Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole is steering clear of his blockbuster engagement to Taylor Swift.

In a red-carpet interview with the Daily Mail at the House of Champion event — which was co-hosted by Sports Illustrated as part of New York Fashion Week — the 33-year-old on-air sports reporter was mum when she was asked to comment on the 35-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s new engagement.
‘Oh, no, no, no,’ Nicole — who split from Kelce in 2022 — replied as she glanced to the side. ‘But I’m really happy to be here at Champion, though! This is a dope party,’ she continued as she evade the question.
Kelce and Swift revealed late last month that they were ready to walk down the aisle when they shared photos from their engagement photoshoot.

Nicole went on to agree that she was more focused on living her life than on looking back on the past. Shortly after the engagement announcement, Kelce’s ex shared a cryptic post with her 846,000 Instagram followers.
At the time, she reposted a clip of Black-ish star Tracee Ellis Ross discussing why she feels it’s important to find ways to experience ‘joy’ in one’s life.
‘Read about this very concept years ago in a book called Choose Joy: Because Happiness Isn’t Enough,’ Nicole captioned the clip. ‘I aspire! So so good.’

Although many fans assumed the post was a veiled commentary on the engagement, Nicole urged her followers not to read too much into her posts.
‘You know, the IQ of many people today is very low,’ she said bluntly. ‘I don’t take it personal anymore.’ At the Champion event, Nicole also weighed in on the prospect of dating other athletes in the future.
‘Gosh, I don’t have any celebrity crushes,’ she admitted. Nicole explained that she had ‘met so many’ sports stars by working as a sports reporter that they now just seem like ‘regular’ people to her, without the mystique that fans at a distance might feel.
