Kayla Nicole had zero interest in commenting on her ex-boyfriend Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce\u2019s engagement with mega pop star Taylor Swift.<\/p>\n

The host of \u201cThe Pre-Game\u201d podcast dodged the subject during a red carpet interview with a\u00a0Daily Mail\u00a0<\/a>reporter, who directly asked Nicole, \u201cDo you have any comment on Travis\u2019 engagement?\u201d<\/p>\n

Nicole replied, \u201cOh, no, no, no, but I\u2019m really happy to be here at Champion, though! This is a dope party.\u201d <\/p>\n

The influencer, who was smirking and awkwardly looked away, attended the House of Champion Fashion Week event by Sports Illustrated in New York on Thursday night. <\/p>\n

Nicole and Kelce, 35,\u00a0dated on and off from 2017-22\u00a0before calling it quits.<\/p>\n

Kelce and Swift\u00a0announced their engagement Aug. 26 on Instagram, sharing a carousel of photos taken in a garden filled with pink and white flowers in the backyard of his Leawood, Kan. estate.<\/p>\n

Nicole confirmed she is single when the Daily Mail reporter said \u201ca lot of males are asking if you\u2019re single or not.\u201d <\/p>\n

Nicole, who seemed surprised, replied, \u201cReally?\u201d adding, \u201cTell them yes I am, whoever is asking, absolutely!\u201d <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

When asked about her type of man, Nicole explained that she\u2019s looking for a \u201cspontaneous\u201d family man.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, I love a very honest man,\u201d she said. \u201cA man of really great character. Someone who likes to have fun, spontaneous, great relationship with their family, has really good girlfriends \u2014 the list is long.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, the \u201cSpecial Forces\u201d alum explained that she changed her dating habits<\/a> in order to protect herself and those close to her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think I ever want to publicly date another\u00a0man until I am absolutely sure that they are my long-term person,\u201d Kayla said on her podcast in April. \u201cJust because I want to protect the things that mean most to me.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd sometimes when you\u2019re a little too open \u2026 and transparent, you open yourself up to a world of opinion a world of entitlement, people want answers.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople think that you owe them an explanation about every single thing in your relationship \u2026 I just want to be able to love without the pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kayla Nicole had zero interest in commenting on her ex-boyfriend Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce\u2019s engagement with mega…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":362636,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[7,110,12966,6,9,10,4205,500,33],"class_list":{"0":"post-362635","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-kansas-city-chiefs","10":"tag-kayla-nicole","11":"tag-nfl","12":"tag-sports","13":"tag-sports-entertainment","14":"tag-taylor-swift","15":"tag-travis-kelce","16":"tag-wags"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115192450538578634","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/362635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=362635"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/362635\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/362636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=362635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=362635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=362635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
