LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: After Kayla Nicole, the ex-girlfriend of NFL star Travis Kelce, opened up about her past relationship on the podcast 'Unapologetically Angel,' hosted by WNBA star Angel Reese, fans of Taylor Swift have unleashed a wave of criticism directed at her.

Nicole, who dated Kelce on and off for five years before he began dating Swift, discussed the challenges she faces post-breakup and the subsequent public scrutiny.

Kayla Nicole discusses lack of communication after Travis Kelce's new relationship

In her interview, Kayla Nicole explained that Travis Kelce’s new romance with Taylor Swift makes any chance of rekindling communication virtually impossible.

Nicole also faced criticism from 'Swifties' for not mentioning the singer by name and referring to her instead as Kelce's new "situation."



 

When asked if she and Travis would talk in public, she replied, "I'd probably like hit him with a head nod. 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."

However, her remarks did not resonate well with Swift’s devoted fan base, known as “Swifties.”

Taylor Swift's fans call out Kayla Nicole

In the wake of Kayla Nicole's candid remarks about her past relationship with Travis Kelce, many Taylor Swift fans took to social media to express their disapproval.

One fan on X questioned, "Travis made the first move and now Taylor is just a “situation”? The audacity of this lady."



 

Others echoed similar sentiments, and one user stated, "Angel so weird for that "i loved yall together" when they both done moved on. Just a hollow space behind those chunky glasses and wide set eyes. And Kayla calling her ex new gf a "situation"? Girl stop being this way."



 

While another added, “Jealously will make you weak."



 

A fan commented, “Unapologetically stupid."



 

One added, "When your ex is in a new serious relationship, there is no room for you anymore."



 

 Another said, "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 denies rumors of Travis Kelce’s frugality

Kayla Nicole also took time to address rumors about Travis Kelce’s alleged frugality during their relationship, specifically claims that he made her split the bill.

When Reese asked if that was the reason they broke up in 2022, Nicole firmly denied the claims, saying, “Do I look like I would go 50-50 on bills? So yeah, that was ridiculous.”



 

She clarified that such rumors were baseless and reiterated, “I don’t even know why that became a thing. That was never an issue in our relationship, but it was definitely a rumor on the internet.” Travis Kelce and Kayla Nicole’s relationship lasted from 2017 until their breakup in May 2022.

Since then, Kelce has been romantically linked to Taylor Swift, with their relationship gaining traction in the summer of 2023 and confirmed in September.
