Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes are no longer callin’ dibs on their relationship.
Kelsea Ballerini and her boyfriend, Chase Stokes of *Outer Banks*, have split up after almost three years together, according to a representative for Ballerini who confirmed the news to *People* magazine on September 14th.
TopMob News has reached out to reps for comment and has not yet heard back.
This update comes just two days after Chase shared a sweet tribute to Kelsea for her 32nd birthday.
He posted photos of them together on Instagram on September 12th with a birthday message for her, playfully acknowledging her claims that she wasn’t thrilled about turning 32. He wrote, “Happy birthday my love. I’m really looking forward to more moments like these!”
Before Chase shared a sweet message, people were speculating that he and Kelsea had broken up. While they didn’t confirm or deny the rumors, Chase seemed to respond to the talk in early August by posting a photo of Kelsea’s dog, Dibs.
Just a year ago, Kelsea Ballerini-who was married to singer Morgan Evans from 2017 until their divorce in 2022-was talking about potentially marrying Chase Stokes.
She told Keltie Knight of TopMob News in October 2024 that she doesn’t rule anything out. She explained that she’s reconsidered things she previously dismissed, always challenging herself to re-evaluate past decisions.
At the time, Kelsea was focused on the “right now.”
“I’m happy,” she noted, “and everything is as it should.”
Kelsea’s relationship with Chase was even the subject of many songs on her album PATTERNS.
We’ve grown a lot through this experience, and we’ve pushed each other to improve, both as partners and as individuals. We truly work as a team now.
Kelsea explained that returning to her home base feels right, secure, and empowering.
