The tea is spilled! Whether she’s jetting off to Los Angeles or hosting high-profile guests on her podcast, Angel Reese knows how to keep her audience entertained, even during the offseason. And this time, fans were eagerly waiting for the latest episode of her podcast, where Reese sat down with none other than model Kayla Nicole—former girlfriend of NFL star Travis Kelce. Reese had already hinted that this episode would spill some tea, and she didn’t disappoint, diving into some spicy topics during their chat.

But amidst all the buzz, she also made sure to show her support for Nicole, standing up for her against the hate she’s been receiving. During their conversation, Reese kicked things off by asking Nicole what she’s unapologetic about, to which Nicole confidently replied, “My entire existence.” She explained how her self-assurance fuels her unapologetic nature. But Reese wasn’t done there—she quickly stepped in to defend Nicole, addressing the hate she’s been receiving for her past relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce.

“People always try to attach you to your ex and knowing that like how has that been because I don’t know if you saw yesterday or two days ago, Toosii kind of said like he’s tired of seeing Baby M of rappers and like influencers becoming famous off of nothing” stated Reese. She was pointing to the frustration Toosii vented about certain personalities gaining fame simply because of their relationships with celebrities, a theme that seemed to resonate with the conversation Reese was having with her guest.

While Toosii had already stirred the controversy with his take, Reese had a different perspective. Basically the tea that I guess if you’re a baby mama you shouldn’t become famous or like you shouldn’t be. He, I guess, he was saying that it’s like they’re not putting any work to be a celebrity okay and you know how like people are trying to attach your name to one person like you’re your own person absolutely and everybody needs to know that,” stated Reese.

It has been evident that Kayla Nicole has been on the receiving end of social media backlash ever since her ex, Travis Kelce, started dating pop superstar Taylor Swift. The online chatter intensified recently when Swifties speculated about why the singer was absent from Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs game last month. As rumors swirled that Kayla Nicole might have attended the game, attention quickly shifted toward her, sparking a wave of negativity on her social media.

Nicole and Kelce were in an on and off relationship from 2017 to 2022, but despite their breakup and Kelce’s highly publicized romance with Taylor Swift, Kayla has never publicly mentioned Kelce by name. Instead, she’s taken the high road. In a recent episode of the Behind the Likes podcast, Kayla shared that she’s moved on and is no longer interested in dating athletes.

While Reese defended the model for her self-worth, Nicole herself had a powerful response for her critics, making it clear that she won’t be defined by her past relationship. “Whatever we talk about my past attachment an ex of mine that was an athlete when I started dating this person I had my own following period like I wasn’t at zero follow I had my own established following at the time,” said Nicole.

Well, it seems the friendship between Angel Reese and Kayla Nicole is blossoming after Nicole’s recent appearance on Reese’s podcast. The two are already enjoying outings together, showing that their bond is only getting stronger.
