Chase Stokes Seemingly Confirms Romance With Kelsea Ballerini: 'We're Having A Good Time'

While Kelsea Ballerini beat around the bush in her TikTok post responding to dating rumors, Chase Stokes was more excited to talk about it. The "Outer Banks" star claimed the singer in a recent interview about their relationship. Stokes spoke about fitting in with Ballerini's culture rather than denying any of the rumors of their relationship.

The dating rumors came after Stokes posted a photo of him and Ballerini at a football game. However, in Ballerini's TikTok, she refused to make any direct comments on their relationship, asking fans to stop talking about it. The singer announced her divorce from husband Morgan Evans last August and is now focused on her music career.

Ballerini is presently getting ready to go on tour to promote her "SUBJECT TO CHANGE" album in March. Stokes will also grace fans' TV screens again in the third season of the Netflix show "Outer Banks," which premieres in February.

While Stokes didn't directly note that they were together, he was excited to talk about the dating speculations in an interview with TMZ.

When asked about the photo he shared of them at a game, he said, "She's a sweet girl. We're having a good time. That's all I'll say."

In response to whether he'd fit into Ballerini's Southern culture, the "Valiant One" actor assured that he grew up in the south himself and is already a part of the culture.

The dating rumors come after the duo was seen out together to watch a National Championship football game at the SoFi Stadium close to LA. The "Tell Me Your Secrets" actor then shared a series of photos four days later on Instagram, showing what he'd recently been up to.

The "Lil recap" as he captioned them, included a photo of him and Ballerini at the football game. Stokes' comments on the singer come after she shared a video addressing the speculations. However, Ballerini neither denied nor agreed with them.

Ballerini was quick to share a TikTok clip on January 16th joking about "breaking up with the internet 5 sure" in the caption for shipping her with the "Between Waves" actor. The star posed with a screenshot in the background, which implied that the two were in a budding romantic relationship.

While the "Little Things" singer didn't directly deny the rumors, she refused to share any hints about their relationship. Ballerini said, "know, I know, I know. Stop reading, stop reading. Stop looking. But what is happening, guys? What? Let's not do this."

Per E! News, the "Better Luck Next Time" singer announced via her Instagram story on August 29th, 2022, that she was divorcing Morgan. Ballerini explained that it was a "deeply difficult decision" and said she wanted to be honest about her personal life to fans.

While they loved each other and grew together, the relationship "ultimately came to an end." Ballerini also added that it was hard to talk about, but she was "grateful" to have spent that much time with him. She then noted that she was "hopeful for the next seasons" of her life.

The "SUBJECT TO CHANGE" singer released her fourth studio album with the same name in September 2022 and is getting ready for a tour. The star shared a graphic on IG, asking fans to sign up for presale tickets for her HEART FIRST tour, which begins in March. Ballerini also recently shared other photos, along with a fun caption, showing what she's been up to.

She wrote: "Road tripped back home to east Tennessee. dusted off some old songs. watched the sunset. had a menty b. took myself to dinner. caught up with dad. sang with one of my favs @gavindegraw. goooood for the soul few days."

On the other hand, Stokes can't wait to wow viewers with his performance in "Outer Banks" season three in February. He will also star in the upcoming sci-fi film "The Uglies," inspired by the 2005 novel of the same genre by Scott Westerfeld.
