Taylor Swift treated Teyana Taylor to a delightful gift package, igniting curiosity online about whether there was an implied comment towards Travis Kelce‘s ex.

In case you missed it, Teyana and Kayla Nicole have a history … as Kayla hinted during a 2024 interview with Angel Reese, suggesting that Iman Shumpert left her for Teyana approximately ten years ago in a manner that was quite hurtful.

Just about a year ago, Kayla Nicole appeared on Angel Reese’s podcast where she discussed being dumped by an NBA player. She even dressed up as the girl he left her for during Halloween, which was aimed at Teyana Taylor. Recently, @taylorswift13 made an appearance on @jimmyfallon and… pic.twitter.com/WJ4sTUNgZX

Nicole seemed to suggest that her Halloween costume was a subtle jab at Teyana, reflecting their complicated past.

Teyana responded to Kayla’s insinuation by commenting on the “poor taste” of her words, deeming them “highly inappropriate.”

Teyana Taylor unleashed some fierce words towards Kayla Nicole:

This is absurd; why can everyone else make offensive comments while I’m expected to remain dignified? It’s my turn to have a little fun! pic.twitter.com/mMx0jYlSly

Teyana seemed to make an indictment of Kayla by choosing a Taylor Swift track as the background for one of her Instagram stories.

Although tensions seemed to cool over the last year, Swift appeared to spark them again during her appearance on “The Tonight Show” last week.

Swift’s fans noted that she mentioned Teyana during her interview—and many speculated it was a strategic shot at Kayla, particularly after Swift seemingly called out Kelce’s past flame in her evocative song “Opalite.”

Fans were convinced that Swift’s chatter with Jimmy Fallon was directed at Nicole, especially after Swift sent a thoughtful gift to Teyana this week.

The gift basket featured her latest album, a personal note, and a cozy crewneck sweatshirt.

While no one has explicitly confirmed a direct link between the events, Teyana expressed her appreciation for the gesture, posting a picture of the gift along with the message, “Thanks, Tay Tay!!”

The glamorous life of a showgirl surely has its thrills!
