Chase Stokes Celebrates Kelsea Ballerini’s Birthday With Sweet Message

Chase Stokes is raising a toast to his favorite cowgirl.  

On September 12, when Kelsea Ballerini celebrated her 32nd birthday, she took to social media to express a tender and hopeful message about their shared future.

Though you repeatedly express your lack of enthusiasm for turning 32, I must confess that I’m quite looking forward to more of these moments,” Chase posted in his Instagram caption alongside a picture of the two enjoying a basketball game together. “Happy birthday, my dear!

Beyond the love, there were more moments to cherish. The actor from The Marked Men: Rule + Shaw shared some recollections from their two-year relationship, such as flying on a plane together, dining, sharing time with their pets, and spending backstage hours at one of her performances.

On previous occasions, Chase, aged 32, has celebrated Miranda Lambert’s birthday. In fact, he presented her with multiple gifts on her 31st birthday last September, which also happened to be the day they both attended the premiere of his Netflix film “Uglies”.

He shared with TopMob News during the event that he had managed to surprise her and all of her closest friends had flown in especially for the occasion. They were present at the event, though she was unaware of this fact. In the green room, we’ve prepared a birthday cake and tequila shots as a surprise for her.

It’s clear that Chase and Kelsey’s relationship has withstood the recent breakup rumors, as evidenced by their latest birthday message exchange. Kelsey, who began dating Chase in February 2023 following her divorce from Morgan Evans, provided a glimpse into what keeps their bond so strong.

And while they share the same energy, it truly comes down to their rock-solid foundation.

In an interview with People magazine in April, she shared that during her formative years, she didn’t have a clear model for what a strong relationship looked like. Now, however, her concept of love is stable, genuine, and something they both actively work on together. To her, this dedication to personal growth and commitment towards each other is the most attractive aspect – even expressing a readiness to attend therapy together if needed. This openness to working on their relationship individually and collectively represents a fresh kind of love for her.
