Travis KelceS Ex Kayla nicole Addresses Backlash Over Resurfaced Tweets
Kayla Nicole, the former girlfriend of Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, has responded to criticism after old tweets perceived as critical of his current relationship with Taylor Swift resurfaced online. The renewed attention on Nicole’s past social media activity comes as Kelce prepares for the Chiefs’ game against the Denver Broncos this Sunday.
The controversy began when users on social media platforms rediscovered tweets from 2023, reportedly posted shortly after Kelce began publicly dating Swift. Some interpreted the posts as subtly shading the relationship. Nicole addressed the situation in a statement posted to her Instagram story, stating she has “grown considerably” since those tweets and asking for respect for her privacy.
Nicole and Kelce dated on and off for five years, separating in 2022. The resurfacing of the tweets highlights the intense public scrutiny surrounding Kelce’s personal life since his relationship with swift became widely known. Swift and Kelce announced their engagement in August, and Swift recently released her album, “Life of a Showgirl,” with lyrics in one song, “Opalite,” speculated by some to reference Nicole.
Nicole’s statement emphasized her personal growth and requested that people refrain from “digging up the past.” She did not directly address the specific tweets or their interpretation. Kelce is currently in his 13th NFL season, all with the Kansas City Chiefs, and the team is coming off a bye week.
