Morgan Evans on how music helped him cope with Kelsea Ballerini divorce
Morgan Evans discussed how his new song "Over For You" helped him cope with all his emotions.
Kelsea Ballerini is taking control of the narrative when it comes to her relationship with actor Chase Stokes.
The singer-songwriter took to Instagram to squash rumors she and Stokes were in a PR relationship.
"Idk seems staged. Probably PR," she wrote beneath a photo of her sitting on Stokes' lap, which the actor had posted. She tacked on an upside-down smiley face emoji.
Spotted out together on several occasions, Ballerini confirmed her relationship with Stokes last month while on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast.

This is not the first time Ballerini has addressed the Stokes rumors head on.
Last month, the 29-year-old took to TikTok to address assumptions made about her relationship, referencing a post about her from a gossip site.

The post in question read in part, "She's too busy consistently asking out the manager at Soho House Nash when she comes in all the time after last call… This has to be a PR play," referencing a photo of Ballerini and Stokes.

"I know, I know, I know, I know, I know. I know," she lamented to the camera. "Stop reading. Stop reading. Stop looking."
"But what is happening, guys?" she asked her followers.
"What? What? What?" she said as she motioned to different parts of the message. "No — let's not do this, you know?"
The couple first sparked romance rumors after Stokes posted a carousel of photos to Instagram in January, with one featuring Ballerini.
The picture showed Ballerini and Stokes cuddled up in their seats at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Although their backs are to the camera, Stokes tagged the singer, so there was no confusion as to who he was sitting with. Ballerini commented on the post saying, "go vols" along with an emoji of a monkey covering its eyes.
