Travis Kelce’s Ex Kayla Nicole and Patrick Mahomes’ Brother Spotted in Photos Together Ahead of Super Bowl

Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, has been spotted spending time with Patrick Mahomes’ younger brother, Jackson Mahomes, in Las Vegas just days before the Kansas City Chiefs take on the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII.

Nicole, 32, and Jackson, 23, were photographed standing together at the Aria High Limit Lounge on Thursday, Feb. 8, according to TMZ Sports. Photos of their interaction showed Nicole wearing black pants and a purple-and-white jacket as she stood beside Jackson, who looked down at his phone as they chatted. The two reportedly spent about an hour together, though it was unclear if they planned to meet each other or not.

Nicole, who has worked as an on-air reporter for ESPN and Barstool Sports, began dating Kelce in 2017. The couple dated for about five years on and off.

After Kelce’s relationship with pop star Taylor Swift went public last fall, Nicole took a strong stance against dating professional athletes.

"I'll never say never, but I fully, wholeheartedly believe that I am out of the athlete stage,” Nicole said during an appearance last month on the Behind the Likes podcast.

Meanwhile, Nicole has distanced herself from Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, who became friends with Swift since the “Blank Space” singer began dating Kelce. Nicole publicly unfollowed the Chiefs quarterback and his wife on social media last fall, explaining to People that she did so to “protect” herself.

As Nicole shifted away from some members of the Mahomes family, fans took note of a flirty comment Jackson left on one of her December 2023 Instagram posts. Two months later, the new sighting of the pair spending time together in Las Vegas is likely to stoke further speculation on the status of their friendship.
