So, let’s talk about Kayla Nicole – sports commentator extraordinaire and ex-girlfriend of NFL star and famous mustache aficionado, Travis Kelce. They were together for five whole years, and then boom, they split in 2022. Cue the dramatic soap opera music because shortly after, Travis started dating none other than pop sensation and professional breakup songwriter Taylor Swift. And if you thought that’s where the drama ended, oh sweet summer child, it was only the beginning.
In a recent interview on the “Unapologetically Angel” podcast (because why be angelic if you’re not doing it unapologetically?), Kayla got real about all the hate she’s been getting online. Apparently, people have way too much free time and have decided to make it their full-time job to troll her.
“I’d be lying if I said the hate and online chaos didn’t get to me. Like, I could use that lie detector machine but it would blow up. Even now, it still affects me,” Kayla confessed, probably while side-eyeing her phone like it’s a portal to the Upside Down.
She even threw in some examples of what trolls have been saying. Imagine waking up, scrolling through your feed, and seeing people passionately debating whether you’re “worthless” or “a career-less talentless blob of space.” Yup, that’s Kayla’s morning routine.
And what’s causing all this chaos? Honestly, Kayla doesn’t even know. Was it a full moon? Is it because Travis is now dating a literal pop goddess? Who can say? She just blames it on Travis’ fame. You know, that “I’m an NFL star who dates chart-toppers” kind of fame that attracts every weirdo from the internet’s depths.
“I think there’s something about that level of fame that’s like a beacon for crazy people,” she said, probably waving her arms like one of those inflatable tube guys outside car dealerships. “And I haven’t done anything to deserve it. I didn’t rob a bank. I didn’t cancel Game of Thrones. So why all the hate?”
But wait, what’s her vibe with Travis now? Are they beefing? Throwing shade at each other across crowded rooms? Nope. Kayla keeps it classy. Apparently, when they bump into each other in public, it’s more like two awkward co-workers who just nod at each other by the water cooler.
“We’ve seen each other, but we both know that if we so much as wave, the internet will explode into ‘ARE THEY SECRETLY BACK TOGETHER?’ So, we just nod. That’s right, just two people nodding like bobbleheads at a football game,” she explained. Ah, nothing says “I’m over you” like a solid head nod.
And what about the Kansas City Chiefs WAGs (wives and girlfriends) she was once tight with? Well, things have cooled down. Like, way down.
“We’re cool. Not ‘let’s get mani-pedis and gossip over mimosas’ cool. But, you know, civil. We used to be a lot cooler… but now we’re more ‘hey, I see you, but I don’t have time for this’ cool.”
Kayla Nicole, forever classy in the face of internet trolls, head-nodding her way through life, and keeping it real with the WAG squad. Stay tuned for the next episode of this NFL-singer-commentator love triangle saga, because with this level of fame, the chaos never sleeps!
