Outer Banks Star Chase Stokes and Kelsea Ballerini Spark Dating Speculation

Kelsea Ballerini is best known for hit songs “Miss Me More,” “Hole in the Bottle,” and “Peter Pan,” which all topped the charts when they dropped. However, she might be dating ‘Outer Banks’ star Chase Stokes as hinted by the recent photo dropped by him.

Their romance rumors started to circulate after Stokes took to his Instagram to post a slew of photos on Friday. Ballerini could be seen leaning into Stokes in one particular picture as the two of them watched the National College Football Championship.

The “Peter Pan” songstress sat next to Stokes, who was dressed in a flannel shirt and a black baseball cap. The Tell Me Your Secrets alum tagged Ballerini’s Instagram account even though only the backs of their heads were visible in the picture.

“Lil recap,” Stokes wrote in the caption the photo dump. To which Ballerini commented, “go vols 🙈,” making reference to another college team that didn’t win the Championship.

As soon as Stokes shared the post, fans flocked to the comments section and made remarks about their “soft launch.” “KELSEA AND CHASE. 🚢,” one fan wrote. “I cant blame either of you i actually love both of you so much so i ship it,” wrote another user.

Neither Stokes nor Ballerini has made any public remarks about the status of their relationship. However, if they are indeed dating, it would be Ballerini’s first relationship in the public spotlight since she and her ex-husband, Morgan Evans, divorced in November.
