A rumor suggesting that Kelsea Ballerini and Craig Conover are dating has just been debunked. The country singer first became attached to the Southern Charm star after a 2014 cameo on the show.
During the brief on-screen moment, she placed a bid for a date with Craig as part of a charity auction. Now, recent rumors have suggested that they circled the block and finally became an item.
The romance rumors have been laid to rest
The latest rumor about Craig and Kelsea started when a Bravo podcaster claimed with “good authority” that the two were dating. The post included a side-by-side picture of the two, and the comments exploded with speculation about their romance.
Although it would be cute to see them have a full circle moment after their charity auction, and we do know that Kelsea recently split from her boyfriend Chase Stokes, sources close to the stars told TMZ that there’s no truth to this rumor. Their only known connection is that 2014 cameo on Southern Charm.
That hasn’t stopped the rumor mill from chugging along. The person who started the rumor in the first place reacted to TMZ’s comments and revised their story to say the pair “allegedly hooked up” and had dinner together. Stay tuned to see if insiders want to debunk that, too.
In the meantime, we can revisit Kelsea’s previous comments about the infamous Southern Charm cameo. Last year, she opened up about the moment and said she didn’t even know she was being filmed for the show. Her career blew up shortly after, and the date that she bid on never actually happened.
Kelsea also said that the moment with Craig continues to “haunt” her. Rumors like this are exactly why.
Southern Charm is streaming on Peacock.
