you guys wanna do something? That’s what I thought, no… That’s what I thought.’
Nicole captioned the post: ‘Fake page, sh*t talking, cult following, keyboard warriors – maybe take the year off babe?’
She also wrote text over the video which reads: ‘Who got something to say? Everybody. Who gone say it to my face? NOBODY’.
Nicole has shared a number of cryptic messages on social media since Kelce began dating Swift, including an emotional post about not being ‘enough’ for someone after ‘falling in love’.
‘They may call you a traitor for falling in love,’ the model wrote in October. ‘You’ll hope the ones closest will protect you but quickly realize people don’t protect what they don’t value.
‘They’ll say you’re too much … and in the same breath, tell you you’re not enough. Not successful enough, not wholesome enough, maybe not even intelligent enough.
‘They’ll even try to tie your value to your net worth.’
She added: ‘On days I feel most inadequate, I have to remind myself that I am, have been and will always be more than enough.’
Kelce’s personal life, especially who he is dating, garnered public interest well before Swift blew that part of his life into another universe.
The Chiefs tight end assumed a Bachelor-style role in the E! reality series ‘Catching Kelce’ with 50 women hoping to win his love.
Maya Benberry won the show, but her and Kelce split a month after filming ended and before the series aired in 2016.
Travis Kelce just went through a fleet of interviews to promote his music festival—aka Kelce Jam—and each of his musings on Taylor Swift is cuter than the next.
How-ev-er!!! Due to the footballer being completely open and not holding back at all, fans have—inevitably ¯\_(ツ)_/¯—compared his quotes about Taylor’s music to those of the singer’s ex Joe Alwyn, who was famously extremely private about their relationship.
Case in point? When the pro athlete was asked about listening to Taylor by Entertainment Tonight, he gushed, “That’s my everyday playlist. Not just my game day.” Meanwhile, when Joe was asked about his favorite Taylor song by GQ, he simply responded, “I’m just not even going to go into that side of the world.” 👀
While Joe is certainly entitled to his privacy, it’s worth pointing out that when he and Taylor broke up, a source said that the actor “has struggled with Taylor’s level of fame and the attention from the public. The differences in their personalities have also become harder to ignore after years together. They’ve grown apart.”
At the time, an Entertainment Tonight insider also noted that, “It was more of Taylor’s decision to break up, but both of them realized that they weren’t completely right for one another. They had been together for such a long time and were spending so much time together, but their personalities were just too different. Joe is more introverted, shy, and quiet.”
Point is, Joe is just an “introverted, shy” guy and Travis isn’t! To each their own, but we definitely love to see how supportive Travis is of Tay.
