Kayla Nicole, who dated Chiefs star Travis Kelce for five years, says she’s done dating professional athletes, and now the fitness guru is opening up about the decision.

Nicole, 32, spoke candidly about her dating life during a recent appearance on Behind the Likes, a podcast focusing on social media influencers. “I’ll never say never, but I fully, wholeheartedly believe that I am out of the athlete stage,” Nicole said on the show.

The popular influencer, who officially called it quits with 34-year-old Kelce in 2022, continued, “I do think that I am attracted to men in positions of power, and I also think that those types of men are attracted to me.”

Nicole recalled attending “sporting events” – she regularly supported Kelce at Chiefs games with Brittany Mahomes – “because I have a jersey on with someone’s name on the back.”

Now, the former Lakers in-arena host says she “did that,” and while “it was fun” at the time, she’s concluded, “I’m good.”

While she’s not interested in athletes, Nicole said she’d still love to date someone who shares her passion for sports. “I would love to date an executive of a record label or a movie producer so that we can go to the sporting events. Let date night be courtside at the Laker game; that’s my kind of guy,” she said.
