Travis Kelce's Dating History, Including His Reality-TV Romance

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is currently linked to Taylor Swift, which means his dating history is now as important as his football stats (sorry, NFL fans, facts are facts).

It all started in July 2023, when Kelce said he was disappointed he didn't get to give Swift his number on a friendship bracelet at the Kansas City stop of her Eras tour. By September, rumors were swirling that the two-time Super Bowl champion and "Blank Space" singer were "hanging out." Then, Swift attended a Chiefs game on Sept. 24, cheering from the friends-and-family suite alongside Kelce's mom, and well,  let's just say Super Bowl came early.

So who else has Kelce dated? Read on for an accounting of the footballer's past girlfriends and flings.

Who else has Travis Kelce dated?

Maya Benberry

The dapper athlete starred on his own Bachelor-esque dating show, Chasing Kelce, on E! in 2016. The concept? Fifty women—one from each state—would vie for his heart. The winner? Maya Benberry, a marketing and brand consultant from Kentucky.

The two dated for just a few months before splitting, and although no reason for the breakup was given at the time, Maya has since claimed on more than one occasion that Kelce was unfaithful. In a deleted tweet from years back she wrote, “When you and your ex broke up five months ago but you find out via social media that he’s supposedly been in another relationship for 6…” (She was referring to his next relationship, with on-air sports reporter Kayla Nicole.)

Banberry resurfaced to warn Swift about her ex's alleged bad behavior shortly after Swift put football on the map by attending a Chiefs game (kidding!).

“Taylor seems like such a fun girl with a beautiful spirit, so I wish her the best of luck, but I wouldn’t be a girls’ girl if I didn’t advise her to be smart!” Benberry told DailyMail.com. “I’m sure by now she has mastered the ability to see who is really there for her—and who is just using her.”

“Only time will tell,” she continued. "But like the saying always goes: Once a cheater, always a cheater.”

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end started dating sports reporter Kayla Nicole in 2017 and they maintained and on-off romance for five years.

Their first public split came in August 2020 amid rumors Kelce was unfaithful, but the footballer denied those reports. “This is fake news…a lie…and not why Kayla and I broke up… take all your hatred somewhere else please,” Kelce tweeted (via TMZ).

The exes didn't give a reason for their final split, which came in May 2022, but a Barstool Sports report somewhat hilariously said that it was because Kelce made Kayla “pay half of everything.” Kayla herself shot down the claim. “Not sure where y’all got this nonsense from, but it’s absurd and very false,” she tweeted. She has not publicly commented on Kelce's latest romance.

Zuri Hall

Did Kelce formally date Access Hollywood correspondent Zuri Hall? Hard to say. At the very least, he invited her to a Chiefs game in October 2022. Of course, "he invited her to a Chiefs game" is the entire basis for his reported relationship with Swift, so make of that what you will.
