The Travis Kelce Girlfriend Story: He Dated 50 Women At The Same Time
The budding love story between Kansas City Chiefs Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift has the whole world suddenly freaking out. The celebrity pair’s joint star power has managed to unite NFL fans and Swifties for the first and only time in history.
If this feels like a simple, whirlwind romance, then think it through. Travis might be a bigger Mastermind than Swift here. It all began on 8th July 2023 – just a day after Swift dropped Taylor’s version called “Speak Now“.
Travis was probably moved by the thesis of the album and decided to take a shot at Swift’s Eras Tour concert in Kansas City at the Arrowhead Stadium.
THB, the stunt was a pipe dream until Swift was spotted at Travis’ game on 24th September = that’s a love story right there!
For many of us, Swift put Kelce on the map (sorry, we know he is a famous athlete, but then…), and we have been itching to dig more into the Travis Kelce girlfriend story(s). Read on to find out more about the hottie’s dating history, including his former girlfriends and flings.
The Travis Kelce Girlfriend Story: Who Did The Athlete Date Before?
The Travis Kelce Girlfriend story is certainly interesting, considering that he dated 50 women at the same time. Isn’t that a red flag? Or is there more to the story? Let’s find out!
1. Maya Benberry: 2016
You will be surprised to know that Travis had his own dating show known as Catching Kelche on E! In 2016. At once, he dated around 50 women – one woman from every state. As per Salon, the whole concept was very overwhelming. As a result, Kelce would actually refer to every woman by the name of their state and not their actual name.
Eventually, Travis selected Maya Benberry from Kentucky, although he had multiple doubts about their basic compatibility, according to Page Six. The U.S. Sun reported how Kelce, at the time, said, “I love your confidence, but at times it does get overconfident. It kind of shows arrogance. I have been attracted to women like that my entire life, and those relationships didn’t work because of that.”
They ended up breaking up after some months when the show ended towards the end of 2016. Later, Maya accused him of cheating on her, as per Hollywood Life. Later, she took to Twitter and said, “When you and your ex broke up five months ago, but you find out via social media that he has supposedly been in another relationship for 6…” as per The Shade Room.
Overall, Travis had mentioned how the show was very awkward and that he had appeared on the same for financial reasons, as per The Pivot and TODAY.
2. Kayla Nicole: 2017 – 2022
The longest relationship of Travis Kelce was undoubtedly with Kayla Nicole. She is a model and sports broadcaster. As per Hollywood Life and Page Six, Travis and Kayla dated from May 2017 to 2022 – this was Kelce’s longest relationship.
A year post the breakup with his dating show girlfriend, Travis began to follow Kayla on Instagram – and there was definitely plenty of flirting at the time. Soon, the couple made things absolutely official.
At the time, Kelce spoke to E! about his relationship, “I was just stalking her, and then finally, on New Year’s, she gave in. And, you know, New Year, new me. She just shot her shot, jumped in my DMs, and the rest is history.”
The couple ended things for the time in August 2020. Rumors of Travis’ unfaithful behavior were everywhere, but the athlete denied the rumors on Twitter, according to TMZ. At the time, he wrote, “This is fake news… a lie… and not why Kayla and I broke up… take all your hatred somewhere else, please.”
Then, only a few months later, the couple got back together before breaking up for a second time during the month of May 2022. It is not very clear why they ended things. However, Barstool Sports reported that Nicole had ended things with Kelce because he would always go half-and-half for all payments.
But then came Kayla’s tweet about how this was false information, “Not sure where y’all got this nonsense from, but it’s absurd and very false.”
3. Zuri Hall: 2022 – 2023
In the month of October 2022, rumors began to circulate that Travis Kelce was going out with Zuri Hall, a correspondent for Access Hollywood, as per reports from Page Six. Barstool Sports reported that the singer was sitting in Kelce’s family suite at a Chiefs game.
Moreover, one of Kelce’s friends had also shared a video during that time that featured the new couple in the background, according to Hollywood Life.
During this time, fans also noticed how both Zuri and Kayla followed one another on social media platforms. But once the rumors began to circulate, the pair unfollowed one another. While neither of the members confirmed whether they dated officially, Travis had shared how he was mostly single this year.
The Travis Kelce Girlfriend Story: And Just Like That, It Was All About Taylor Swift
The Travis Kelce girlfriend story is incomplete if we miss out on Taylor Swift, the woman of the hour.
Yes, Kelce wasn’t successful in giving Kelce ‘that’ particular friendship bracelet, but they were able to connect. In fact, as per media reports, the pair was spotted hanging out on 12th September, and it was able to quickly catch everyone’s attention, according to Page Six.
Later, a gossip account known as DeuxMoi started saying that the pair had been going out with each other since July. A source close to the pair told The Messenger, “Taylor and Travis have been quietly hanging out. She saw him when she was in NYC a few weeks ago.”
In September, Jason Kelce, Travis’ brother, also confirmed how the rumors were 100% true, and that too live on WIP Morning Show. Of course, he immediately tried to ‘fix’ the situation and said that he was joking and did not really know what was cooking between the couple.
Of course, once Taylor appeared at the Chiefs game, her relationship with Kelce was a blatant confirmation. On 1st October, the paps spotted Travis leaving Swift’s apartment. The Lover singer took friends to her new boo’s game soon after that – including Sabrina Carpenter, Hugh Jackman, and Blake Lively.
Then there were those Mama Kelce-Swift moments! However, you know what was the most exciting part? The couple appeared on SNL together on 14th October. After the show, the paps spotted the couple holding hands in public.
Things are sure going well between the two – fingers crossed! For now, you go, girl – you go, Tay Tay!
