Finding out that your ex has a new partner is never easy.
Well, that’s exactly what Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole has been confronted with in the past couple of weeks. After plenty of speculation around a potential romance between Swift and the NFL player, things were seemingly confirmed when the “Anti-Hero” songstress turned up to a football game to watch her rumoured new beau show his talents on the field.
So how has Nicole, who dated Kelce on and off for about five years up until 2022, responded?
The social media influencer shared a video on her Instagram this Monday to address the “backlash and embarrassment”, she said.
“Kayla here, it’s always been really important to me to use my platform not to create division but to elevate and unite women – Black women specifically. So I prepared a letter and would like to share it with you today,” she started the video, before going on to talk about how she wouldn’t clap back at critics, saying that, “They’ll even try to tie your value to your net worth, but Black girl, please remember your value lies elsewhere.”
Although she doesn’t mention Swift or Kelce’s names in the clip, fans believe that it’s very likely the open letter is in response to her ex’s new relationship and the media reports around it.
