EXCLUSIVE: Travis Kelce’s ex Maya Benberry warns Taylor Swift to stay AWAY from ‘unfaithful’ NFL star – urging her to ‘be smart’ and realize he is ‘just using her’: ‘Once a cheater, always a cheater’

Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Maya Benberry has issued a stark warning to Taylor Swift to stay vigilant amid her budding new romance with the NFL hunk, after previously accusing him of being unfaithful during their short-lived relationship.

Benberry, 31, dated the Kansas City Chiefs tight end for several months after winning his E! dating reality series Catching Kelce in 2016.

However, they soon split and the reality star went on to accuse the Super Bowl champ of cheating on her when he embarked on his next relationship with sports broadcaster Kayla Nicole in a series of now-deleted tweets.

Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com about her ex’s headline-grabbing connection with superstar singer Swift, Benberry warned: ‘Once a cheater always a cheater.’

She said: ‘Taylor seems like such a fun girl with a beautiful spirit so I wish her the best of luck but I wouldn’t be a girls’ girl if I didn’t advise her to be smart!

‘I’m sure by now she has mastered the ability to see who is really there for her – and who is just using her.’

The marketing and brand consulting expert continued: ‘I can only hope that she comes out the teacher in this situation and not the student.’

Benberry, who also works as a life coach, said she can only share advice based on ‘the man that I knew him to be when we dated’, before adding: ‘Only time will tell but like the saying always goes, once a cheater, always a cheater.’

A source close to Kelce later denied the accusations, labeling her comments ‘a poor excuse of someone trying to get her 15 min of fame’.

Benberry accused him of ‘hypocrisy’ and asked: ‘If he can speak on his experience, why cant I?’

The TV personality starred in E! dating reality series, Catching Kelce, alongside 49 other women as contestants from all 50 states competed for the NFL player’s affection and love.

The two only dated for a few months following the show’s end before they went their separate ways.

Soon after, she accused the professional sports star of cheating on her in a series of since-deleted tweets.
