Travis Kelce’s ex Kayla Nicole posts cryptic message amid Taylor swift song rumors

NFL star Travis Kelce’s former girlfriend Kayla Nicole, recently shared a mysterious message online just as fans started linking Taylor Swift’s new song to her. Kayla and Travis dated on and off for about five years before calling it quits in 2022.

Now, some believe that a new track from Taylor’s album The Life of a Showgirl, may be referencing Kayla and Travis’ past.

Instagram story raises eyebrows

On October 5, Kayla reposted a video to her Instagram stories! that caught fans’ attention. In the clip, Tyra Banks asks a contestant, “How do you compare yourself to the other girls out there?”

The winner of America’s Top Model season three, Eva Marcille replies, “I don't compare myself to other girls...I'm no comparison to anyone else.”

Though Kayla didn’t directly say anything about the Lover hitmaker or Travis, the timing of the post made it seem like a response to the rumors.

Lyrics that sparked speculation

The rumors started after fans heard Taylor’s song Opalite, which includes lines that many think hint at Travis’s relationship with Kayla. Some lyrics describe a man going through emotional struggles before finding peace and love.

One part of the song especially stood out, “You couldn’t understand it / Why you felt alone... She was in her phone / You were just a pose”

Fans believe this could refer to past moments between Travis and Kayla, especially since an old video resurfaced showing the two arguing during dinner.

A look back at their past

In the resurfaced video, Kayla is seen telling Travis, “Sometimes, if someone would pay me attention ... I wouldn't have to go on social media and seek validation from a bunch of strangers on the internet.”

To which Travis responds, “Oh, my God. Get off your phone… Get off your phone. You're not even drinking your wine anymore. Can we go?”

That moment now feels more significant to fans as they try to decode the meaning behind the singer’s lyrics.

Silence from Kayla and Taylor

Neither Kayla nor Taylor has directly commented on the rumors. However, when asked about the song Opalite, Travis said, “He loves that one.”

While the meaning behind the lyrics remains unclear, Kayla’s subtle message has certainly added fuel to the fire and fans are eager to see what happens next.
