Kelsea Ballerini responded to a recent rumor suggesting that she was dating Southern Charm star Craig Conover after an influencer mentioned the claim on TikTok.
As an insider insisted their initial report was true, claiming that Kelsea, 32, and Craig, 37, were recently together in New York City and sharing details about where they got their info, the country singer reacted to the TikTok clip in an apparent effort to shut down the allegation.
“It ain’t [true],” Jordy Cray declared in a video shared on April 14. “Kelsea is tired. I am shutting this sh*t down right now.”

Following the sharing of the clip, Kelsea “liked” the post.
Meanwhile, in the comments section of a post Your Moms Are Watching shared on Instagram, which contained the rumor about Craig and Kelsea, the fan page shared more details.
“Has she actually spent time with him?” a fan asked.
“They were just in NYC together probably trying to make sure they don’t run into Paige,” the outlet sarcastically replied, giving a nod to Craig’s ex-girlfriend, Paige DeSorbo, 33.
Another person wrote, “Kelsea denied this. TMZ, too. Guess you shouldn’t ‘trust your source’ so much.”
But, according to Your Moms Are Watching, their source was close to Craig.
“The source is a friend of Craig,” they stated. “Dating is a loose term but he said they are def hooking up. I am not surprised she is denying it look at this comment section.”
Southern Charm season 12 is currently in production.
