Travis Kelce did not get his hands on the third consecutive Lombardi. So, the 3-peat pipe dream got stuck in the clogged pipe forever, but Kayla Nicole? She’s out here winning workouts. And if her latest gym clips are any indication, she’s not just moving on—she’s moving weights. The sports journalist and fitness guru is proving that the real flex isn’t just in who you’re dating, but in how strong you are when you bounce back.
Now, let’s set the scene. Kayla and Kelce were an on-again, off-again thing for five years before officially calling it quits in 2022. Fast-forward to 2023, and Kelce’s dating arguably the most famous woman on the planet, Taylor Swift. The internet, as expected, lost its mind.
Kayla, meanwhile, found herself caught in a tidal wave of fan backlash, unwarranted drama, and a whole lot of people suddenly way too invested in her love life. But instead of clapping back, she’s been clapping, grinding in the gem sessions.
This week, Kayla posted a gym video that had the internet talking. Dressed in sleek lavender leggings and a faded gym top, and a few turned heads on the internet. Now, was it a subtle “Hey, your loss” to Kelce? Maybe. Was it just another day in the gym for her? Probably. Either way, you can’t hit your pause button. Gotta keep going with the flow. So maybe it’s just her living life one day at a time.

Kayla has made it clear that she’s not here to dwell on the past. She’s got a brand, Tribe Therepē, dedicated to self-care and wellness. She’s co-hosting REVOLT Sports, bringing fresh energy to sports media. And when it comes to fitness? She’s got a cheat code—literally.
“Full-body workouts are really the cheat code,” she once wrote, before breaking down exactly how she stays in insane shape: strength and cardio circuits, hip thrusts that would make a powerlifter proud, and enough core work to make even NFL athletes sweat.
So, is Travis Kelce really missing out? Probably not. He is already in his pop-star era. Good for Kayla, he has moved way past her relationship. And those of you who were worried about Trav. Well, let’s just say he’s chalking a serious ‘Love Story’ with Tay-Tay.
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift might be open for the next step
Travis Kelce’s returning next season for his number 13. And the writing was on the walls, especially after the SB LIX defeat. If so close, yet so far was a team (the Chiefs postgame!). I mean, father time was already visible last season for the #87. But on the flip side, Taylor Swift went on a memorable run last year, breaking every concert record in sight with her Era’s Tour.
The duo was there for each other, through the thick and thin. Trav making it to some of Tay-Tay’s concerts even during the regular season. Heckling between dubs on the gridiron and in life. And then Swift appearing at the Arrowhead to scream her lungs out at every points scored by the KC.
So, don’t blame the fans for increasing the decibel of the long-term phrasing of a relationship—like marriage and babies. And when NFL legends like Rob Gronkowski start chiming in, you know the speculation has officially entered the red zone.
It all started with a dinner date in New Orleans. Kelce and Swift were spotted dining with Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, and according to insiders, “baby talk” was a big part of the night. Brittany, who just welcomed her second child, reportedly shared photos, sparking a conversation about parenting. Just casual small talk? Maybe.
But when Gronk went on a podcast and straight-up said they should have a kid, the internet exploded. “That would be a great kid,” Julian Edelman added, while Gronk joked the future Swift-Kelce baby would “dominate the Super Bowl and perform the halftime show.” Honestly? Not even a crazy thought.
Now, the rumor mill is running even hotter with reports that Taylor is taking a rare gap year in 2025. No touring, no major projects—just time to focus on her personal life. “For the first time in years, Taylor has no definitive plan,” a source shared.
So, is this all just wild fan speculation, or are we looking at a future Kelce dynasty? No official word from the couple. Only one: that they are very much in love. That is all what matters.
