You may not know that Kelce had his own dating reality show on E! in 2016 called Chasing Kelce. The winner was Maya Benberry. “It’s been the craziest roller coaster of my life,” Kelce said at the time of the finale. “I am so excited to be with Maya and see how we grow as a couple and to see where our relationship can go.” They broke up after dating for eight months.

Kayla Nicole is seemingly Celse’s longest relationship. After breaking up with Benberry, in May 2017 his relationship with Nicole became public knowledge. TMZ reported that the two had been dating for approximately six months. They dated for 5 years, with speculation they broke up in 2020 before quickly getting back together, calling it quits for real in May 2022. When it came to the reason they broke up, there was a report by Barstool Sports that it was because Nicole thought he was “cheap.” Celse later shut down the claims telling The Pivot podcast in January 2023, “Don’t buy into that s-t!“ “I would never say that I was supporting her. She had a very financially stable life and what she was doing in her career. You’ve got to be crazy if you think I’d never helped or gave her a couple of dollars to grab some food or she gave me some money… We were in a relationship for five years. A hundred dollars here and a hundred dollars there wasn’t even thought about, which is ridiculous.” Nicole shut down the rumors on Twitter, “Not sure where y’all got this nonsense from, but it’s absurd and very false.”

Reports started linking Swift and Kelce on September 12 with a source telling the Messenger they were quietly hanging out. In an interview with the Pat McAfee Show, the Super Bowl winner said he thought it was “hilarious” how much traction the story was getting. He did admit that he “threw the ball in her court.“ ‘I’ve seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead, you might have to come to see me rock a stage at Arrowhead, and see which ones are a little more lit,‘” the 33-year-old said. Swift was later spotted leaving Arrowhead together after the game.
