Travis Kelce's ex Kayla Nicole has opened up about her last relationship and it's left social media users divided.

During a TikTok live conversation with Love Island reality star Ace Greene, Nicole was asked about her last relationship.

Now, Nicole could've easily had a relationship since Travis Kelce, but given her stating it was 'probably like three years ago,' and online reports claiming the pair broke up in 2022, some social media users believe it may match up.

Not only this, but it's hardly the first time Nicole has seemingly referred to her relationship with the NFL star either.

Kelce and Nicole are reported as having been in an on-off relationship for around five years, starting in 2017.

The pair first connected after Nicole slid into his direct messages on New Years, seemed to part ways at various points over the course of their relationship before splitting for good in May 2022.

And as to why the pair broke up?

Well, while not directly referencing Kelce, reflecting on her last relationship, Nicole told Greene: "Umm, who knows? Could be compatibility issues? Right person, wrong time."

And it's not taken long for social media users to weigh in.


Yikes: Travis Kelce's ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole has gone viral for saying her relationship with Travis ended because it was the “right person, wrong time,” implying she still has a chance with him.

One X user said: "Yikes: Travis Kelce's ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole has gone viral for saying her relationship with Travis ended because it was the “right person, wrong time,” implying she still has a chance with him. Kelce is marrying Taylor Swift this summer..."

"Let me help yall. Her and Travis have been broken up for four years, she said three years. For the love of god get a hobby," another defended.

A third echoed: "How do we know whether she’s even talking about Travis?"

"Shortie has made a whole press run the last 2/3 years talking bout Travis Kelce lol s**t werid," a fourth said.

And it's not the first time Nicole has been suspected of eluding to her relationship with the NFL star.

In November, some believed she took a swipe at Kelce's current partner Taylor Swift in the form of her Halloween costume.

Nicole seemed to cosplay Toni Braxton for Halloween with an iconic song about men and heartbreak and some took it as a 'clapback' to Swift's apparent diss track.

In 'Opatlite' in her The Life of a Showgirl album, Swift sung: "You couldn’t understand it, why you felt alone / You were in it for real, she was in her phone / And you were just a pose."

UNILAD has contacted Kayla Nicole's representatives for comment.
