Kayla Nicole is looking carefree amid Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s romance.
After breaking her silence on her ex’s budding connection with the Grammy winner in a powerful open letter on Monday, Nicole posted Instagram thirst traps in a sexy backless dress.
“I actually prefer my dinner in a different country,” the model captioned the Tuesday social media slideshow.
The 31-year-old was all smiles in the brown halter, pairing the stunning ensemble with gold earrings, a matching bracelet and bedazzled sandals.
The photos were taken in Tuscany, Italy.
Nicole included more on her Story, including a video of herself walking away from the camera in slow motion in the slinky dress.
“best week celebrating you,” the on-air host captioned a photo of her friend Britanni Anderson in a white gown.
The sultry vacation snaps came one day after Nicole made headlines for her spoken statement combatting the “backlash and embarrassment” she has received amid Kelce and Swift’s romance.
Nicole, who was in an on-again, off-again relationship with the athlete from 2017 to 2022, told her followers on Monday that she has been told she’s “not successful enough, not wholesome enough … not intelligent enough.”
She noted, “On days I feel most inadequate, I have to remind myself that I am, have been and will always be more than enough.
“When the world gets dark and time gets hard and you feel like your back is against the wall and your hands are tied and nobody knows what it’s like to be you … this is only a small chapter in your story.”
Nicole added that there is “power” in her “silence,” and she knows she doesn’t have to “engage” by clapping back or participating “in this tumultuous, often one-sided journey.”
Her ex has yet to react to her post. However, Kelce’s teammate Patrick Mahomes’ brother, Jackson Mahomes, commented on it with multiple heart emojis.
Nicole grew close to the Mahomes family while dating Kelce, specifically forming a friendship with Patrick Mahomes’ wife, Brittany Mahomes.
Notably, Nicole unfollowed Brittany via Instagram earlier this month after the 28-year-old was photographed having a girls’ night in New York City with Swift, Blake Lively and Sophie Turner.
Swift has kept quiet about her and Kelce’s romance — but the singer did support the tight end at back-to-back NFL games in Missouri and New Jersey on Sept. 24 and Oct. 1.
Although the American Music Award winner did not attend Kelce’s game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Pvnew confirmed that the duo celebrated his 34th birthday together ahead of the match.
According to Us Weekly, the pair had a “chill night” together in Kansas City, Mo., before Swift returned to Nashville, Tenn.
