Everything You Need to Know About Travis' Kelce's On-Off Former Girlfriend Kayla Nicole — After She Moaned About WAG Relationships

In 2017, Kayla Nicole sent an Instagram DM to Travis Kelce, and things quickly turned romantic afterward. They went public following the Kansas City Chiefs tight end's split from his Catching Kelce dating show winner, Maya Benberry.

Nicole and Kelce's on-again, off-again relationship continued for five years before they broke up for good in May 2022. Barstool Sports claimed the duo called it quits as Kelce forced his then-girlfriend to "pay for half of everything" while they were still dating, which the athlete denied.

Kelce told "The Pivot Podcast" in January 2023: "I would never say that I was supporting her. She had a very financially stable life and what she was doing in her career."

He added: "But you've got to be crazy if you'd think I would never helped or gave her a couple thousand to grab some food or she gave me some money to go get some food.... we were in a relationship for five years. A hundred dollars here, a hundred dollars there wasn't even thought about."

In her interview with Angel Reese on her podcast, Nicole detailed how her relationships with the WAGs, or the wives and girlfriends, of Chiefs players changed after her split from Kelce.

She said: "We're cool. But we're not as cool as we were before."

While Nicole has not been open about her love life, she revealed she is done dating athletes after her failed relationship with Kelce.

She said: "I'll never say never, but I fully, wholeheartedly believe that I am out of the athlete stage. I do think that I am attracted to men in positions of power, and I also think that those types of men are attracted to me."

Nicole added: "I would love to date an executive of a record label or a movie producer so that we can go to the sporting events. Let date night be courtside at the Laker game; that’s my kind of guy."

During the October 10 episode of "Unapologetically Angel" podcast, the sports journalist commented on Taylor Swift's fans who have sent her negative messages.

Nicole said: "I would be lying if I said that that level of hate and just online chaos doesn’t impact me. It does. Even to this day."

Referring to her Instagram posts that had been filled with unfriendly remarks about her, she explained: "It'll be people debating why I'm worthless and how I'll never be a talented person. And I have no career, and I'm a bum."

In a 2018 Instagram video, Nicole told her followers she graduated from Pepperdine University with a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism in 2013.

She wrote: "Hosting is where my heart is."

The fashion influencer has her own fitness brand, Tribe Therepē, which incorporates therapy and physical exercise elements.

She told People: "It's focusing on the mental health component of working out, which is really, really important for me an1d really resonates with me, and really just encouraging people to mentally take care of themselves."
