In a star-studded Super Bowl commercial, sports journalist Kayla Nicole, the ex-girlfriend of Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, appeared to make a veiled reference to Kelce and his fiancé, Taylor Swift.
The ad, for a fictional service called "Simons & Haddish," featured comedians and athletes joking about the aftermath of high-profile breakups. Nicole gave a testimonial, quipping about the service's promised speed. In the script, co-star Ben Simmons corrected her, insisting he had said "swiftly," a line many viewers interpreted as a nod to Taylor Swift.
Nicole and Kelce dated from 2017 until their breakup in 2022. She has previously spoken about receiving online harassment from some Taylor Swift fans simply for being Kelce's former partner, though she stated the split was amicable.
