The tension between Taylor Swift’s followers and Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, has reached a new level of discussion that has been growing since a controversial commercial during the Super Bowl, but actually has a history spanning several months.
What began as a series of subtle comments on social media has turned into a direct public confrontation after Nicole participated in a commercial that many consider an open mockery of the Chiefs tight end and his fiancée, pop star Taylor Swift.
In the promotional video for the fantasy sports app Sleeper, Nicole appears alongside comedian Tiffany Haddish and NBA star Ben Simmons. The advertisement features a fictional service called “Simmons and Haddish” designed to help people who have been “excommunicated” by their partners after a high-profile breakup. During the clip, Haddish ironically asks: “Have you or someone you know been injured emotionally in a high-profile relationship? It’s very common.”
The most critical moment occurs when Nicole is explicitly identified as the “Ex of a certain NFL player.” In a script loaded with double meanings, Simmons steps in to assure that he would help her get over Kelce quickly.
The new rivalry between Nicole and Swift
During a recent live broadcast on TikTok, Kayla Nicole reignited the controversy when she was asked about what her relationship with Kelce was like. Her response: “Who knows? It could have been compatibility issues, the right person at the wrong time.”
This comment was interpreted by Swift’s fan base as a sign of disrespect toward the couple’s current engagement. The “Swifties” were quick to express their displeasure on social media: “She’s here romanticizing a situation that ended in 2022… we’ve had two Olympic Games since then,” one follower said.
Kelce’s ex-girlfriend chose not to pay attention to the comments and remained focused on her live stream, although some believe she has not forgotten the breakup.
Currently, Kayla Nicole is the CEO of Tribe Therepe, a wellness brand that seeks to integrate psychology with physical activity.
Meanwhile, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are moving steadily toward their summer wedding.
