Kelce’s flame from the past might be an NBA follower. But she also prefers watching the NFL and seems to be an ardent Kansas City Chiefs supporter. But she once snubbed Travis Kelce over another star athlete after the Chiefs-Bengals divisional championship game.

Following last year’s defeat in the 2021–22 AFC Championship game, Patrick Mahomes began his fightback rally. The Chiefs could vindicate their previous loss and advance to the Super Bowl. The Chiefs Kingdom rejoiced after their team received the Lamar Hunt Trophy.

One of them was TE Kelce’s ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, who admired the number one quarterback. Nicole took to Twitter with only one word. She wrote “Mahomes.” While Nicole seemed to be a fan of the Chiefs, she did not acknowledge Travis Kelce, who had a touchdown during the game.
