Patrick Mahomes’ brother, Jackson Mahomes, is still friendly with Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole.
Jackson, 23, admired Nicole's recent Instagram carousel, commenting "So pretty!" on the photos she shared on Friday, December 8. In response, the 31-year-old model thanked him with a heart emoji. The slideshow showcased Nicole in jeans and a green jacket, complete with a baseball cap and sunglasses.
"She captioned the post with, 'Studies show that people who mind their own business are 135% happier than those who don't. Some of y'all should try it.' This isn't the first time Jackson has shown Nicole love online. In addition to hyping her up on her posts, Jackson has also shared photos of the twosome on his respective page over the years."
Jackson’s most recent mention comes two months after Nicole stopped following his brother, aged 28, and Patrick’s spouse, Brittany Mahomes, on Instagram when they began spending time with Kelce’s new girlfriend, Taylor Swift. Nicole and Kelce, aged 34, had an on-again, off-again relationship for five years before officially ending things in May 2022. She later shared her reasons for cutting ties with the Mahomes family.

Nicole, 31, spoke to People in October, stating, "I believe it's important to publicly address this because I did publicly unfollow people. The truth is I know these people personally, and I have communicated to them in real life why I had to make the decisions I made."
She also clarified that she had "conversations" with Brittany, 28, before unfollowing her.
Nicole explained that people often assume that a breakup means cutting off all contact forever, but that's not the reality for her. She maintains ongoing relationships with everyone involved, including Brittany, whom she loves. Nicole acknowledged that there is a lot of history and friendship that doesn't change overnight, but she has to protect herself due to the rapid and public nature of the situation. Despite this, she emphasized that the love is still there.
