Patrick Mahomes’ brother Jackson “likes” Kayla Nicole’s viral post seemingly shading ex-boyfriend Travis Kelce and fiancee Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, turned heads on Halloween with an Instagram post that many fans interpreted as a subtle dig at the Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his fiancée, Taylor Swift. Nicole dressed as singer Toni Braxton, recreating the music video for Braxton’s hit, “He Wasn’t Man Enough”.

In the video, she danced and lip-synced the lyrics:“Do you know I dumped your husband, girlfriend? … Do you know he begged to stay with me? He wasn’t man enough for me.

” The timing and content of the post quickly sparked speculation that it was aimed at Kelce and Swift, who got engaged in August after more than two years of dating.

Social media reactions and confirmations

The post drew attention not just from fans, but from notable figures in sports and entertainment.

Jackson Mahomes, younger brother of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, liked the post, as did Claire Kittle, wife of San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle. Their engagement on social media amplified the buzz surrounding the post. Nicole’s director, Shaun Andru, who choreographed the dance, appeared to confirm the post was a reference to Kelce and Swift through a TikTok video.

That apart, Nicole’s close friend, Tatiana Elizabeth, commented on the post, referencing Swift’s 12th studio album, Life As A Showgirl, which was released in October, further fueling speculation that the post was intended as a playful yet pointed diss.

Nicole and Kelce had an on-again/off-again relationship spanning five years before splitting permanently in 2022, giving added context to the post and the reaction from fans.

Travis Kelce focuses on football despite off-field drama

Amid the social media chatter, Travis Kelce has remained focused on the Kansas City Chiefs and the team’s Week 9 matchup against the Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York. Kelce has been productive this season, with 474 yards and three touchdowns on 37 receptions, helping the Chiefs to a 5-3 record.

The Bills, led by last season’s MVP quarterback Josh Allen, provide one of the toughest challenges on the Chiefs’ schedule.

Kelce is expected to play a key role in helping his team secure a win, proving that on the field, the focus is all business. While fans and social media watchers continue dissecting Nicole’s Halloween post, Kelce’s attention remains on football, reminding everyone that no matter the drama off the field, the game must go on.Also read: Chargers linebacker Daiyan Henley’s brother cause of death: 34-year-old Jabari Henley fatally shot in suspected targeted attack, police confirm
