Kayla Nicole slammed by Taylor Swift fans after shocking revelations about Travis Kelce
Swift fans rushed to hit out at Kelce’s ex-partner after a podcast appearance.
Swifties have rushed to criticize Travis Kelce’s ex after she refused to say Taylor Swift’s name as she revealed what she would do if she saw the Kansas City Chiefs’ star in public again, two years on from the end of their relationship.
Kayla Nicole dated the triple Super Bowl champion from 2017-2022, although they had a brief break-up in 2020, but since then things appear to have been eerily frosty between the reporter and the footballer, as well as the rest of the Chiefs’ family.
That’s especially true since the tight end began his relationship with the 34-year-old billionaire popstar in 2023, leading to Nicole to unfollow Brittany Mahomes on social media to try to “protect” herself from online criticism and conspiracies.
However, she didn’t manage to completely stave off the Swifties baying for blood after she described Swift as a “situation” whilst speaking to the Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese about what would happen if she saw her ex in public again.
“I’d probably like hit him with a head nod,’ Nicole told Apologetically Angel. “That’s about it. We’ve seen each other in public spaces.
“But we are both aware of the nature of his situation that there’s just no room for us to communicate or acknowledge each other publicly. So we’d just keep it moving.”
Swift fans react
Nicole has been subject to online abuse from the fans of Swift, who have crossed the line at times, leading to very little activity and updates in the way of her life.
She even said she now gives Swift’s new bestie, Brittany, a wide berth despite the pair of them enjoying a close relationship when Nicole was dating Kelce in order to try to stay away from any backlash.
However, due to her decision to not name the Cruel Summer singer directly, she once again found herself subject to the opinion of Swift’s fans.
One user wrote on X.com, formerly Twitter, “Why is she talking about him? Let’s move on.”
A second opined, “She is embarrassing herself badly.”
A third claimed, “When your ex is in a new serious relationship, there is no room for you anymore.”
And a fourth bemoaned, “What does she mean there’s not room for us to talk WHY WOULD IT BE HES IN A RELATIONSHIP IS SHE DUMB????”

Kayla Nicole Opens Up About Hate
Nicole, who dated Kelce from 2017 to 2022, revealed the harsh reality of being linked to such a high-profile relationship. Reflecting on the negative comments she receives, she said:
“I would be lying if I said that that level of hate and online chaos doesn’t impact me, because it does, even to this day.”

“You can go to my most recent post and there will be people debating each other why I’m worthless, and I’ll never be a talented person and I have no career.”

Addressing the Rumors: “It Has Nothing to Do with Me”
She also told the reason behind the hate she has faced. According to her, she has not done something that warrants her being bombarded with hate, and ” the extreme fame surrounding Kelce and Swift is what attracts negative attention:”
“It has nothing to do with me. I think that there’s something about that level of fame that attracts crazy people. It’s unfortunate, because I’ve never done anything to warrant that kind of backlash.”
Her insight gives a peek into the effects public attention can cause, even when they’re not in the limelight anymore.
Dismissing the Rumors About Kelce Being “Cheap”
Another rumor that has been haunting Nicole ever since she and Kelce broke up relates to the apparent frugality of the Chiefs tight end. Most fans thought that this was one of the major reasons why they had to split; he was asking them to split the bill on dates. However, according to the podcast, Nicole shot this down.
“That was never an issue in our relationship, but it was definitely a rumor on the internet,” she clarified.
Nicole branded the whole situation as “ridiculous” and further added that even Kelce had talked about the rumor in the past:
“That was ridiculous. But he addressed it too. I don’t even know why that became a thing.”
Revelations from Kayla Nicole give a very clear view on the intense scrutiny attachment with celebrity couples brings. Given that Nicole is now out of Kelce, online hate and baseless rumors continue to trail her. But Nicole has remained extremely grounded, which brings to emphasis how much of the backlash is not about her and everything to do with the media circus about Kelce and Swift.
