The 2024 NFL season has been a total madhouse, and the Chiefs are right in the thick of it, gearing up for a showdown with the Bills that could make or break their playoff dreams. Mahomes is slinging, Kelce‘s doing his thing, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. But just when you thought all the drama was on the field, Travis Kelce’s ex drops a bombshell of an update. So unexpected it got everyone talking. Spoiler alert: this one’s not about touchdowns, but it’s just as wild.
Kayla Nicole, Kelce’s ex, recently took to X with a health update that has fans talking. She shared, “My vision is declining rapidly. Insane. 👵🏾” While the details remain unclear, it’s definitely concerning. Vision problems are no joke. But hopefully, let’s just think that she might have been seeking the help she needs. Health always comes first, and we’re wishing her the best.

Travis and Kayla called it quits a couple of years ago, but Kayla’s connection to the sport has remained strong. Even without Kelce by her side, she continues to follow football passionately. Her love for the game clearly runs deeper than her past relationship, and she’s still very much a part of the NFL fan community.
After the Eagles‘ 28-22 win over the Rams earlier, Kayla shared a playful message on her Instagram story. “Eagles fans. Happy for you. Happy for you, real cute. But that’s not gone cut next weekend. I’m telling you right now.” Her Philly spirit shone through, and she wasn’t holding back on hyping her team’s energy.

While her love for Eagles is no secret (just a speculation, but she sure reps them hard), there’s a lot of curiosity about where her loyalties lie when it comes to her ex Travis Kelce’s team. Will she support the Chiefs or the Bills?
Relationship end = Least favorite team?
Kayla Nicole’s been keeping it real about the Chiefs as they head into their AFC Championship game showdown with the Bills. She’s not exactly feeling the Chiefs’ dominance this year, saying, “As much as I’d love to see somebody else in the Super Bowl, just to see something new, it’s not gonna happen.” She’s “bored” of seeing the Chiefs’ advance, she said. Sounds like she’s kind of overseeing the same teams in the big game and is rooting for a little change of pace. The Chiefs’ success is undeniable, but she’s ready for a fresh story. And ‘most of the Chiefs are as well’

That said, Kayla still shows some serious respect for the Chiefs’ offense, especially when it comes to Travis Kelce. She pointed out how Kansas City’s got the players who can come through when it counts, saying, “They have guys they can throw the ball to who aren’t going to drop the ball in the end zone.” And of course, she made sure to give Kelce a special shout-out: “Travis Kelce—that’s a tight end that’s not gonna do it.” Even though she’s not fully backing the Chiefs, this one just doesn’t make sense.
Kayla also gave a nod to the insane energy at Arrowhead Stadium, calling it the “loudest” in the NFL. “There’s nothing like that environment,” she said, clearly appreciating the magic of Chiefs’ games, even if she’s not on the bandwagon this season. Her feelings might be mixed, but she still knows the Chiefs have what it takes to get the job done, even if she’s secretly hoping someone else steals the show this time.
