Speculation is swirling among fans who believe that Kayla Nicole, the former girlfriend of NFL star Travis Kelce, has subtly criticized both Kelce and his fiancée, pop sensation Taylor Swift.
This Halloween, Nicole made a bold statement by dressing as R&B legend Toni Braxton, recreating scenes from the music video for Braxton’s 2000 hit “He Wasn’t Man Enough For Me.”
The song, known for its pointed lyrics, features Braxton singing lines like, “Did you know about us back then? Do you know I dumped your husband, girlfriend?”
The lyrics continue with, “I’m not thinking ’bout him / But you married him / Do you know I made him leave?”
Another notable line includes, “Do you know he begged to stay with me? / He wasn’t man enough for me.”
Fans in the comments section of Nicole’s Halloween post speculated that her choice was a not-so-subtle jab at Kelce and Swift.
‘TMZ is about to have a time with this post. Theeee perfect costume + song! YOU ARE HER!’ commented one.
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Bozoma Saint John wrote, ‘YOU CLEARED THE ROOM!!!!! Omg. The level of petty, slayage and pure decimation needs to be studied.’
Fans are convinced that Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole has thrown shade at the NFL star and his fiancée Taylor Swift with her Halloween costume

The costume comes after speculation that Swift, 35, dissed Nicole on her new track Opalite — a song she’s admitted is about Kelce, 36, whom Nicole dated on and off for five years until 2022.
Lyrics like, ‘You couldn’t understand it, why you felt alone / You were in it for real, she was in her phone / And you were just a pose,’ were quickly pegged as a dig at Nicole, who Kelce once publicly scolded for constantly being on her phone.
In one resurfaced clip, Kelce is heard telling Nicole at dinner, ‘Oh my God. Get off your phone… You’re not even drinking your wine anymore, can we go?’
Nicole dated Kelce on and off from 2017 to 2022. Over those five years they were often at A-list events together.
Taylor announced her engagement to NFL star Kelce in August.
In the past year, Nicole has repeatedly been questioned about her dating life with ex Kelce.
She said that she’s done romancing athletes and would rather have a relationship with an executive of a record label or a movie producer.
When trolls lashed out at her for talking about Kelce after their split she countered, ‘Life handed me lemons and I made a lemon martini out of it and that upsets people.’

Earlier this year, the influencer was one of the celebrity contestants on season three of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.
She won the series alongside reality star and DJ Brody Jenner.
Meanwhile, Kelce was the inspiration for Swift’s latest album, The Life of a Showgirl.
Of all the tracks on Swift’s twelfth album, the one that attracted the most immediate attention was the ninth track: ‘Wood’.
Chock full of innuendo, Swift brags about Kelce’s proficiency in bed and how ‘His love was the key that opened my thighs’ among other remarks.
In the two weeks since that album and track were released, Kelce appears to be putting up better stats on the field.
