Travis Kelce’s Ex Just Shaded Taylor Swift After Calling Him A ‘Cheater’

How did Travis Kelce’s ex Maya Benberry shade Taylor Swift?

Page Six reported that Maya Benberry liked a comment that was shading Taylor Swift. “On everything you are 🔥🔥🔥 and Travis gotta hold the L 😂 he out side [sic] in public with a FRAIL GAIL Taylor Swift who beside her fame is 5,” one person commented on her Instagram post on Monday. As of writing this, the like has been removed.

Earlier in the day, Maya Benberry spoke out in an interview with DailyMail UK about advice she would give Taylor Swift. “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!” she said. “I’m sure by now she has mastered the ability to see who is really there for her – and who is just using her.”

She continued, “I can only hope that she comes out the teacher in this situation and not the student.’

Benberry added that she can only give advice about “the man that I knew him to be when we dated.” She then warns the Midnights artist, “Only time will tell but like the saying always goes, once a cheater, always a cheater.”

In screenshots of deleted tweets captured by The Shade Room, Maya Benberry allegedly claimed that Travis Kelce was in another relationship while they were still dating.

“When you and your ex broke up 5 months ago but you find out via social media that he’s supposedly been in another relationship for 6…” she posted on Twitter (now known as X). “A lot of overlapping here…” she added, “Especially when I have texts from him from February claiming he was single.”

Kelce has not confirmed or denied if the claims were true. He entered a relationship with Maya Nicole in 2017. The two started dating after some Instagram interactions together. “He had been following me and insta-flirting for a few months,” she revealed in an Instagram Story. “All double taps and no dm. Soooo after a little liquid courage and a pep talk from @iqueenb (something along the lines of ‘WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR’) I dm’d him on New Years.”

“I didn’t just go through every single pic and just start liking it immediately,” Kelce clarified with E! News. “It was over the course of a month’s span, just following her and liking the pictures that she was posting and watching all of her stories when stories had first started coming out.”

Is Taylor Swift dating Travis Kelce?

Is Travis Kelce dating Taylor Swift? It’s not confirmed or denied just yet. Things might have been confirmed after Taylor was spotted with Travis’ mom in a suite at Arrowhead Stadium and celebrating a touchdown that Travis scored. Right after the game, they drove down in Travis’ convertible to an intimate dinner together.

Right before the outing, Travis seemingly confirmed that the reports about trying to give his number to Taylor were true. “I said what I said. And I meant what I said when I said it. And you know what, it is what it is,” he said, before playing it coy about their relationship status on NFL+ With Andrew Siciliano. “I’m not gonna talk about my personal life,” he added.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end went on to playfully tease listeners. “I know what you writers wanna hear, and you wanna hear more about that and I’m not gonna give you anything,” he joked while pointing a finger at the camera.

Andrew pressed him for more, however. “Has she reached out?” he asked, to which Travis remained tight lipped. “And that’s gonna wrap it up here,” he said, ending the interview.

NFL commentators haven’t taken a break from these rumors and took every chance to tease the player. When Travis scored a touchdown against the Jacksonville Jaguars, commentator Ian Eagle quipped, “Kelce finds a blank space for the score,” making reference to Taylor’s song “Blank Space” from her 1989 album, adding later that the champion tight end could “shake it off” after suffering a knee injury in practice a few weeks prior, another reference to a T-Swift song, “Shake It Off”.

NFL Network’s Rich Eisen chimed in with the banter on Twitter with a rollcall of Swift hits while covering Kelce’s return to the field, including “Delicate,” “Anti-Hero” and “August.” Sharing a clip of the broadcast via Instagram, Eisen wrote in the caption, “Look what you made me do, @killatrav.” Kelce responded: “Well played Rich… Well played 👏🏻😂”

Even Travis’ own brother Jason Kelce who plays for the Philadelphia Eagles (Taylor’s hometown team) teased his brother. He explained on the “WIP Morning Show,”  “It’s hard to answer because I don’t really know a lot about what’s happening with Travis’ love life,” and added that he was “blindsided” by the speculation.  He called the rumor “out of that world” before saying, “But having said that, man, I think they’re doing great, and I think it’s all 100 percent true and I hope that this thing goes the mile.”

He then cleared up what he said by saying he was joking and that he stays out of his brother’s business, “No I’m joking. I don’t even know what’s happening.”
