Cheating rumors began sprouting up after Travis Kelce and Kayla Nicole first broke up in 2020. According to TMZ, Nicole supposedly kicked Kelce to the curb after discovering he’d been cheating. However, Kelce killed that rumor at the root. “This is fake news … a lie .. and not at all why Kayla and I broke up,” tweeted the Kansas City Chiefs star at the time (via TMZ). “Take all your hatred somewhere else, please,” Kelce added. Interestingly, this wasn’t the first time Kelce was accused of cheating. Near the start of his relationship with Nicole, Kelce’s ex, Maya Benberry, implied that he’d cheated on her with Nicole. “When you and your ex broke up five months ago but you find out via social media that he’s supposedly been in another relationship for 6 …” tweeted Benberry in 2017 (via the New York Post).
Kelce also spoke out after he and Nicole broke up for the second time in 2022. Following that breakup, an anonymous source told Barstool Sports Kelce was a tightwad who didn’t financially support Nicole during their romance. During his episode of “The Pivot Podcast,” Kelce debunked that rumor. “Don’t buy into that s**t,” said Kelce (via TMZ). While Kelce admitted he didn’t fully support Nicole because she didn’t need financial help, he also revealed that he did contribute to her life in other ways. “A hundred dollars here, a hundred dollars there wasn’t even thought about,” added Kelce.
