It looks like Angel Reese, fresh off a historic rookie season in the WNBA, is not only dominating the court but also stirring up some off-court buzz. While recovering from an injury that sidelined her, Reese decided to launch her podcast, Unapologetically Show, because why not add podcast host to her already impressive resume? And in true Reese fashion, her latest episode features none other than Kayla Nicole, the ex-girlfriend of Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end and Taylor Swift’s current beau, Travis Kelce. Now, if you thought Reese was just going to chat about basketball, think again—she’s diving right into the gossip pool!
The Million-Dollar Question: Did Travis Kelce Really Split the Bills with His Ex?
For some strange reason, a rumor has been circulating for years that Kelce, NFL superstar and guy who could probably buy an island, allegedly split bills 50/50 with Kayla Nicole during their relationship. (Yes, you read that right.) And on Reese’s show, it was time for Kayla to set the record straight. In a moment of pure gold, Kayla quipped, “Do I look like anybody that would split anything?”
Cue the awkward silence—and puzzled looks from fans, especially the Swifties, who never miss a chance to defend their pop queen’s new flame. Could this rumor have hurt Travis’s rep? Probably not, considering he’s too busy locking down the Chiefs’ offense and Taylor Swift. But hey, it makes for juicy podcast content!
Travis Kelce: More Focused on Touchdowns Than Takedowns (Except for Those Swiftie Rumors)
While Nicole is out here clearing up old rumors, Travis is busy doing what he does best—winning games and winning hearts. He’s still riding high as Swift’s rumored beau (with pregnancy whispers swirling—yikes, Swifties, calm down), and his eyes are firmly set on leading the Chiefs to a three-peat. Honestly, does Kelce even care if people think he split the bills? Probably not. With Swift in his corner and his team aiming for history, he’s too busy living the dream. As Reese playfully brought up Kelce and Swift multiple times during the episode, it felt like she might’ve been trying to rile up the Swifties a little. After all, if there’s one thing we know about Swift fans, they bring attention—whether it’s good or bad. And attention means more downloads for Reese’s new podcast. Genius move, Angel!
Angel Reese: WNBA Rookie Phenom, Podcast Pot-Stirrer
But let’s not get too far off the basketball court, where Angel Reese made her name. Sure, she might be creating a splash with her podcast, but her rookie season in the WNBA was nothing short of record-breaking. She led the league with an insane 13.1 rebounds per game, and her 5.1 offensive boards per game? Absolutely bonkers. Reese even became the first WNBA player to have three consecutive games with 20+ rebounds. She’s out there snatching boards like Kelce snatches touchdowns. If she keeps up this trajectory, she could very well become the GOAT of rebounding.
That’s not to say she’s perfect—Reese has some things to work on, like her shooting mechanics. I mean, sure, nobody’s perfect, but 39.1% from the floor could definitely use some fine-tuning. Still, when you’re setting historic numbers in other categories, it’s hard to complain. But let’s hope next season she’s able to rebound and rain down some buckets.
Final Thoughts: Reese Isn’t Just a One-Trick Pony
Angel Reese may have missed out on Rookie of the Year honors (thanks, Caitlin Clark), but make no mistake—Reese is just getting started. Whether it’s snatching rebounds on the court or stirring the pot on her podcast, she’s keeping everyone entertained. And honestly, if her podcast keeps dishing out gems like the Kelce-Nicole bill-splitting saga, she might just become the go-to source for mixing sports and gossip.
In the meantime, we’ll be waiting to see if Travis Kelce or Taylor Swift chimes in with their take on the bill-splitting drama. Because, let’s face it, the Swifties are probably already drafting their tweets.
Until next time, stay unapologetic—just like Angel Reese.
