Kayla Nicole said, “I never referred to myself as a W.A.G…I think that dating an athlete is a choice and can be a challenge for any woman because I think that their schedules require a lot”.
She added, “…You find yourself kind of putting your goals and your dreams on the back burner to support theirs…And I will stand on this hill that dating men in general is a challenge.”
Kayla Nicole said, “It’s men that are the problem these days.”
Kayla Nicole and Travis Kelce were together for close to five years. While their relationship began in 2017, the couple went through a rocky phase several times in their relationship.
