Reports suggested that it was the model who dumped the Chiefs star because of his tight grip on his money. Travis Kelce reportedly used to split all the bills in half between him and Kayla. However, the tight end denied all these rumors when he appeared on ‘The Pivot Podcast’.
“How crazy is that?! Don’t buy into that sh*t! We were in a relationship for 5 years… A hundred dollars here and hundred dollars there wasn’t even thought about, which is ridiculous,” he said.
Travis Kelce further mentioned that Nicole was self-dependent and didn’t need his support. The model, on the other hand, also eventually called all those rumors false. This further means that there was some other reason for their split, but no one knows about it yet.
