Kelce’s ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, had an on-and-off relationship with him for five years.

However, now that the two have parted ways, Kelce’s name has recently been linked to the singing sensation Taylor Swift. But it appears that Nicole still has some concerns about Kelce, as she took a surprising step involving her close friends amid the news of Swift and Kelce “hanging out” together.

As Taylor Swift is getting closer to the inner circle of the Chiefs, Kayla Nicole is distancing herself from them. Currently, the NFL community has become consumed with dating rumors surrounding Travis Kelce and Tay-Tay, which seems to be bothering the 31-year-old sports journalist. As a result, she recently unfollowed her former close friend Brittany Mahomes, as well as Brittany’s husband, Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, on Instagram. She also unfollowed Mahomes’ younger brother, Jackson Mahomes. However, the three of them still follow Nicole. This action was taken as Swift and Kelce’s alleged romantic involvement continues to be in the spotlight. But why did she unfollow them?

Well, according to reports, there are three main reasons for her unfollowing Brittany and others. Firstly, Brittany was seen at MetLife sharing a private suite with Taylor Swift and other celebrities. They were seen laughing, joking, and bonding, which could have been a cause of her unfollowing them. Secondly, the close bond developing between the mother of two and the 12-time Grammy winner may have played a role in Nicole’s decision. And thirdly, the two were spotted celebrating the Chiefs’ win together and going out for an outing last week.
